Quote - Actually aren't these the redistributable base figures as well that can be used to develop other figures?
Now that I think of it, as a base for developing a totally new figure, these can easily be used to look much differently.
How many polys was posette? She might even qualify as a low or med res figure now.

yes, you can do a lot with morphing assuming that the base shape is just a little off and the rest is actually modeled professionally. i constantly complain about vicky's base shape, but i do not deny that underneath it is a professional quality model. i look at every figure as basically one big lump of digital clay, but one look at the lacrimals, ears, nostrils, corners of the mouth, etc tells me that this is basically a write-off and i will never even try to work on it -- id rather model something from scratch.

for years now weve been waiting for poser to be 'professionalized', to be made into more of a viable app and less the laughing stock of the entire 3D community.  what does it say about the company at the helm when models like that are given the go-ahead? it would have been better to release it with no content at all than with such hideous abortions of anatomy.

whats sad is that if the company is full of coders and they lacked the modeling talent to create base content, then after a mere glance at their competition they should have immediately realized that this doesnt even come close to cutting it and hired it out to someone up to the task. hell, im sure there are dozens of people at rosity who would have volunteered their help just for the exposure.

it frightens me that the people at the helm of our flagship software are so out of touch with their own software's market.

had SM posted some sortof preview or actually interacted with the community this could have easily been remedied. its still not too late.

btw - where are the BETA testers that didnt speak up to the devs about this?
