To produce more precise, better bending figure joints, Poser 8 introduces a new falloff zone capsule shape and permits the use of multiple falloff zones.

This suggests that some work has gone into the Setup Room.  I'd be surprised if they haven't fixed the bugs this time.

I wonder how this new capsule-shape falloff zone will perform in Daz Studio.
