well, sadly i rather found disadvantages.
the importer thingie worked quite well, also the figure seems to morph fine (i only have the starter pack) but after some playing things came to an aprupt halt for me.
No one noticed the -very- conservative limits they have put on every single axis?
try to bend the arms behind the back - you can't. raise the knees, it stops at a very low angle.
try a more 'extreme' Spiderman-Pose.....
sure, you can tick those limits off, but this can become a very tedious work after a while and shouldn't be nescessary in the first place.
it's a first disadvantage.
second drawback:
Poser doesn't export the Genesis figure correct. neither to Vue nor as OBJ you seem to get a sub-devided mesh (see butt in image above), so external rendering is a no-go, what breaks my workflow.
third point, already mentioned, without spending a lot of money you can't do anything with the figure, what may be nice for DAZ, but i'm not willing to do.
my impression is - if you'd like to work with Genesis - do it in DAZ Studio, that'll probably save you some trouble.
edit: oh - and don't click on "Figure - Use limits" - or pooooff - genesis dissapears like a jinny :)
