Quote - Yeah there are scaling issues. Poser uses propagating scaling, and Daz has never been able to figure out how to impliment that, so for Freak 4, they came up with something new, that unfortunately doesn't work properly in any version of poser.
Daz hopes that Smith Micro will release a service release with a fix for it, but IMHO I think smith micro thinks that daz should have used propagating scaling, which does work fine in all versions of poser.
I have a feeling, that it is just going to be one of those things that ds does that poser does not, just like all the things poser does, that DS does not.
Look at any of my plus sets.. they all work perfectly in all poser versions, but scaling does not work properly in DS, because DS doesn't emulate poser's scaling functions properly.
I've bug reported it to Daz for the last 4 years, so I don;t think we'lll ever see scaling implemented 100% in DS, because Daz now has an alternate solution they are happy with.
That's so typical for both of those companies. Instead of supporting each other, they're waiting for the other to take action to solve their own issues. Then they create a workaround that works only for them, thus creating even more problems.
If others with less resources then DAZ can figure out how to do propagating scaling, then DAZ can. I guess that says enough.
