DAZ has updated it's comments on Victoria 5 in the Commons to include the following:

 

**Q. Will Victoria 5 work in Poser? **

A. Since Victoria 5 is built upon the Genesis platform, she can only work in programs that supply some level of support for this new platform. Poser 9 and Poser Pro 2012 currently offer limited functionality. DAZ 3D has put (and continues to put) significant effort into working with Smith Micro to build support for our technology. We hope that Smith Micro will continue to expand their support so that the full capabilities of our new Genesis figures can be experienced within their programs as well. How valuable this limited functionality is depends on the workflow of each individual user. 

**What you can do with Victoria 5 in Poser 9/Poser Pro 2012: **

• Load the same Victoria 5 shapes 

• Bend, scale, pose 

• Use morphs that came across as part of the CR2 export 

• Render 

What you can NOT do with Victoria 5 in Poser 9/Poser Pro 2012: 

• Benefit from SubD being applied after the figure is posed, for dynamic smoothing of the model (Poser has its own approach to smoothing a mesh at render time, but it is not the same) 

• Dynamically add morphs to the figure after the figure ships as a product, without an interim step. 

• Automatic Morph generation, the ability to automatically generate morphs on fitted clothing when a morph on the underlying figure is dialed up 

• Automatically swap out UV's and materials via a preset file 

• Use "Smart Content" (meta-data) that is used to simplify the content selection and usage experience for the user. 

** Published Artists should NOT use the exported CR2 version of the Genesis figure for creating add-ons. *
