It would be nice if they would make up again and offer easy use in poser. Importing can be done but it's just so much trouble versus having content that's easy to load. That said a good open source figure that could easily be used by both software programs would be great.

I wish that Smith Micro and Daz3D could combine their talents so that G8 (or whatever) is built right into Poser. Let's face it, Poser allows greater control over many different parameters that Daz Studio doesn't match, but Daz3D make far superior figures. Combine the two in one package, throw in a decent particles system, and you'd have one killer app for 2018.

It's called Blender ;)

for my comic, a teen figure would be useful. Male figures are very useful as there aren't many. Love esther

Also for a female figure I would like an underclothes morph for the female figure, that I would use to copy into the clothes, that would make clothing tops/shirts hang down from female figure's breasts instead of sticking underneath them and between them like a second skin.

That won't happen. Daz changes the underlying tech in the figures too often. See: Tri-Ax weight mapping, as just one example.

SM would be on the hook for tech support for all eternity, but wouldn't make any money off of it.

"Far superior figures" is an opinion, not a fact. From my view, they are freakshows, afa body proportions.

I don't know what you on about body proportions because every proportion aspect on those figures can be easily adjusted via many morph dials without breaking anything. Scaling and proportions on any body part can be easily change to your liking, so really, that is a poor argument. Those figures are designed to be easily changed to your liking. Maybe if you actually tried it you would see for yourself that your argument has no basis, and is opinion, not a fact.
