On a recent thread cited above, images from several different Poserized (rigged for Poser) meshes appear. These still exhibit some or all of the issues seemingly intrinsic to Poser:
  1. inward curving upper arms
  2. shoulder pads
  3. bent-drinking-straw inner elbow

My question is: Are these traits UNAVOIDABLE because of the limits to rigging in Poser, or is it possible to avoid these problems by some sort of advanced technique in the Poser setup room? I know this has been batted around before, and most people cite the weighted and advanced rigging in other apps, which is fine. But are there any new developments in rigging right in Poser?

To tell you the truth, I use Don and Judy because they seem to be less infected with these issues. I may have to stay with them, or move to another app, unless I can find other models to work with.

I have a beautiful mesh I obtained at Turbo Squid, and am considering taking her into the Poser setup room where I have no experience whatsoever. However, if -- no matter what I do -- I will still end up with the three problems mentioned above, then why bother.
