I may be a bit naive here. But I don't see that other than the hands, where the statement of "After viewing the Victoria 1 vs. Odyssey it was obvious to DAZ that they are the same map" fits. I'm sorry but I think the texture on the right is mounds better and if I had paid for the one on the right I'd be a bit upset. I don't remember which one belongs to whom now (and don't want to go to the top again). But I am confused since all textures follow the same lines and layout. An overlay only shows shadings and there are sufficient shading differences between the two to make me wonder. So I can honestly say I do not understand this at all. because I would think there would be matches in the overlays of any textures. Anyone want to take an absolute original that is not being questioned and overlay it on the Daz texture? (I don't have the daz texture or I would) I'd really like to understand the difference thing. But it is a good idea to not trust that textures can be modified, ran into that myself recently when someone told me I could modify a texture they sent as redistributable and turned out it wasn't quite that way. Sad, now what do we do for textures if we can't trust any in the free section?
