Don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but BVHStudios has a new free figure available, "Athena 2.0" She looks pretty good and I'm downloading her now.

I'm not going to post a link because even though the figure is free, it is a commercial site and does have some "mature" content. I'm sure those of you who really want to take a look will be able to find your way there.

I'd rather stay in my lane than lay in my stain!

Dloaded her yesterday ...hopefully somone can do a hi res. photoreal texture for her.  Roughly hand painted doesn't do it for me....havn't played with her yet to comment to much, Ive been real busy tinkering with VSS and Antonia.

hborre ( ) posted Wed, 03 February 2010 at 1:10 PM

I have her but haven't installed yet.  I will see how she responds to VSS.

Thanks for the heads-up. Here it is... whole package 2MB only.

*"With her entire mesh and Cr2 file built from scratch, and at just 2.3MB in size, she is even lighter than the standard Poser 4 female (posette) with a cr2 file weighing only 2.0 MB in size. Athena 2 will load into your scene and render faster than any standard commercial figure currently sold anywhere.

Athena 2.0 is designed mainly as a background figure for populating your scenes with up to 6-10 extra background characters without stressing your computer's memory and processor to breaking point."**

BTW the hip looks funny because this is a standard V4 pose applied.

she is designed as a background figure with low memory usage, she has less polys then P4W.

I guess she is the female counter-part to Vincent Parker?

Jules, you think you'll make any morphs for her? If she is for background she'll need some different body types. I'll probably get around to it eventually but no time real soon on account of RL.


LaurieA ( ) posted Wed, 03 February 2010 at 2:09 PM · edited Wed, 03 February 2010 at 2:10 PM

She needs some clothes...lol.

In the hopes that there will be a XDresser plugin, I'll try my luck at fitting some of Vicky's or others clothes to her (if I ever find the time). I don't really need the "morphing genitals" feature ;o).

Attached Link: Free "Vamp" outfit for Athena 2.0

BVHStudios has put up one freebie outfit in today's Renderosity freestuff section. That's how I found out about her.

I'd rather stay in my lane than lay in my stain!

LaurieA ( ) posted Wed, 03 February 2010 at 2:35 PM

Thanks!

I was actually thinking something more, um, "practical" but that'll do for now ;o)...lol.

wespose ( ) posted Wed, 03 February 2010 at 2:45 PM

"practical" / "I don't really need the "morphing genitals" feature "

BVH is an erotic fetish clothes designer after all......I cant stand when Hi res "life like" characters dont come with morphing gens. I see it as a thumbs up for her.

LaurieA ( ) posted Wed, 03 February 2010 at 2:52 PM

I didn't say it was a bad feature, just said I don't need it ;o). I actually have bought V3 and 4 clothes from this merchant. I just don't need what I don't need. I assumed she had no clothes ;o). If you've looked thru my gallery ever you'll notice I don't really do nudes much. Not a prude, just personal preference :o).

 It will be great to have multiple background characters without exponential growth in render time..

Not too bad looking figure,  working for Me..

Not all of the BVH stuff is fetish related. He also did the wonderful SWAT outfit,too. Unless someone out there has a fetish about that,too. :laugh: people have fetishes about some weird stuff.

Great figure for free ... but it screams so much for an advanced version. This model is to good to rust somewhere in the background.This model is intended to be  a background model but has one the best  detailed genitalias I have ever seen on a Poser figure .To pity.She has enough Polys in her Face to make her a beauty and to give her convincing Face morphs.Her Bodypolys are not that low I think.Give her an UV map to take Victoria texures and add some joint deformer helper mags(whatever this is called) and she is a first class figure like V4 or G2.My conclusion though :well done I like her.

LaurieA ( ) posted Thu, 04 February 2010 at 2:24 AM

Has anyone tried to scale her? She still suffers from the "waist too long, legs too long" thing ;o). Like most Poser figures...lol. Easily fixed tho if she scales nicely.

Laurie, Stephanie 4 is rumored to be on the way... DAZ soon.  ;)

Someone saw a tab on a demo video for the new Ethnic face morphs and the DAZ boss stated in another thread that she would be released this year. I always thought Stephanie 3 had more realistic legs.

Athena looks good, though! Wonder how well she poses/animates. I'm guessing well since the model is so light.

Yes It was me .Watch the promo vid and take care on the dials you can see in the DS UI.You can see a Stephanie 4 dial.

I saw a post at Posette Forever that said she could wear V4 clothes - "with minor adjustments." With a couple of minutes of completely clueless dial twiddling I was able to cover her benefits, at least from the front. Those with more patience/skill for dials and magnets may be able to get decent results.

She is a nice figure and I agree that she  has the potential to serve as more than a scene filler. For that matter, I'm not sure why she would have such bodacious lady bits for background roles, unless it was the background of an orgy. If she gets as much support as Maya Doll did, she can be a star.

LaurieA:

It looks like BVH is now at RDNA.  And he has upgraded Athena to 3.0:

""
Hey everyone

Been here the past few days and loving it here. Thought I'd stop by and say hi to everyone

Hoping to broker my products here soon plus find a place for my new girl Athena 3.0 (piccy below)

I've been creating Poser content for over 10 years now. Starting at Renderosity, then my own website, hoping to find a new home at RDNA atm

I've been working on Athena 3.0 since last December btw , modelled totally from scratch (24,000 polys), and she's gonna be my new sexy outfit model

Anyways, planning to have my first Athena 3.0 products up here in the coming days and hoping to make lots of new friends here too!

The post I saw said that he was speaking to the RDNA admins about hosting it there, so your inability to locate it isn't surprising.
