Lowering the price of the bridge isn't really what people want. What people want is for you to come out with a single product called VWD Daz Studio edition that is a version of VWD without Poser support but with the Daz plugin built-in. That product should come with a single installer that should "just work." You should then work out a deal with philemot where you pay him a percentage of sales or just buy him out outright. You're not spending enough time thinking about what your customers need. They want things to be simple. Having to buy two separate products is too confusing.

We also want easy presets. This isn't just about making things easier for the customers, but about marketing too. You should be releasing free presets for common products onto sharecg and elsewhere once every week/month as part of your marketing. Where are my Wilmap VWD presets? Where are my MFD presets? Where is the easy VWD equivalent to Daz autofit?

Hello,

My 2cents: Installing is not a problem for me as it is very similar with zbrush or photoshop and bridges in DS4. Another example: Octane render: you must buy the bridge you want AND an octane license

All dynamic solutions are not equivalent to autofit/conforming because the results are not the same! Yes there is a learning curve. After learning the different parameters (and i'm far from mastering all of them) I have the results I want (more or less !). I'm also not sure that the standard parameters would be the one I choose for the results I want.

My first question is : how I want the clothe react to my character pose for the render I want ? I still read the manual and still learn new things.

I don't buy a tool for what it will give me in the future but for what it gives now. And VWD was the best tool I bought to improve my level of quality so it's a bargain! Of course I hope that Gerald will improve it.

Some shameless promotion: I wouldn't show the conforming clothe (Vision Silk robe) without VWD you would laugh! I have 4 diiferent renders with the same character, clothes but different poses. The VWD parameters were not the same for each. Here is one :

Cheers!
