Anyone out there using this?
Thanks

I looked it over, and it has a lot of features that make it attractive for someone trying to model Poser conforming clothing (as it's designed to).  One feature it doesn't have that I would really miss is point/polygon snapping:

For $40 it's not a bad investment imo, plus the 1 hour tutorial video.

Unfortunately it crashes with high poly, (V4 and I'm sure M4) characters. He hasn't had any updates since June so guess he isn't interested in supporting it. Went to his website says he's moving to another server but doesn't give a date when he'll be back. Thought this would be a quick alternative to Maya just to create some quick little items I wanted but should have saved my money. Would have gotten a refund but at first he seemed to have good support. Now no support.

Unfortunate :/ it looked like a decent little modeler.

oh, regarding the crashing: have you tried loading the character WITHOUT the textures? that is a lot of memory required...  even Cinema can act difficult if I have too much texture junk loaded.  Remember that even stuff like bump maps and transparency maps have to be uncompressed to 24-bit color, so any 4000x4000 map (even grayscale!) will take around 50mb.

I haven't had any problems with it since the first patch came out last April. It's fast, clean, and takes most of the headache out of modeling clothes. The multiple grouping features and simplified mapping set up are huge time savers for me.
Pegasus was pretty shaky when it launched last spring and it seems like most people wrote it off on the spot and at least in my opinion, unfairly ganged up on Mark. At the time Pegasus was a $30 modeler from a one-man operation, so I cut him some slack, got the patch, and I've been happy ever since.

As I had said over at Daz my problems with crashing was my video drivers. Might want to make sure your are the most recent.
