HD morphs on Genesis 2 work just fine in Poser. But you have to set the subdivision levels to at least 2 or (optimally) 3. 3 gives you a figure with something like a million polys, so the viewport is seriously slowed on ordinary machines. But you don't need to have subdivision turned on at all until render time.

As for Genesis-in-Poser --
Vilters, Wolf -- Gosh, check your egos, fellas. Who are you to say what should be available for other Poser users? Just because Genesis does not work as well in Poser as it does in DS doesn't make it worthless for everyone. I use both Genesis 1 and 2 quite frequently, and I don't see a problem. Yes, I have to use scripts to get it to work. But I also have to use scripts to get V4 to work. Scenefixer, EZSkin, the Perfect Fixes, material switching scripts, clothing fit scripts, posing scripts... the list goes on and on. So what?
So what if Genesis comes in a format that isn't native to Poser? I also use props that come in 3DS format that need to be imported before I can use them.
Frankly, I'm relieved that Daz created the DSON importer. If they hadn't, I'd have spent the last year moaning about how all the new content for V4 was almost entirely made up of endless variations of microskirt and bikini, and I'd have a lot less variety for male figures.
If you don't like how something works, don't use it. Simple. But to suggest that because you personally don't like something, no one else should use it (or even be able to use it) is truly narcissistic.
I'm absolutely bloody SICK of people in this forum telling others what legitimate software/plugins/scripts/etc they should NOT be using.
+1It's just a few months short of 4? years since Genesis came out, and discussions like this are still cropping up? There are a lot of people using Genesis in Poser now (including me) - just look through the Galleries (even top Poser artists like Argus use Genesis/Genesis 2). Does it work as well or the same way as in DS? No it doesn't, but the Genesis figures do work, just with a few limitations compared to how they function in DS. V4 is also far from perfect, and has a lot of additional scripts and fixes available to make her work better in Poser. I just don't get all the play ground quibbling that goes on here.
Sorry to have said anything and interrupted the regularly scheduled insanity, I just find it strange how these arguments continue on and on, and mis-information continues to be propagated by those who don't even use Genesis or Genesis 2. Quite sad, and the main reason I don't even lurk here but once or twice a month any more.
