So when an application developer releases buggy software, then doesn't fix it, I'm supposed to be happy?
I wasn't agreeing with you ether just pointing out I am in the same boat. You aren't listening to what I have to say ether. "im just realising that you only take on board one opinion and its your own". And you are different how?
DAZ releasing buggy software then not fixing it isn't an opinion, it's a fact. I just don't get why you don't seem to think DAZ should be held responcable for fixing the bugs in the software it releases.
Sorry but dealling with DAZ for ten years has given me this attitude, a few lines from you isn't going to change it. I'm just trying to point out to you DAZ isn't all rainbows and my little ponies. Here is a good example. At one time DAZ was selling a pluggin for studio for the mac OS that didn't work. They continued to sell this product for 8 months knowing it didn't work. That is the DAZ I know. Of coarse they cheerfully refunded your money when you asked, and left the product up in the shop for sale.{people got banned from the DAZ forum for pointing this out}.
Oh I want solutions, but I am not buying a workaround for a bug that needs to be fixed. I had a solution in the C8.5 beta then DAZ broke it in the release. Much like autofit in the carrara beta worked as well as if not better then in Studio, DAZ borked it in the release. If autofit worked in carrara I wouldn't be using it in Studio. Now if a PA can come up with a solution to the isseus why can't DAZ? Simple, they make a profit off selling the work around so are not motivated to fix it.
And the reason I don't do the smooth and push in Studio is because it doesn't transcribe to carrara.
Trolling, no. I just love a conversational debate, or argument. That is as long as the other person doesn't get personal; too late, can hold up their end of the argument, and like markht did, offer up some hard facts to refute my statements. So far all you have offered up is the same as I, opinions.
Now it is not an opinion that modeling in the assembly room is broken in the release and worked in the beta or that autofit got borked in the release version but worked fine in the beta version of C8.5.
I bought C8.5 a couple of months ago. I have been working trial and error since to get things wroking well enough to use; and that is after having used the beta for 2 years. I had to find solutions to several niggally little bugs when importing studio content/scenes.
What I am saying is if DAZ hadn't borked the release version of carrara 8.5 I wouldn't be forced to use Studio so much. I used Studio for the optitex dynaimc clothing; fixing that so I could continue to run the calculations in Studio to stage in carrara is one of the very few kudos I can give DAZ. I also used the content tools in studio. That was it, I had no other use for it. Now if we had gotten the promised optitex plugin for carrara, and DAZ saw fit to put the content tools in carrara, and autofit worked I'd have no use for Studio at all.
Meaning if DAZ fixed bugs, followed through on promises, and put content tools in carrara I wouldn't be here now. I could give you a history lesson in just what all DAZ has done to us carraraests, but some how I doubt you'd be interested. So I will put it simply, you got the app for free then bought the content to use in it. I paid for Carrara, I bought content for it, and I still have to use the free app to use the content I bought for carrara in carrara, and DAZ doesn't seem obliged to fix it.
Now DAZ still sells G1, morphs, skins, clothes, and so on. So it is still pertenent that autofit gets fixed to work better with Genasis. More over where is the loose shirt and long dress options we were promised years ago? Right, yet another broken promise from DAZ.
Do you think you can understand my animosity now?
