Thank you so much, Catharina! I am beyond excited--it will be like Christmas morning when she's released!
You welcome, same here ! as much excited as you are ! because it is gonna be something else on so many levels !
And you know me, I don't praise things if they are not truly worth it.
Very good sign indeed !I will take this long period of silence as a good sign
The final setups takes always the most time , no room for errors

the last 10% of the project takes at least 90% of the time
I'm in that same situation with a client-server app I'm finishing up. I've been "finishing it up" for the last 3 months. Hope to <deity||not> it's demonstrably finished when I have to demo it, soon. Luckily, lockdown gives me an extra 2 weeks. Branch merging now... uhg.

That's true , but the whole work behind a functional human figure is hidden from the view and sometimes not appreciated how much time it consume. You make one mistake and everything need to go back from the beginning , it is huge responsibility as you can't just sent update later in time after release as that would cause a huge reaction chain. Patience is a virtue , some things just taking a little more time, and there is nothing you can do to speed it up, time frames don't works with this kind of job .the last 10% of the project takes at least 90% of the time
I don't want to be a spoiler , but trust me, it is worth the wait , more than ever before ..
For that you need to have the build to be done 100% , I am sure there will be enough time after that for artists to create supporting products .
I have also personal products that are still waiting to be setup .
When the time comes , Chris will announce everything .

Absolutely.
Learned that meshing and rigging. "Back to drawing board" more than once, wasted weeks of work.
I only had to make tiny adjustments to my Dawn 2.0 pose set once the toe rigging was completed. I don't expect any serious tweaking will be needed for the final release.
Rigging conforming clothing is another matter. My Dawn 2.0 clothing product is on hold until we get the final release version and morphs.

When is Dawn 2.0 supposed to be released and will it be released in time for Poser 12?
Chris is going to make official statement when it is ready.
I have moved some of the posts here:
Use of Dynamic Subdivision in ZBrush + Morphs
And deleted a few.
I know they are not all related to that topic, so if you want them moved to a new thread elsewhere, please ask one of the Community Volunteers to do so.
PLEASE keep this thread on target for info about the official HiveWire Dawn 2 product.
If you want to discuss add-on products you're making, or technical stuff, please start or put it in another existing thread.
Thanks for your understanding

Hello.
The new Dawn figure looks great. I haven't been following the progress but from what I've seen of the base I'm very intrigued. This may be the figure I've been seeking as a good base for my Poser morphing pursuits. I assume that Dawn 2 will support subdivision morphs, but I'd like to see a wireframe of the base resolution topology, as I find morphing and sculpting on the base resolution mesh in Mudbox and Blender my typical practice. Have any base resolution wireframe images been shown? Preferably smooth shaded wires?

All previews all with the base resolution smooth shaded , just go back in the thread .
I did a lot of morphs on the base resolution and it works amazing .
