I've posted about this in prior similar threads, so, I'll just briefly summarize it here. The tech behind the Face Room comes from a company called Singular Inversions. That company's approach to facial models and morphs is considerably different from what CL and DAZ have done in the past. Bringing in SI undoubtedly carried a cost to CL which is passed on to the consumer. Doing the work necessary to adapt a DAZ figure to the SI tech is apparently being passed onto DAZ. Dan Farr's post at PoserPros sheds further light on the friction over that cost, and on the wording of the P5 EULA. While this apparent turn of events may cause a degree of turmoil in the community, it also ought to be a relief to the third-party creators of content here and at other forums, as it is becoming increasingly clear that the more controversial aspects of the new EULA are not aimed at them.
