Quote - The situation for Poser users right now is simply like this:

 

  1. Ignore Genesis and make do with an inferior mesh.

 

  1. Switch over to Studio 4.

 

  1. Lobby for SmithMicro to build the necessary plugins so that Genesis can be run in Poser 9/PP 2012 natively with all the features it has in Studio 4.

 

You have neglected possibility 4:

Weight map your most extreme figures and,  say,  D3 (PhilC wrote a script). Load your  figures as FBMs of D3.  Use CC's Poser Morph Loader to animate the joint centers for those FBMs.  You now have a Gen 3 analogue of Genesis; call her "Jenni-3".

Of course it would be much more work than that in practice because virtually all of the JCMs would need to be eliminated and the weightmapping tweaked to compensate. 

Such a figure would be much more detailed than Genesis.  It would need to be encoded against D3 for distribution...

EDIT from a practical consideration, M3 would probably be a better base as it is free...

This was the last time we all had true freedom of choice.

Actually, they were both Zygote figures... :biggrin:
