Hi Peng, You are quite correct of course. However I think a painful decsion has to be made sooner than later regarding legacy figure/content support. and dumping old vestigial figures like "Mikki" into included bundles only makes moving forward more difficult

You wont be able to truly modernize your program until you have uniform figure standards that can be implemented across the entire software feature set ,particulary any updated animation& clothing content rigging tools.

Bondware has already taken steps to kill off older intra competing versions of poser and get all users on the same version ,a Wise move IMHO

They have taken a firm (albeit controversial) position on keeping the "phone home" feature.

IMHO they really need to forcefully settle the competing figures dilemma one way or another and begin the careful process of updating the features of the core program to work with standardized native figures. The way they all used to with the EF& SM natives

Daz had the advantage of doing this with every version of Daz studio from the outset. First with Millenuim 3 and eventually genesis of course.

Reallusion has taken the approach of shape projection to enable their native avatars to impersonate the shapes of a few choice, popular third party figures imported via CC3 (Daz genesis ,V4,M4 & Hivewire bases).

Done!!!... moving on.

Now they have turned their focus INWARD and introduced two native features for the Iclone/CC3 NATIVE avatars in the form of a much needed human SSS skin shader system and facegen type "headshot" plugin for creating Iclone avatars from your real life photos of people..

They have updated the realtime lighting system and the Iclone core user base is thrilled.

Bondware owns the Poser figure platform it is time to start acting like a landlord and take full agency.
