He He, never said that they are a conspiracy.

I do use JCMs regularly myself.

But I'm just wondering: JCMs are as old as V3, perhaps older. (I remember a Posette freebie having some)

But first DAZ gets out of their way to avoid them in V4, stuffing gazillions of magnets into her rig instead.

Then they develop TRI-AX featuring three separate weightmaps per joint to avoid both JCMs and magnets.

And now they drop TRI-AX and suddenly a single map + lots of JCMs are the latest, greatest thing.

I'm just a little confused now.  :-)
