What exactly did you expect it to do, morph her feet into rollerskates? ?

That would be absolutely BITCHIN'! Can ya make it do that? :D

No, I just thought it would pose (& unpose) the whole foot & not just the toes, as the posing dials do fer the arms (I guess my meanin' didn't come across clearly) as it's called HighHeel & not ToeFit.

Thanks fer the attention. Hopefully I won't find too many more nits to pick... but I'm lookin' ;)

Well... after all the explodin' thighs & general borkin', here's what I've managed;

Light postwork fer colour correctin'.

OK. So... Poser Pro '14. I already mentioned having "limited success" in '14 w/ a couple of notable joint explosions (the thigh Side-Side controls if you missed my previous comment)

Due to the fact I HATE Poser 11 (is a sluggish, buggy, crash-happy POS) I went to playin' w/ LaFemme in the much Friendlier '14 to see if I could mitigate some of the problem. Turns out it's already done, I just had to find it.

Body> JCM Controls> JCM Master Switch... turn that shit off (dial it to 1)

Body> JCM Controls> JCM Manual Override Arms/ Legs... dial in whichever ones you need EXCEPT the Thigh Side-Side (leave that evil bastard alone).

Bob's yer Uncle!

I'm sure there'll be other incompatibility issues to be found, but here's a start fer gettin' her into '14 :D

Lookit everone goin' "Ooooohhhh!" & "Aaaaahhhh!" & "Shiny!"... Yeah, she shiny. But I'm not about to let Duane have all the fun of pickin' nits.

First off, I wasn't plannin' to buy this. I've sunk enough into "The Next Best Thing" enough times to be leery of new figures.But then I saw a few renders & figgered she looks nice, & bends nice, & then I saw that she was free. Well then! Mebbe I'll check her out. Then I get to the checkout & find out she's not free after all (@ which point I may have thrown a bit of a shit fit in chat). But then I came into some disposable income & figgered WTF? So I picked up the HD morfs to enable her freeness. Made her a shiny new Runtime to hold all the stuff I don't have fer her, fired up the Poser, loaded her up, &...

GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY!!! Lookit that thigh gap! I could drive a truck through there! Yeah, I realize that her default pose will be a asset in the Fitting Room for pants, but still... I see them legs & all I can think is "bad hockey goalie". So I proceed to fix her default pose, & it literally took me minutes (yes, MINUTES!) to repose her legs & reset some limits & save out a base cr2 to where I deemed her functional for my use. But that's just first impressions, not why I'm here.

So I'm goin' through all the morfs seein' how they look, & when I find HDHighHeels I thinks to myself "Hey Self" ('cuz that's what I calls meself), "this could be really handy!". I zooms in on her feet to have a gander, spin the dial &... it destroyed her feet. Dafuq??? Then I noticed there are no limits set & I spun down to like -10 or sumpin', so I typed in 0 &... nothin'. Dafuq II, The Sequil. I type in 1 &... Oh! What was that? I zooms in fer a closer look, & yeah, it did sumpin'; it slightly pointed her toes inwards. OK, well... that could mebbe be used somewhere, somewhen, but the impression I got from the morf inj thumbnail & the foot pose that loaded w/ the inj was that the morf would apply the entire pose, not just squeeze the toes in. Furthermore, to get back to a flat footed pose I had to either reset the 3 foot actors on each foot or restore the figure. The 1st is a PITA, & you can be damned sure I'm not gonna restore the figure to fit a customly morfed character into a pair of sneakers. Nor is there a Remove pose/ inj. IMO this is either poor implementation or just simply borked.

Then there's the IK on by default ting. That's soooo Poser 5 era.

Overall though... she'll do.

On a side note, I saw a bit of discussion as to whether she works in Pro '14, to which Sam responded "It's not like anything will explode. Probably."

She exploded. (see image)

This is thigh Side-Side 60, but some poses I tried stretched the distortion right up to her ears. Only happens on the Thighs Side-Side (that I've found so far) & only in the "outward" direction (Left positive/ Right negative values)

A 'nother comment mentioned that the materials didn't work, but the SimplePBR mats worked fer me.

I'm not sure I understand the problem... Looks fine to me :D

That one I have... & it ent in there.

Yeah... I don't have a Primitives folder in Geometries. Might be the problem.

As for importing .obz files, they're considered as a Wavefront OBJ in the import menu.

Miss B...

A) Geometries are not exclusive to figures. Many (most?) props have geometry files. And I looked in the libraries anyway... wasn't there.

1. If there wasn't an .obj file, why would Poser ask me where it is?

And in conclusion... me fix. Made a modified render dome type tingy in Poser; Loaded a sphere, flattened the bottom w/ a magnet, used the grouping tool to invert the normals, scaled it up REAL big, exported it to a safe folder as an .obj, used a script to compress the .obj to .obz, moved it to my Geometries folder, fired up Poser & Bob's me uncle :D

OK, I got the opposite; Poser can't find construct.obz when I open it or start a new scene. Can't find it in Geometries. I gotta reinstall all the content just to find it, or might it be hidin' somewhere else?

Shiny :D

What do I want? Billions & zillion & jillions of useful & unique morfs (unique as in none of that BigBoobs value -1 = TinyTitties value -1 bo-shett thas so common). Asymmetry fer everting. Squishy morfs (such as ass/ thigh flattenin' fer sittin' on a rigid seat, or... you know. Boobs :D ). Logical morf groupings; head morfs on head, divided by sculptin' & expression categories w/ left/ right subgroups fer the aforementioned asymmetry. Big-assed 1000 pg manual w/ animated gif previews of all the gajillion morfs. Add my vote fer JCMs. Scalable limbs (they wrecked that w/ V4 & I don' use newer Daz or any Poser figures). Hair transparency patches; brows, pits, crotch, chin/ chest on yr male fig. Dunno if is possible in a single fig, but I'd like to see dual-stage joint limits (i.e; "normal" limits + "contortionist" or "under strain" limits). Since ya mentioned yr aimin' fer Poser use, @ least basic Face Room compatibility, & figure scaling that don' bork the hands on the Fashion Model setting. Shoulder blades. Rib cage scaling. Near-surface bone detail morfs (joints, pelvis, ribcage, spine, etc). And everthin' everbody else said.

Well... ya did ask :D

No complainig???

Then how are we to voice our dissatisfaction @ the direction this site is headed?

Oh, wait... I fergot; we're just s'posed to eat it & smile. My bad.

"And Freebass, that was really uncalled for."

And what exactly was uncalled for? My voicing an opinion? My statement of fact? Or perhaps my choice to speakly bluntly in plain english? Do tell. Did I suggest filtering any content submissions? Did I suggest removing anything? Did I personally attack anyone? Did I suggest anythin' other than 'Rosity stop this link ban? Uhhh... that would be no, no, no, & no.

Here's a lil' heads up; there are those of us who come from a world where praise/ merit was earned, where awards were given fer winnin' (not merely fer playin'), & offense was taken not given. And ya know what? That was a damned sight better world than this modern PC/ SJW crybaby society in which one must walk on eggshells or just shut the fuck up lest the slightest comment hurt someone's feelies. I fer one refuse to play that bullshit game, & anyone who doesn't like my views (or method of statin' them) is free to ignore me.

"Just let me know if you want this comment removed FreeBass"

Nope. I said it, & I meant it.

I don' mean to disparage those who have uploaded "sub-par" items, in fact I applaud them fer havin' the balls to do it when I've seen so many ppl too intimidated to show off their work. But facts are facts; when anybody can upload (practically) anythin', overall quality is gonna suffer.

OK, perhaps "shit" was a poor choice of words fer this point... how 'bout "unusable"? Whatever ya wanna call it, if someone here asks where to find a "X", I fer one am gonna direct them to the best "X" I know of, whether thas a prop, texture, tut, or whatever. And if that gets me banned (or whatever the penalty may be), well there's about 15 years worth of accumulated information the Community loses access to. Your ('Rosity's) loss, not mine.

P.S: Don' ferget to take my years of acquired knowledge & multiply it by the number of others who have been run off/ lost faith & left.

There's a coupla major flaws in this whole "Only Our Freebies" debacle:

1. The Freebies search don' work fer shit,
2. A large percentage of the Freebies ARE shit, &
3. Discounting the previous 2 points, Rendo Freebies don' have all the shit one could want, anyway

Therefore; offsite links. Expecting ppl to get all their needs here is just egotistical in the highest extreme. STOP IT!!!
