Quote - Why is it that there are so many products for V4/M4 that only work in Poser and not DAZ Studio?  This has got to stop.  Seriously.  Showing us a great product for the models we use in our program and then telling us that the product won't work with our program is just plain mean.  What did DAZ Studio users ever to do you vendors, to piss you off and make you not want to support them?  Did it honestly never occur to you that you could be making a lot more money by selling to users of both programs?

 

Depends upon the product you are refering to.  Remember a few things.  Poser has been around a lot longer than DS.  DS could be classed as a knock off of Poser. 

Unless I miss my guess, the product you're complaining about is most likely a dynamic cloth product.  To enlighten you, Poser had dynamic cloth back when DS was just an idea.  DAZ made the choice to go with the Optitex system and not the soft body physics engine that Poser uses.  If you're going to rant at anyone rant at DAZ. 

If the product is a python script, again blame DAZ not the vendors.  DAZ considered going with Python support but then dropped it in favor of QT scripting.  Again, Poser had python scripting before DS even existed.

If the product is a shader or material, again blame DAZ.  Shaders and material room nodes are directly tied to whatever renderer the app uses.  DAZ chose 3Delight.  Poser had Firefly long before DS existed.

Sense a pattern here?

No, vendors do not have to stop or change what they are doing because you don't like it.  If that were the case then every Poser user would have the right to go to DAZ and flame them for Genesis which only works in DS4.

No one is being "mean".  Vendors are doing what they do.  They make products and sell them.  They have no control over what DAZ did or did not decide to include in DS.
