I think there must be a big difference between the Basic and Pro versions.  It appears to me that in every forum on this software that most users are using the basic version in DAZ Studio with the Vicky and Mike figures, and getting better results.  The Pro version, which requires importing OBJ files for other figures, is more complex and the program cannot adequately generate a decent map or OBJ with something "foreign" to it.  It also seems that selecting Mike or Vicky within FaceShop Pro (FSP) is flawed.

One improvement I mentioned in another thread is the ability to select a figure from a drop-down list.  Of course, you would have to be in possession of that model and have the OBJ file on your hard drive.  Having to export from Poser, import into FSP, then export again is just a P.I.T.A.

Also I've noticed that sometimes your imported figure in the right panel changes from face-front to face-down for no apparent reason.  This makes the dots and curves adjustments nearly impossible to obtain good results.  I didn't find anything in the poor documentation about changing the figure's position.

This is what Poser's Face Room should have been, but with more improvements.  Back to the drawing board with this one.
