Quick question about writing the SM CS team: would it do anything?  I know for a number of companies working with CS is a herculian effort just to get noticed, much less get something done.

Anyways, at the least P8 will need:
-Better lighting (glowing objects without gather, area lighting, gamma correction, etc)
-A better rigging system
-To stop hanging everytime I try to do anything
-A little faster rendering
-Less crashing or file corruption
-Hair room improvements
-Cloth room improvements

And I'd like to agree with opera guy on two things.  The first is I feel that was a marketing survey.  Now they might emphasise a feature their target audience wants, but I'm thinking they were looking for how to sell it most of all.  The other thing is the base characters should have as close to average looks as possible with this qualification: the models need to be rigged (and hopefully with all the morphs included) to make it as easy as possible to create the character you want.

WARK!
