A bridge area would go well with the lovely sailor uniforms that you've made, Cybertenko :)

I suspect one reason the Hivewire cat only has a rather limited range of breeds and colours so far is that they seem to only have a fairly small base of actual modellers and texturers. Given that the Hivewire team is currently working on a large and very varied range of animal models , all at the same times - dogs of all sorts, big cats, lions/tigers, house cats ( there's a WIP Siamese), horses, deer of all sorts, elephants, cattle and much much more, it's no wonder they get a bit behind with add-ons for already released models. But, the results are well worth waiting for :)

The only fault I've noticed with the HW kitty is that it default loads with claws visible. In real life, cat's have their claws hidden unless they're using them :) That's how they keep them so nice and sharp :) But there IS a morph to hide claws :)

One thing I have noticed, that I forgot to mention in my earlier post. I no longer seem to be even able to ACCESS Renderosity through the microsoft Edge browser. I tried for several days now..and all I seem to do is sit and stare at a blank white screen for minutes at a time :( The Firefox browser seems to work. but slowly

I can never figure out why this endless need to change things ? It seems to be a change purely for the sake of change..never mind actually IMPROVING functionality? It's like the sort of thing that happens in an office/govt environment..someone new takes over a position and the very first thing they do is to re-arrange all the proceedures..purely to put their stamp on things to "justify" their elevation to the job :( This change seems to fall into that category..change purely for the sake of things :( Has it actually IMPROVED things..finding anything now seems actually SLOWER than previously ?

OK..one thing I don't like is that the ability to search freestuff seems to be restricted..I can't find any way to find to search for any specific category by using a keyword ? Say for instance..I want to find any items related to "Police" ? It no longer seems to have a user defined search ? You choose the freestuff section..and the only readily accessible search box is restricted to marketplace items ?

No..it doesn't move. If you want *that * sort of render..you'll need to improvise..like with the Mil Dog. The modellers needed to keep within certain bounds...

Pretty well all external parts..except one I've noticed. The paws and face are waaaay more flexible than the old mildog.

Yes..PE looks very natural :)

Thanks for the info - I'll explore those options..

My first render of the new doggie

All the bitchiness here in this thread is rather disappointing, frankly. :( Lets not get lost in disagreements over so-called "ethics". Let's concentrate on the FIGURE herself - how she performs. Like other 3rd party Poser figures, she'll survive only if other modellers produce stuff for her. Who remembers Apollo Maximus these days? It's early days yet for PE, I'm hoping she catches on.

I love PE..still figuring out stuff like fitting V4 stuff to her..but I'll get there eventually with the help of posts like the above. :) I have one (only one ??) question ..as PE evolves..will the upgrades to her functionality ( eg..her morph dials and rigs) be free updates or will we have to pay more for her ? I'm not referring to custom morphs and texures from 3rd parties..just the base model.

My Favourite "anthro" figures have to be those V4/M4/K4 morphs put out by Sparky over on the Philosophers Egg site. So many different ones :)

I think I read somewhere that some of her dials aren't operational as yet. They're for future work that's still on-going and to be released at a later date. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong ? So far, I'm having a lot of fun playing with her..especially her facial rig dials :)
