My problem is that the bulk of my poser runtime doesn't have the DS mats (or support). Even if DAZ supplied the Meta-data, I didn't install.

I do love the way the DSON and G2F gals fit their clothing. Add a pose, and the clothing adjusts. Does A4 do that? No. With A4 I'm forever tweaking hips or thighs or boobs ... or even doing post-work to paint over the exposed flesh. Yah, in Poser there are cloth room & magnet tools, but the postwork in Gimp is far faster.

I have you tried Poser Copy morphs? A4 is a morph for Victoria 4. I use the Copy Morph for Aiko4, Girl4 and the She Freak body morphs.
