I followed the tutorial PDXJims gave in the link Panko supplied - and have a question. In #12 of the tut: Load the bones from a V3 clothing top - any recomendations? I experimented, using the FMD, the Array top and was able to make it conform with both - but I lost the morphs native to the armpit hair? Did I do something wrong?

Thanks Stormrage & Lucie. I cannot believe this. I just feel deflated. What can I trust now? I'm not a rich man by any stretch, and what little money I have I spend very carefully - which amounts to about $40 a month, give or take. Pennies compaired to some, I know. But, what little I do buy, I buy with trust that I am getting my money's worth. BMO betrayed that trust. And now GA has betrayed that trust. Will I see a refund? I certainly hope RO does not betray my trust as well.

Joey - you are !@#$ing kidding me. I'm searching now for the original thread - is it here on RO or at PP?

Whoa... what? I purchased one of the Treasure Chests on November 27th of last year. Can someone please point me to the thread that talks about what is going on?

Just out of curiosity - Do gradiations of gray matter on a bump map? If white is high and black is low, I assume these are based on a neutral gray being the plane, yes? If so, do light gray vs. dark gray make gradual highs and lows?

Xena - Thanks for the quick reply again (I fell asleep!) This morning (for me, its really afternoon) has given me new perspective - and I'm going to go ahead and pick up your Xeyes. The just look too good. Maybe I'll see if I can play with the eye morphs myself too... its something I've been slowly getting into. And, just to clearify - I did not mean to imply that your product was incomplete. What I meant to say was, for me - eyes without morphs are not as useful to me as eyes with, even if they look great and are so versatile. Thus, I would have felt like I was purchasing an incomplete product. Hauksdottir - Thanks! You made my day. :)

++ I know that Cath at Mec4D started something along that line with her animated tutorials ... have you checked those out yet? (Which brings up a question ... do you like the animated format?) No, I was not aware. I will definitely check it out. Thanks for the pointer and the quickie with Tailor.

Deep Paint 3d - I think a step by step on one of the Millennium Unimesh figurs would be a tremendous benefit to the community. The Tailor - a step by step on using the tailor would be very helpful as well. I open it... I try to use it... and I get squat. I agree with others - once I am able to successfully do something once, I'm good to go. But, sometimes getting to that 'once' through trial and error gets so frustrating that I simply give up.

Thanks for the quick reply! Are they planned? Not to insult your Xcellent work in any way, but I am >< close to getting them right now... but the lack of morphs is giving me pause. If they are seriously planned then I could easily be swayed, I'm sure. If so, will it be an upgrade? Add-on? I'd just hate to make an investment (even at the Xcellent price you have them at, my current budget is $0 - its only because today is my birthday that I have any money at all to spend) on an unfinished product. I use the dilate/iris size/pupil shape morphs a lot - almost every time in fact. But, damn they do look good!

Xena - Do the dilate Pupil and iris size dials still work with these eyes?

Its a freebie from DAZ if you join the Platinum Club - or it can be purchased from their Speciality Line of products. Here is a direct link: http://secure.daz3d.com/shop.php?op=itemdetails&item=238 But, I suppose if you don't know what it is, you probably don't have it. :( I just think its a super fun model - just very primative.

'Puck' - not 'Duck' - Doh! Thanks for the info on Nadya and Natalia. Ahh - I didnt realize that about MD/AD... How about the Gazer? :-D

These are spe-X-tacular! How about Mayadoll/Animedoll? Or... Oh! Oh! How about fitting the DAZ 'Gazer'? Pretty please?? And, just what are 'Duck', 'Nadya', and 'Natalia' - I've never even heard of these?

I agree, joining the platinum club is an excellent idea. Additionally, V3 is a good investment, imho. If you get the various morph paks, she can change into V3-male, which gives you a completely morphable male figure for the price of a morph pak. Personally, I think V3+morphs is one of the best investments someone could make.
