ALL up to Freak 4.

Still pretty cool though!

Anything "Power Loader" or "Puppeteer" is DAZ|Studio support files, if you never use D|S then there isn't really any point in downloading that.

Since daz has made all base models free, maybe Renderosity should consider bringing back some of the v3,m3,a3,h3, etc. products as people DL the old stuff (lower price maybe) and start looking for things for those figures.

That's more a choice of the individual vendors to resubmit those items, I don't think Rendo will do that of their own accord.

I see this everywhere... on memos, on billboards advertising capsicum's... capsicum's what!?? It's a bit like "its" and "it's"... no one seems to realise the simple "it is" test for a contraction will prevent that shockingly common error.

thanks for the info on the power loader. Nah, have D|S 1 through 3, haven't really used any of them. Still, I probably have a half-dozen gigs of files I don't need or can't use anyway...;)

actually, when i worked with editors, i asked them about something very similar. in fact, they're probably correct. you should use the apostrophe sparingly, but for plurals when it would be too awkward or confusing not to. since "Readmes" doesn't look plural at all, and "me" doesn't take the plural, the apostrophe not only sounds appropriate, it looks familiar enough to be the actual case i asked about.

while i snapped up most of those figures free when they came out, i still didn't have all those reduced res. yay!

TZORG ( ) posted Wed, 20 January 2010 at 4:03 PM

I would think the plural of "readme" should be "readus."

Thanks for the heads up, Wolf.

Cobaltdream - I strongly agree with you and - I don't have it to hand here - I believe Fowler's English Usage will back me up. The "Greengrocer's Apostrophe" is the bane of the English language.

TZORG - nope, it would be "Readmes", since the rules of plurals generally add an "s" to the end of nouns.

That may be so but in names - which is what "readme" is - the name remains intact.

Yes, I do disagree with cobalt; my typing and concentration are suffering somewhat, due to illness.

Pretty sure I have the bone scaling business figured out - the channels all have to exist in the donor rig. I am sure the old version of the "V4 developer kit" that I have been using does not include support for G4/SheFreak 4, hopefully the version I just now downloaded does. If not then I guess I'll have to hack my own blank CR2 together - not a fun project at all since there are huge heaps of crap in the base V4 CR2 that should not go into a conformer (all the LinkParms entries, the deformers, all kinds of crap).
...
Gosh, guess what. No support channels for Girl 4/SheFreak 4 in the freshly downloaded "developer kit". It's like they don't want people to support this stuff.

... and no, David Eaton's version of the blank CR2 doesn't have these channels either (the V4 or M4 versions).

pjz99 ( ) posted Wed, 20 January 2010 at 11:02 PM

I think I understand why DAZ never updated the donor rig - they couldn't get conformers to work with bone scaling in all places, particularly the fingers. At zero pose it looks OK, but when the fingers (oddly, not the thumb, just the fingers) are bent, the endpoints obviously don't line up any more. This is with HandsScale dialed to 1 for the V4 character and the conformer both. It works in some other places, ChestSize appears to be OK for example.

Pretty sure I can't fix this either, oh well ^^ At least I can do the morph support.

pjz99 ( ) posted Thu, 21 January 2010 at 5:29 AM

For any who were curious and didn't already know (this is old news to people who were already owners of Freak 4, Girl 4 etc) the bone scaling features simply do not work correctly in Poser, period.

Hiyas Ghost!!! poser 6 here
Got it sorted though
I was using "betterzip" to extract the installers which was somehow corrupting them
after using regular "stuffit" on them they worked fine.
