Quote - Is that a published subdivision method that anyone can implement in their software? Because I'd rather stick with original Catmull-Clark with all it's limitations than go to something that Wings will never have because of the license fees.

Catmull-Clark subdivision isn't going anywhere, don't worry.  The problems with Rorrkon's model are a lot more due to terrible topology (no offense) than triangles anyhow.

In any case all that talk is a moot point; Poser's renderer (Reyes) does polygon smoothing at render time, albeit with a different mechanic and with different results.  EF/Smith Micro have never made noises that they want to provide subdivision as well, even though DAZ chose to.
