We all agree about the ratios between a PNU and the various other units according to Poser. No amount of arguing will change the 103.2 inch = 1 PNU fact in Poser today.

Where some disagree is whether the Poser size of an inch/meter/foot is wrong and has been since Poser 6. The argument against it is simply that the most popular figure (V4) will not fit furniture, cars, or guns made to that scale. Therefore - it must be wrong and the furniture etc. is the wrong size.

According to this philosophy, it does not matter what Poser says is the height of V4 - her height is officially approx. 5' 10" and our technique of measuring her according to the program's measuring system is simply incorrect - prima facie.

Then you get Dr. Geep, where the scale is based on a desire to type inch-motivated numbers into OBJ files by hand, and nothing agrees with it in either the Poser scale or the de facto Vicky scale.

 


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
