Wolf, industry standards are more than two words in any other world.  They convey a compatibility, which so far, the words "weight mapping" are just that, two words and convey no standard. 

Now it's in the lower end stuff, with Poser and Antonia proving it can work extremely well, a different method in DS4, which so far works with one figure. 

In the years I was working, I found two things to be truth.  If a tool is too expensive, it will be a failure in the market.  The second, if a tool is cumbersome, it will not be used.  It's as simple as that. 

There will be those that go with the genesis, more power to them.  There will be others that will go with other figures, more power to them too.  Genesis can do a lot of things, I'm finding that out, but also finding a lot that it can't do well.  I'm also aware that with me putting no money out for plugins for DS that I'm kinda hamstrung, but shortcomings are evident, the workarounds aren't so evident.  They may be there, to those that are in the know and comfortable with DS.  To me, I'm not in the know, and DS is, to me, clumsy and confusing.  One shortcoming, with any program, is to get a newborn infant, I have to use the P4 infant.
