Allow a small comment please; What upsets most end - user / customers is the nature of the errors made, and how these slipped through the system.:

The documented errors are of the kind the community accepts from beginners, from free stuff creators, from the less experienced, but not from a well respected content creator.

All reported factual and documented issues are so basic, They all surfaced within hrs of release. =>  They should have been seen by the creators, the beta-test team, and the Renderosity QC team. **=> The whole system failed.

No figure will ever be perfect, agreed. If this release proves anything at all?

It proves the value of an independent, dedicated, motivated, technical beta-test team from day1.

Facial shapes, body shapes, large or small breasts do not matter; That is the artistical freedom; => The playground of the creator.

The technical side should have a, and I can not repeat this enough, an independent technical beta-team from day1.

True artists are so focused on the artistical value that they sometimes make the most basic technical errors.
=> These have to be reported and corrected in the beta-test cycle, and that's why you need an independent technical beta- team from day1.

The material setup, the rigging, the JCM's, can all be pached up with an update. What worries most technical reporters is the assymetrical obj file.

The last asymmetrical native Poser figure with an asymmetrical obj file was Sydney, a long time ago. The newer Poser features need "figure object file symmetry" to work properly. That's why some of us have been hammering SM's door down => KEEP the figures symmetrical ........ PLEASE !

The application and the figures need to be "in sync" to work properly.
And Poser needs symmetrical object file figures for all its newer functions to work as designed.

For Scarlet's release? The whole Scarlet beta-test cycle failed. Including the Renderosity QC.

**The only lesson that can be learned is: Install an independent technical capable beta- system from day1, and listen to your beta-testers.
Have a nice day all.
