To me, the various Genesis figured may well have been to highlight the technological capabilities of Studio, but it's a shame the vendors haven't. Clothes are still being made for G2 that are no different in mesh/texture quality than some stuff made for V3/A3. Higher poly count does not make the outfit better. Skins are also very poor compared to what is available now for V4.

BTW, I'm not saying ALL clothes for Genesis characters are poor, but they are also not hard to find. Look at the promo renders and they almost all look like plastic dolls. I've been looking at the characters of late, and not been that impressed. As I said in another thread, nothing I have seen to make me jump ship.

I agree with you but I don't think the quality issue is restricted to Genesis 2 or just clothes.  It is difficult to find quality products and it has seemed to get harder in recent years.  Also the prices are all over the place, in general the are way too low for the effort put in but I have paid $10 for a scene that was brilliant and $25 for a scene that I had to modify a great deal to render anything like the promos. That is why I do not think the prices for Genesis 3 are unreasonable but the prices do add up so before I commit to any new figure I want to know the quality is there.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
