Ok, catching up on the list of questions Richard collected for me, I think this should catch us up on most things.
I'm behind a few pages, but if there are questions you feel have been missed, please repost them or email me to remind me, ok?
thanks,
Q: Ethnic morphs and skins
A: They are planned as add-on products for Dawn, not for initial release but are at the top of our list
Q: What is the current possible timeframe to release?
A: We will announce Dawn’s release date as soon as we have a final release candidate accepted so that we can commit to the date we post. But we feel we are very close to making that announcement
Q: Information about breast movement
A: Dawn has a set of basic breast sizes included in her base file. There a handful of other breast morphs that will be part of her add-on morph pack (to be included in her starter pack). Other breast morphs will likely be added in subsequent body morphs packs that we’ll be working on.
Q: Is Dawn compatible with InterPoser Pro?
A: We do not have a copy of InterPoser Pro yet, nor have we had any testing done in InterPoser Pro yet.
Q: Creature morphs and other morph packs?
A: Yes, we will be creating a very large range of full and partial body morphs as we consider these vital to the versatility and long-term success of a figure.
Q: Faceroom compatibility?
A: We have been in touch with Smith Micro regarding our figure, but have nothing to announce around this yet, tho we would love for this to happen.
Q: Will V4 textures work with Dawn?
A: Steve Corder has been experimenting to see if his Texture Convertor can be updated to allow this to happen. Nothing final on this yet.
Q: Will there be normal, everyday poses for Dawn?
A: Yes, we plan on there being a variety of poses, and surely others in the community will provide many more options. The base Dawn includes 10 poses, and the starter pack another 15.
Q: Will there be any painted on underwear?
A: NO!
Q: Carrara compatability?
A: We have a couple of community testers who are looking at Dawn to help us understand any issues around Carrara there may be. We would love for her to work well in Carrara also.
Q: Reduced resolution version for animation?
A: We do not have a reduced resolution version ready for release, but it is on our list to do.
Q: What are we allowed to use the Skin Map / Texture Resource Kit for?
A: This will have the normal licensing around it as other merchant resource kits do. If there are more questions around this, please post them again with specifics for us to address.
Q: Could we please have Gecko Toes in addition to Gecko fingers?
A: Sorry, Satira… this did not make the final cut for Dawn’s base offering. Perhaps later on? ;)
Q: Question about a possible skullcap for Dawn
A: We’ve gone back and forth on the need for a skullcap, but if there is lots of demand for one, we would be happy to create something quickly after her initial release. If this is important to you as a hair creator, please let us know.
Q: One request for the Ethnic morphs, could the please be named in the same way the V3 ones were? IE African Chinese etc
A: Yes, we will keep our morph naming as simple yet descriptive as possible.
Q: Will the bodysuit have a hood, booties and gloves either as part of or offered as a addon pack?
A: Bodysuit available upon release is a simple bodysuit with no gloves, socks, or hood.
