Quote - FWIW, there is no "buying another app" involved, since DAZ says the exporter will be available for the free version. It's not really clear to me why DAZ couldn't just provide a CR2 of base Genesis, V5 etc; I assume there's a technical reason that can't be done.

But in the end, it would provide no more functionality than other weight mapped figures in Poser, except it would have a lower rez mesh. (I do wish Poser would deploy Catmull-Clark.) I guess that will be enough for some people.

 

It's very clear why they don't do it, nothing technical at all. If you can export through DS to Poser, then they can place it in the market as a stand-alone figure as well. The reason they don't do it is very obvious, they want you to use DS and hope you will get used to it.

Hey, you can use our figure in Poser, but you have to use and learn DS to get it there, let's be honest..... that is the most customer unfriendly thing there is and quite absurd if you think abiut it. The only reason for this is DAZ's hope to win people over to DS. If you're already doing half of the work in DS, why not go all the way?

 

So, nothing technical at all, pure marketing.

Artwork and 3DToons items, create the perfect place for you toon and other figures!
