"Professional Artists that have to do this for a living isn't clamoring for an HD tool as it's not available; neither should you."
I'm not a professional nor do i want to be one, so I can clamor for anything I want. Thank you very much.
Yes, this discussion has been had, but back in the G1 days I still believed/hoped that keeping the HD tool "exclusive" was just a short term marketing ploy during the introduction phase of Genesis.
I still stick to my opinion I had back then: Given that Poser and Studio aren't polygon sensitive for quite some time now, there is no inherent value in submitting oneself to the "industry standard" low res mesh + SubD paradigma.
HD wasn't introduced until part way into the Genesis 2 series. Note that the Genesis 1 Creature Creator Morphs do not use HD. DS and Poser are definitely polygon sensitive, which is why many people render in layers for large scenes and why Instancing was such a key feature for DS.
