Hi DaleB

With the regrettable exception of functional IK foot/floor contact solver,

Daz studio 4.12 has ALL of the character animation features you have listed Including four options for audio based lipsynch.

Sadly posers animation tools have been left to languish for a decade :-(

Hey, Wolf! Oh trust me, I know. But hope springs eternal. I'm rebuilding things, as my CG box was utterly horked by a Win 10 upgrade, to the point it wouldn't boot. I do have the Iclone 5.5 and 3DXchange we talked about long long ago, so I have that work around (just have to import the obj's and scale them properly to build basic environments to animate in, then import into Poser for detail work then out to Vue to render. Bit of a Rube Goldberg pipeline, but it works, so....). I don't expect anything in the first real release as I know changing code takes time to get right. But if no one asks, things get ignored for the higher volume stuff. If they do address the issues in the cloth room and hair room, they almost have to address at least some of the animation issues, as those processes are animated. One can but hope
