I'm afraid that V4, in its verious iterations, has eroded my confidence in DAZ as a creator of figures. They just don't seem able to ecplain things. Why this huge change to the morph system? Why installer filenames that don't get altered to reflect the changes? Why do the inanely limited readme files still refer to earlier versions of V4? We saw all this when they revamped the She-Freak figure from a seperate mesh to a set of injectable morphs. There's advantages to both, but they didn't tell you about the risk of overwriting the old model. And I'm not all that confident about their support for Poser. If you aren't set up to maximise Studio compatibility (things such as no extended runtimes) you're going to get bitten. You install for Poser, and get materials settings little better than for P4. And then I look at all the V3 stuff I have, and all the other unimesh figures, and my accumulated experience. and it becoems so hard to be enthusiastic about V4--one figure, with a few male morphs, compared to all the unimesh figures and textures and clothing. Just what is special about V4?
