In light of the recent confusion over the use of The Tailor to make morphs for Vicki and Michael 2, I just want to clearly state what DSI's policy on it is this in regard to our products, so there is no controversy. While we respect DAZ's right to implement their own policies, we don't want to restrict or encumber anyone from making clothing or accessories for our products or morphing existing clothing to fit new characters for our products. You can use The Tailor or any other morphing method you want to make clothing fit Dina or Vina or any of our characters for Dina or Vina (Carmen, Cherry, Dina Z) without having to use an encoding method on the distributed product. If you want to make fit morphs in clothing for other characters made by 3rd parties, such as Darina by pam and Katia by Handspan Studios, you will need to contact them to find out what their policies are. Other current distribution guidelines still apply. Meaning you can distribute new morphs for a DSI figure or a current piece of clothing in a cr2. You cannot distribute an obj file or a cr2 that has had the grouping tool used on it (that embeds part of the mesh in the cr2). If you have used the grouping tool to morph your clothing, please transfer the morphs to a "clean" cr2 before you distribute them. If you change a figure or clothing item in a way that necessitates a new geometry file that still contains parts of the original, you must use some method that ensures the end user has the original product. Using ObjMover and/or Maconverter to encode a pcf file is the most used method. We are working on a male character right now (no ETA yet, but we are well into the process) and the same policies will apply to him. More news to come as we make more progress.
