I was just told about this, went to check the thread at that site out of curiosity and - do you mind passing some information to the maker from me please (I don't have an account there)? I see a lot of misconceptions there that can be clarified (I made LF2, along with Chuck Taylor/nerd3d, by the way). Might make things easier, and as much as erotica isn't my cup of tea, I don't have anything against others who like it, so might as well make things easier :)
-LaFemme2 Lite's bikini texture is not actually painted on. It uses a mask with material tricks. If you go into materials, you'll see a material option for "smooth"/PG skin - that doesn't have genital and nipples, but it does have the skin around them.
-LF2 DOES have the Mons Pubis and Labia body parts, like LF1. I don't know where this idea started that she doesn't. If you go into her body actor, in the Tools dials, there's a dial to show her body chips. The Mons Pubis and Labia don't work too well on Lite because she's smooth down there, but with the genital detail included in LF2 Pro, you should see them being posed neatly. Though granted, things aren't modeled to go IN anything, she wasn't initially made to be an erotica model.
-Nothing in LF2 Lite is a merchant resource, but most things in LF2 Pro ARE. Not her base mesh, but yes all her textures, her dev rig meshes etc. You guys might wanna chip in and give Darkseal the Pro version so they can have the dev rigs and the merchant resource textures.
-I have NO IDEA how they got her mesh so cut up and jumbled there but I assure you, it's neat and welded in the obj. Reminder that Poser is NOT Unimesh, so things have polygon groups to work. No idea if Maya knows how to deal with this, Blender loads her mesh perfectly fine.
-Following the Geografting-adjacent method that Chuck explained and redistributing THAT would be a copyright breach - RPublishing owns the rights to LF2. I'd advise to go for the conforming genitals route instead.
I think that's all I remember. I bid them success with the project!
