> Quote - Well, optional is great. But why on earth would I want to prevent myself from using certain items with certain figures? Someone who buys erotic clothing and props with the intention of using them with child figures is not going to turn on the *option* at all, are they? So what's the point?

With something like that, I tend to assume the feature represents an undeclared agenda of the company, masquerading as a new, useful tool for the end user.  All that new security hassleware-garbage in Windows?  It's about MS making it harder for copies to be bootlegged overseas, and damn the domestic home user. Or so this paranoid poster believes.  :laugh:

In this case, I'd suspect that Daz just wanted to make a statement.  "We disapprove of this sort of thing and hope you do, too!"  But say Poser is beaten by Daz.  Daz wins, no more Poser, no more competition.  Daz no longer has to worry about what the user thinks.  If they actually wanted to block content in the past but restrained themselves, they no longer need to.  They have a captive market.  If software kept me awake at night, this is the kind of thing I'd think about.  :lol:

I'm giving RobynsVeil Win Points for "Ridiculopathies".  :thumbupboth:

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.
