I have it, but unfortunately it has crashed every single time I've tried to use it.  :(  Face Shop 4 has usually been stable for me, but I've never been able to get results out of it that were useful.  Interesting, sometimes.  Not really useful.

But I've read that it can be quite powerful, if you can develop just the right level of expertise with the interface and/or process.  I'm afraid I don't have enough tolerance for frustration and disappointment to get there.

And yet I'll probably still end up shelling out for FS 6, if and when it comes along.  Ever hopeful.  :lol:

The program makes me think of that Hitchhiker's Guide quote: "Looks like a fish, moves like a fish, steers like a cow."  :lol:  So much potential.  Apparently robust and effective algorithms in use.  And an interface that handles as awkwardly as the Poser Hair Room tools, for me, at least.  Sigh.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
