Quote - Genesis, Genesis 2, and Autofit seem to be working more often than not for me (like 95+% of the time). Sure, there are some things that don't work in Carrara, like geografting (where the UV's don't translate properly), the HD sets, and the occasional bit of content (the only problem I've had so far is textures not loading properly, but I've seen posts where people have had much worse problems with things I don't have). I do have Poke Away and Poke Away 2 (Poke Away 2 has a LOT more options than the first one for Genesis) which makes not having the advanced funtionality for Autofit in DS pretty much a non-issue. You need to keep in mind that no autofit type technology that has been developed to date is 100% perfect (Wardrobe Wizard, Morphing Clothes, etc.), so expecting everything to work flawlessly would be rather unrealistic. Do Genesis and Genesis 2 work flawlessly in C8.5? No. But they do work, and in my experience it has been most of the time, YMMV. Granted, I'm not a "power" user like some here, but I have used C8.5 for beta testing the Octane plugin almost daily for the past 8 month's, and haven't had many problems with C8.5 or Genesis. Here are a few examples of Genesis & Genesis 2 rendered in C8.5
As for the "hundred other problems", I certainly haven't experienced even close to that number.

I probably shouldn't have said a hundred. I didn't think anyone would take that quite so literally.
Seems if Genesis integration was the main reason for 8.5, if it doesn't work right, then that is a MAJOR problem.
I posted to that thread over at Daz too. The thread might not have had hundreds of problems, it seems the ones that exist are serious enough to be alarming, to say the least.
Disclaimer: I want Genesis to work more than almost anyone. I LOVE the way Olympia 6 looks, as well as Lilith 6. A lot of new content over at Daz is now in DUF only format and I have been hearing about problems with DUF (It's mentioned over in the thread)
Well, for now C7Pro is stable enough and does what I need. I'm not in the best position to invest a lot into Gen6 right now.
