I just found it. Anyone been using this?

I am trying to figure out if it has any practical use for poser.

Passion is anger and love combined. So if it looks angry, give it some love!

looks like a cool program...I already have ZBrush but will spread this to others that might be interested...it might be very useful for morphing characters for Poser

Never used it but it looks fun ;). Any idea how it exports? I was thinking for things like Poser morphs and stuff.

It looks a lot like Sculptris actually - which is also free, and was bought by pixologic in 2010 who subsequently incorporated it's dynamic properties into zbrush which became dynamesh. (err, at least that's basically how I understand it went).

It uses a heavily teselated mesh, like sculptris, that automatically updates as needed as you sculpt. 

So it's not likely that you could generate morphs with it for poser people, since it would completely destroy the mesh. 

However it could be used to sculpt objects, clothing, etc. You would need a way of retopologizing the model once you're done tho.

Hmmm, apparently I downloaded this in 2010 (v. 02) because it looked interesting - and of course never installed it :-) Looks like it may have been an independent project back then, but now I see '2011 Autodesk, Inc. All rights reserved.' Looks like the boy made good.

lol. That's kind'a funny that autodesk owns it. They likely bought it to incorporate the tech into mudbox because they still think they can compete with zb.
