... PUT FRICKEN WIG POSE INFORMATION IN CHARACTER POSE FILES! This is one of my biggest pet peeves with buying a pose set or getting pose sets off freestuff. I'm about ready to pull my own hair out! I can easily spend tons of time getting a wig exact on a character's head only to have all my work go down the toilet when I click on a bought or downloaded pose and have my wigs pop around or rotate. I want the pose the author promised and not my wigs moved all over. One pose I used popped my character's wig nearly 10 units on the yaxis above her head and squished it down to 1% on the xscale. Had a bear of a time even finding the damn thing till I turned the camera to the side. Yes, I know about the lock actor option and I use it a lot (almost forced to now a days) but there are times I want to pose the hair myself with an MT or something. Its a pain to lock the wigs, pose the figure then unlock the wigs, IF you can remember to do any of that to start with. Worse yet is always double checking a wig to see if its locked before I use a third party pose. I'm asking, begging, pleading pose makers to PLEASE DON'T include the wig's info in their poses that they give away or sell. I can some what understand poses in freestuff. That's free and I can't look a gift horse in the mouth but a purchased pose set should NEVER EVER EVER offset a wig, period unless that's its sole intent. Also, if you are selling or giving away a pose only set (meaning a set with just pose info and not MT info or scale info) PLEASE make sure you do NOT include MT settings. That's also a pain seeing body parts grow and shrink and characters not fitting into clothes after working for hours trying to get some garment to fit. Thanks for hearing my rant.
