Quote - Who is the BBaggins of the DS4 community?  Who has the capabilities of making a completelly new figure that takes full advantage of the DS4 capabilities.

As for the first part, you may want to look a bit closer at the DAZ forums... there's hobbyist folks in there who are working up things like realtime collision detection, for heaven's sakes. As for the second? The figures are already there. 

I did. I asked. You see, I bought DS3Adv with the express purpose of developing shaders in Shader Mixer as counterparts to my shaders in Poser. After much hemming and hawing, I was finally told by those who modded the forums: "regretably, there is none."

People there dabble and do interesting things with the tools at hand, but no one could explain brick behaviour, nor was there any comprehensive documentation on brick/shader behaviour either.
