Quote - I am kind of curious why SM implemented weight mapping on Poser.... I mean for what?

My guess would be that with figures converted over to weightmapping, there would no longer be any issues with scaling figures up or down and loosing any quality due to the old joint centers issue. I could be wrong, but I would think not having joint centers to contend with that Genesis type scaling would no longer break figures if they were converted to the weightmap system. I haven't messed with the weightmapping yet though so that's just my guess based on what people have said about joint centers not moving properly with scaling in Poser.
