I think a lot of people want new male figures and content because they still want to use POSER. M4/F4 were the last non-Genesis men Daz had offered, even though they have conforming clothes issues in Poser that they don't in Daz Studio. When one buys a human male figure one should get human male genitalia without having to buy special pro packages. Weight Mapping was supposed to be Poser's answer to Genesis, but it hasn't been. Genesis isn't well implemented in Poser and from what I have read, the Genesis 3 figure is even worse. The last time Smith Micro made an effort to offere and support Poser specific figuers was the G2 series. For a while they had lots of clothing and accessories for them--but they still looked a bit off, had limited texture map selection and lacked facial hair options. I wish someone would do something like Apollo exclusively for Poser with vendor support for textures and outfits or at very least Smith Micro should supply better, handsome human figures in the next release which people will want to use. Poser Worold has more male outfits than you can find here. Miki seems the only human figure that SM wants to support and though she's pretty, there is no male equivalent and she still has limited outfits.

I still love Poser best. Daz Studio is slow and cumbersome on my computer (even the 64 bit version). I fear that if someone doesn't step up to the plate and develop more new human figures that are Poser Specific, that Poser will become extinct. If everyone is so ga-ga over Genesis and Poser doesn't develop native support for the Genesis figure or Smith Micro doesn't come up with something equivalent, eventually people will just get D/S free and no one will want Poser anymore.
