Quote - I don't know if vendors will provide refits for their stuff, but they may be willing to make new stuff for a different figure. Vendors currently make clothes for V4 because that's what sells. Buyers buy for V4 because that's what's available. (kind of a vicious circle) But just as there are buyers who would rather work with other figures, I'm sure there are vendors who would too, but currently don't because of the potential ding in sales. But that now could change. Vendors might say I'd rather work with Anastatia and do so and not have it hurt their sales much because now people who use Vicky can still get the stuff and people who don't can get it. This won't happen over night. First, there are still too many who don't have the fitting room yet. Second, there are stubborn vendors who wouldn't change from Vicky if they were paid to. (not that any vendor reading this falls under that catagory) But perhaps as new vendors and new buyers come along, people who start with the fitting room and so don't know the constraints of the older poser versions may change things.
I haven't tried the fitting room. Some say it's really easy to use and some say it's going to take them a while to get a handle on it. It would seem that the average vendor is probably a bit more adept at working with Poser and related utilities. If they could put the fitting room into their workflow where it's not very time consuming to refit a new item they could add a lot of value to their items and positively affect their bottom line.
Right now I see clothing built to fit V4, G4, and A4, or hair with fits for numerous figures. Those items are more appealing to me as a consumer. The vendor that puts out clothing items that fit V4, Anastasia, and Miki 4, for instance, would be selling a mighty valuable product. All those "pose, clothe and render" folks who don't have PP 2014 or can't be bothered to learn the fitting room would probably thank such a vendor from the bottom of their wallets.
