Quote - ksears, Genesis isn't really a final solution for Poser. It's a lot of work to get clothes to fit (if they don't explode), and certain parts of the anatomy (the calf, for instance) appear too low poly for serious anatomical renders. Nice for the occasional render, particularly if you need monsters and half humans/anthros. But I would not organize my runtime around it.
Using DS isn't a solution, either, as its render engine cannot perform up to standards. Others have other reasons for not using it. We've heard them all before. As the thread is in the Poser forum, I think we can agree that those of us posting in this thread who want male content, want it for Poser.
It's not a DS vs Poser issue. It's an "until SM has a Genesis" for Poser, males aren't going to get support issue. Until Genesis, males were suffering the same fate in DAZland. And while things aren't equal, they are getting much better over there.
Over here it is still WAY too much work for the vendor, and it's getting worse not better. Before too much longer the Poserverse is going to see even more splits as vendors decide which, if any, newPoser-WM characters they are going to provide morphs for -- even on the female side. Each of the different morphs and body shapes is a lot of work, and in many cases the morphs for the different figures won't work together. Then you have to take the different WM into account, which compounds the issue.
