@DeathMetalDesk:

Users of MAX, Maya, C4D, ZBrush are usually professional CGI Artists.

They are expected to build their own tools from the ground up.

Users of Poser/DAZ are usually hobbyists. The only thing they are expected to do is to properly type their credit card # once they are finished with their purchase of premade content.

After that, they, like any other consumer, can rightfully expect their purchase to work as advertised without any need of "fixing".

This of course includes base figures, too.

Personally, I can pretty much do anything a professional CGI-Artist can do, but I usually don't waste my time re-inventing the wheel.

That's why my "personal tools" are highly modified 3rd Gen DAZ figures. I don't need to feed my ego by building my "very own" figure from scratch. (And I don't think I could create a better topology than the DAZ professionals, anyway.)

I rather model stuff that doesn't exist yet.

Anyway, I expect none of this from my fellow DAZ/Poser users.

I just expect anyone who takes money for his work to do a good job.
