Quote - Well, I think the benefit of a neuter base is pretty prevalent - all you need to do is look at the outcry for more male content. Yes, its no secret.... the females are heavily favored in the community. Having a base that can morph anything with it across the board is pretty smart. Even if it seems awkward in some cases.
Granted... not everything will work across the board. Some things are definitively female and can't go masculine... or at least not without some giggling ensuing lol But the fact that your wardrobe effectively doubles when you buy an outfit that serves as a pretty neutral base - whether youre using a troll, Anubis, etc, is pretty darn cool.
And this was what the community screamed for - they wanted their money to go further, and DAZ listened. Not only in that aspect, but also making Generation 4 content work with Genesis using Auto-Fit.
Dislciamer: I am answering this as person in the community, not as a representative of DAZ. My opinions are merely my own and not intended to insult or inflame anyone. My name is IgnisSerpentus (which I know is difficult to spell correctly) and Im a girl, not a dood. And yes, I like to play with snakes.....
Having a neuter base will not produce more male clothing I think - maybe even less. I do not believe any of the majority of female clothing released by DAZ or Rendo or wherever to be ever worn by a male. So in all likelyhood this will not change
Having V4 clothing worn by the new figure is very good if all movement morphs remain available and no stretching or other unwanted deforming takes place. That has been the major problem with all conversion cloth utilities and I don't think autofit is much better in that respect
