I am a team member-but only speak for myself- "The opinion I state is solely my opinion and not that of PoserPlace, or the UN General Assembly"
That said-I suspect it has to do with Daz wanting people to use Genesis rather than V4. Marketing is the word. I see many comments by Daz users saying- V4 is PAST-why use it when we have Genesis?
The more natural bending was what got ME interested in Genesis. DAZ also decided not to offer a higher poly Genesis for Poser users. Since the free software month-I have DS4Pro. I find that I can get more realism out of Poser2012-and I also find it far more flexible.
OT:
Right now I see an add banner for Reality 2 for DS, a render of Danae's Dublin character is the pic used. It looks remarkably like what I just rendered-in Poser. I've yet to see DS offer that sort of realism
Quote - ... one thing i don't see mentioned in this thread that you may want to consider.... DAZ owns the V4 mesh and imposed clear limitations on what Poser Place could do with that mesh, therefore limiting what could be achieved .... i for one do not understand these limitations as there are hundreds even thousands of figures that have been released , both free and commercially, that have altered these meshes almost beyond recognition... every morph alters the mesh.... why was this project treated differently?
i totally understand Phantom3d not wanting to risk legal action thereby risking the site, i just don't understand why this is any different than other instances, are we all now forbidden from creating alterations that may improve the figure? are those who altered it before at risk of legal action?i wish someone would clarify this...
i joined Poser Place as a member just as i am a member here i do not represent Poser Place, just as i do not represent Renderosity, these views/concerns are my own. I just want to insure i don't get my own ass in a wringer trying to help solve some of these issues...
