Quote - I'd not have known you couldn't rig in DS4 if I wasn't going thru the threads, which I rarely have time to do... I really need to catch up on the news around here =/

You can't rig in any DS version UNLESS you buy the rigging tools. For DS4 that means the CCT (Content Creation Tools). Which are a more advanced and only version of rigging tools that they will have. No basic and pro versions as the last time.

But clothing creation will be easier with the genesis figure. The rigging is easer and it will fit any/most shapes without having to do all that extra work as in Poser rigged figures. Lets not forget the options with a plugin to use your other figures clothes with genesis.

As a long time Poser user. Every version since 4. I would love to see Genesis used in Poser. But I'm not going to cry about it if it does not happen. I can just port it over to Poser. No different than what many of us do to get figures to other software. Even a 3rd party bridge might be a good solution.

I do see the advantages of Genesis over other figures. I don't believe that SM can make a really good figure. There has not been a better native figure in Poser since as long as I have been around. Even the one they have redone 3 or 4 times is till a poor excuse of a figure.

So we have been given SM's version of a DAZ soon on info about the next version. Fine. But I'm using Genesis now. The longer I have to wait for any info on Poser. The more money DAZ will be getting out of me for Genesis. Mind you. That's not much right now. Even less on Poser rigged figures. And that has no baring on me buying the next version of Poser. I will because I'm a Poser user.
