"Sorry, Joe, that's just not true.  It's never been true, and I don't believe I've ever seen anyone claim it is."

 

Dawn was rigged in Studio.

Then the rig was exported to Poser via Studio's built in "cr2-exporter". (Which can only export a pretty basic rig last time I checked)

That's why the rig has to be so simplified and that's why she needs all those extra body-groups to somewhat compensate. (Two necks like Vicky-2 and multiple abdomen like Apollo)

That's the whole "secret" of Dawn's "Bridging the Poser/Studio rift".

Not some clever "advanced" rigging, but quite the contrary.

 

That's at least what I read over at the Hivewire forums following merchants' conversations and reading the Hivewire development thread here. And it matches with the type of rigging I encountered when trying to improve her for Poser.

Sorry, I won't hunt for the exact locations to "proof" my statement. It's not that important to me.

But if you can give me technical details that refute my statement, I'm all ears.
