i'd say: leave DAZ stuff to DAZ, get rid of old habits, enjoy some new ones.
Yes that is the best approach. It's been my intention all along to keep everything 100% original and fresh, so the UV mapping would be a step backward.
And if you think about it, whether it's legal to share maps or not, they do have a right to not want other people piggy-backing off of their work or derivatives of it, on any level, so I really don't blame them. From an ethical standpoint it is fair.
Ultimately the users decide these things. It's up to them whether Lucas or any other non-daz model is successful. The only way to do that is for more people to support independent artists.
Thanks for the compliments on the modeling.
