"Second, a plug-in that works like this, only more seemlessly"(Ethesis) "I find it very odd that where it asks what other programs we use with Poser it omitts programs every Poser user actually uses all the time, such as UV Mapper, Correct Reference, Mimic, PBoost, etc, And also fails to ask anything about utilities such as The Tailer, Morph Manager, etc." (numanoid) UV Mapping would be nice. Oddly enough, it's already there in part, under the group editor (assign materials) in P4, PP, and P5. Unless you mean as it is used to create and map models for Poser, in which case you are talking about a tool to model, not one to use them. Poser is designed to use models that are already made. It is not a modelling tool. Mimic is an interesting tool, although I'm not sure it's fair to say that "everyone" uses it. I'd like to see features similar incorporated into Poser directly as well, but only so long as it doesn't increase the cost of the program (since they would either have to develop or license -- pay for -- an engine to do). Pboost is a content control system -- exactly what everyone has been asking for (and, oddly enough, something only needed now that the 3rd party creators have really kicked it up a notch. In a lot of ways, that dead time where nothing was done on developing Poser was a godsend to the community itself). The Tailor, Morph Manager, and Clothing Convertor are all awesome tools. The shifting of morphs from one figure to another, being able to adjust clothing more easily to fit, and so forth would all be wonderful. One of the benefits of dynamic cloth is that you can do exactly that, but dynamic cloth isn't the only type of clothing used. In fact, thus far, it's still the least used type. Although I'm not so sure the developers of those tools would be thrilled, lol. and still crazy...
