Quote - Personally I will continue to use modified V3 and Laura meshes, because despite V4's additional 69 (!) magnets I'm still dissapointed with her bending abilities.
(Among a lot of other things)But people will switch to V4 just because everybody does.
Especially the top merchants.V4 does have some improvements over V3, but so have AIKO and Laura.
I'm just thinking that completely breaking backwards compitability with V3 was more of a marketing than a technical decision.:biggrin:
Yeah, that is kind of what I was thinking.
I haven't had a chance to try V4 yet myself. What I've seen so far from other people's renders, I don't see really drastic improvement in facial expressions just yet. Then again, it seems to me that in V3, her facial expressions went largely unexploited.
Aside from a pure marketing point of view, I've been wondering why people like Ayery Soul or Blackhearted or few of the other 3D elites whom obviously have superb poser and 3D skills don't come up with a completely independent mesh of their own...
Second thought, even with the very popular V3 base, there's so many variations in morphs, that the clothes fitting is sort of a PIA. I wonder how much market they would really lose by an independent base mesh...
