It is a shame, I really liked the idea of Dawn from the start and I really did want to use her but I don't see I should have to pay for something I will not use just to support a figure.  For some the mprphs will no doubt be value for money and they will get a lot of pleasure from using her, I am happy for them and wish them lots of happy rendering.  For me however Dawn has been a dissappointment so far and, as I do not have the skills, will continue to be so until there are some major improvements.

Just a personal view, not trying to upset anyone or insist my way is best.  The original title asked for Dawn's impact and more than one response said she needed the morphs.  Now they are available the impact for me is nil.

I have also been anxiously awaiting these morphs. I have supported Dawn by purchasing quite a bit of content from creators. I have to say that I share your disappointment somewhat. The face morphs do not do nearly what I had hoped. If you look at the list of v4 morphs++ there are dozens more morphs that control the face. It was my hope that these morphs would free character creators like me who can do textures, but just do not have the knowhow or the money or the technical capabilty to morph in programs like Zbrush, but this morph pack does not have the versatiliy that I had hoped for. It is not the price that is the problem as with my points discount I only paid 23 for them, but I would gladly have paid 50 or even 100 for an extensive pack like morphs++. There were actually enough body morphs to satisfy me, but the face for me,  particularly the eyes and face shape including the ability to shorten that jaw and chin some are necessary to make the kinds of faces that I enjoy making. I still like Dawn and she does have a place in my runtime, but sadly will not unseat V4 at this time because her face is not versatile enough.
