Why not just install DS4 and use V6 in the program she was made for?

Not being sarcastic, just wondering why you just don't use the software designed for the figure rather than fighting with a kludge that won't make you happy?

From what I've read, many like Poser's morphing brush better.  I really like the morphing brush in 2014 for fitting clothing it's so much better than 2012.  I haven't used Daz Studio so I can't compare against Daz myself.   I'm familiar with Poser now.  There's the learning curve to switch, and I've also purchased Octane for Poser, I'd have to buy that again for Daz

You don't have to switch anything.  You can use both programs you know......... DS doesn't have a morph brush at all. 

Autofit doesn't work with DSON.

DS HD is DAZ proprietary so that's not going to work in Poser with DSON.

It just makes little sense to me to use a program with a kludge for a figure that works in a free program made specifically FOR that figure.

If you want to use V6, use her in DS.  For the rest continue to use Poser.

Glitter, A POSER user wants use POSER to render content and wants help accomplishing that. If you can't help, don't bully users or play forum cop trying to direct what can be discussed in this forum. If you can't or won't help, there's absolutely no need to reply when you haven't even installed the product on your install to even render an opinion. It's really posts like these reduce forum participation because Poser users can't even ask questions without these types of comments.  I think Rawart was correct when he posted his observation in that other thread. Anyway, to the OP: There are several threads in the forums on how to use the DSON importer or you can find Joepublic's thread on how to convert the genesis characters to a native CR2 that will have less functionality but will run better in Poser. But you should know that there are people that are using Genesis in poser and rendering, and there are some tips that other people that actually use it in Poser should be able to answer.

LOL Male_M3dia, thanks.  Maybe Glitterati is made of money.  It would mean me learning the DAZ interface (not too big a deal since it's free...  but my free time is limited).  I'm still learning in Poser, but I think I can navigate around pretty well so my workflow is fairly efficient.  Then I'd have to buy Octane for Daz, and the SSS for it too.  Not to sound like too big a fanboy, but I really like Octane's rendering.  I'm sure I could fiddle with lights in Daz for months and still not render as well. I should probably start a new thread, my interest is a little peaked in trying out Daz Studio since I use Octane now for rendering...  I thought Poser's rendering was better, but for me that's a moot point now.  The plus is that I would only pay to upgrade 1 piece of software instead of 2.  I've seen closeups of the face, hands, legs and feet that have nice detail.
