She looks like she just learned something new.

Waves back at Ram

Just playing with a few items, using dawn's costume from 3duniverse, Ram's training pants and willow's sneakers also from 3dUniverse. Hair is McKinley which is for Gen8 female converted using gen2fem clone. I added a dforce modifier to the costume.

Still reinstalling and checking out content, just a quick render to help with the tedium of reinstalling. Avenger outfit, classic rolled hair.

Thank you, Pen! ^__^

 

[Pendraia]

Taking a break from playing in Zbrush to do a quick render. Dialled morph using some of my morphs. Clothing is what I've been playing with in ZBrush still very much a wip. Fabiana lights

Looks great, Pen! I miss micro-poly displacement in Poser.

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks, I like that you knew that was what it was...I didn't do the fur shader it's one I bought for iray. Be interesting to see what strand hair looks like.

I used to make Christmas garlands like this in Firefly, but still absent in Superfly. I wonder if CyclesX will have it in unimesh Poser. I hope so.

I'm still on poser 11 that's when I install it.

I have Poser 12, but I still do most of my work in P11. I still consider P12 in WIP format.

Well, not anymore now that the dev team has moved to work on unimesh Poser. I suppose P12 is now final version.

 

[Miss B]

I'll consider it final release version when they have unimesh done. It's definitely a lot closer, that's for sure.

 

[Ken1171]

They have closed up P12 development and moved on to unimesh Poser. So P12 will be the first version to go straight from early access to final version. Personally, I don't think they could make unimesh an update for P12 because it's a whole different code base from ground up. That was also why it was not worth investing time on fixing some issues, because they would have to redo them in unimesh Poser anyway, or in some cases, they would no longer be an issue once unimesh is in place.

I totally agree that they should close P12 as it is, and get into unimesh Poser, because it will take time, and patience is running thin. It was important that they have spent the time to fix all these issues with P12, so we have a more usable version until unimesh Poser comes up. Unimesh will open a lot of doors that have been closed to Poser until now. If they keep working on P12, it will never happen (not enough programmers). So AFAIK, unimesh Poser development has finally started. There was a lot of planning until now because this will significantly change how Poser works inside.

I had originally predicted unimesh Poser would be out this year, but I forgot they were still working in P12, and that a change of this magnitude would require substantial planning before they start doing it. Being a software developer myself, I know how important the planning phase is. So for now, it's P11 and 12.

 

[Miss B]

So, IOW, you think the unimesh version will be Poser 13?

 

[Ken1171]

That would make sense. Unimesh Poser development would have to be in a separate and independent pipeline, since once the core is changed, everything else will instantly stop working. They can't release a partial unimesh version until all these other parts start working again. So it's not just about Poser supporting unimesh internally, but also how to make everything else work with it. There is a good chance nearly everything will have to be redone, which might be a GOOD thing, since the code is decades old, and could benefit from a modern approach. From that alone, Poser could respond many times faster. I believe this could be the very first time when the Poser code is being modernized.

So yes, I believe it will be Poser 13. Even Larry Weinberg told me back in 2016 that this couldn't be just a patch - it would require a new version. Imagine the possibilities if they rewrite Poser from scratch. I am optimistic about it, BUT... the first version would likely be buggy.
