Quote - I am well aware that DSON products do not work well in DAZ, and I am not surprised that it's even worse with Gen6-- I can't imagine the HD products/options working in Poser, in particular.

 

However, what I said is still true-- V4 is going by the wayside, little by little. 

 

Certainly the majority of new releases on the page today are overwhelmingly V4.
I seem to have overestimated the conversion, based partly on the freebies trend (very little free stuff for V4 anymore-- vast majority is for G2F and both versions of Dawn)

I did look at some of the vendor patterns, however.

 

Vendors who make exclusively for Gen6 or Dawn now: Dariofish, Dzheng, Jroulin, Kang1hyun, Karth, Kobamax, Oskarsson, OutofTouch's clothing, Sickleyield

Vendors who make stuff for V4 OR Gen6 & Dawn: 3DSublimeProductions,  Artemis, FWArt, Halcyone (almost none for V4 anymore), Lilflame, Outoftouch's hair (always compat. w. V4 and Gen6), P3Design, Rhiannon, Sabby

Please note that for clothing and hair, only MODELS, not textures are included. This list is by no means exhaustive, and does not include vendors who usually make products compatible with both or all three figures.

 

 

I'm not sure why you would say that, given that every model sold at Renderosity (including hair and clothing) includes textures.  They won't even test one without them.

 

There are a lot of reasons for supporting Genesis 2 Female and DAZ Studio over Poser and Generation 4 and Dawn.  The two platforms are gradually moving further apart in terms of their technology, and a lot of us find DS's technology easier to use - Poser's benefits are all on the rendering end and none on its creation features, and as someone who works with the creative tools, I'm going to choose DS every time.  And of course there's the fact that I can make an extremely good living without ever touching Poser, and supporting both takes twice as long or more. 

 

I'm not going to make the same product twice at the lowest common denominator of features (which is what it takes to support both programs, given how far the tech is drifting apart) when I can make two different products with more complex features instead (by only using DS).
