Quote - Here's the second UV. As you can see, it's been messed up since Launch and DAZ has done nothing to fix this.
One great thing about DAZ Studio 4 is that it allows for different UV sets that can be switched out at will.
Its not a terribly difficult thing to create your own UV map in a program like ZBRUSH or Blacksmith3D.
The basic suit was "thrown in" as a bonus freebie because DAZ had it and even as it is it is better than not having it.
It was hoped that some enterprising PA or third party would "fix" it... but that hasnt really happened.
I know this isnt the answer you wanted... but I dont work at DAZ anymore and I have no idea if or when it would even be considered for fixing. I suppose if enough people asked they might take a go at it.
One thing I could recommend is that if anyone reading this knows of someone with the skill to take it on or has those skills themselves, this is a great opportunity to make some extra money by selling it to DAZ... just an idea.
-EDIT-
Just to clarify... its not hard to make a custom UV for your own custom 3D paint setup... it IS a bit more difficult to create a UV that will allow for creation of seamless texturing in photoshop.
