Yeah.  I hate those hard limits.  There are times when 1.000 or -1.000 just doesn't do it, and you need a value more or less.  

I also hate having the scale parameters hidden.  First thing I always have to do is to unhide them.  

 

I'm becoming more and more a sad puppy Hivewire didn't need any more Dawn testers :(  Stiff upper lip and all that, but ... it sure is trembling with each teaser we get.

 

What happens when Dawn cups her right shoulder with her left hand.  We all know what happens if V4 tries that.  

Genesis limits prevent her from doing so.  She can touch her right shoulder with the tips of her left fingers in DS.  She can't do any better in Poser, and her elbow joint crumples when attempting to do so.

 

Can Dawn pledge allegience?

Genesis can, but her shoulder crumples in DS and both shoulder and elbow crumple in Poser.  

Roxie is able to pledge allegience better than either Genesis and V4. My Roxie Donor (V4 scaled and posed to match Roxie, all zones merged to weight map) looks better in the pose than Roxie (Roxie's elbow bulges oddly).

 

Roxie is also able to stand with her arms straight down at her sides (the palm of her hand rests on the side of her thigh).  Roxie donor and V4 WM can too, V4's shoulder needs corrected, and Genesis's shoulder crumbles dreadfully.  

 

How about that pose so common in period pieces where a man rests the back of his left hand on the small of his back.  I've tried and tried to replicate that with M4 and the results are really disappointing.

Quote - Okay, I absolutely LOVE what I'm seeing here. And honestly, I can't wait to get ahold of her and start doing some  serious figure support here. (provided there are morphs released for her...)

I like her shape. I love the fact that shes not a six foot, too-skinny, tall-torso'd, runway model or barbie doll. I like the fact that she has a little meat on her bones, and her overall shape is excellent. I LOVE the flexibility on her hands! I can't wait for the release. I want to play with her!!

I only have ONE request...

If it is at ALL possible.. can we AVOID setting hard limits?

I frequently spin dials well above and below 1.000 and -1.000, and something Daz started doing with the Gen4's that infuriates me is making those dials 'locked' at certain values. It makes character creation insanely difficult - especially if they "hard" lock those values such that even  editing the parameter dial value won't allow you to spin them past those points.
