Just be be clear, Apollo's eyes scale fine. On the eyes Taper was used to scale the iris larger and smaller. No huge loss in Studio.
That is fine Richard. You can use those examples. I am sure they already have read this thread but go fot it.
If Studio does turn out to be to porting tool of choice to other apps like Carrara, Bryce, etc, and it doesn't support Taper, I would be concerned about that ability being lost to those other apps too, especially apps being designed by Daz.
Studio isn't Poser. True. But most definately is the Poser file format. Either support the cr2 format completely, or do something original. Just because Daz doesn't use the Taper code does not mean they should make that decision for those who know how.
In reality I think they just never realized it was useful because they don't use the figures they make, V4 being the first of their figures, in 12 years and as many figures, that can even begin to scale properly.
Okay that is my pitch for Taper support. Either they will or they won't.
