  Oh dear, and that tweak could also expose all other stuff to going wonky in Poser.  Tsk tsk tsk.

 

So DAZ shouldn't design a more advanced figure/system? They should just cludge together a few tweaks on to V4 call it V5 and be done with it in fear of things going wonky in Poser?

How many times over the years have the myriad of companies that owned Poser changed the program regardless of it's effect on DAZ'S business?

I've been away from the community for some time and it's quite evident coming back that DAZ Studio and Poser have developed in different directions.

When DS was first introduced it was a security blanket for everyone that thought Poser might fold. Now it's a serious ap in it's own right. It's not surprising that as the two aps develop independently more and more product won't cross over.....

 

It seems Smith has a choice coming, adapt P8 etc. to accept the new DAZ model or develop figures that make everyone jump ship from the DAZ line.......something that hasn't happened since the introduction of V1.
