Lookit everone goin' "Ooooohhhh!" & "Aaaaahhhh!" & "Shiny!"... Yeah, she shiny. But I'm not about to let Duane have all the fun of pickin' nits.

First off, I wasn't plannin' to buy this. I've sunk enough into "The Next Best Thing" enough times to be leery of new figures.But then I saw a few renders & figgered she looks nice, & bends nice, & then I saw that she was free. Well then! Mebbe I'll check her out. Then I get to the checkout & find out she's not free after all (@ which point I may have thrown a bit of a shit fit in chat). But then I came into some disposable income & figgered WTF? So I picked up the HD morfs to enable her freeness. Made her a shiny new Runtime to hold all the stuff I don't have fer her, fired up the Poser, loaded her up, &...

GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY!!! Lookit that thigh gap! I could drive a truck through there! Yeah, I realize that her default pose will be a asset in the Fitting Room for pants, but still... I see them legs & all I can think is "bad hockey goalie". So I proceed to fix her default pose, & it literally took me minutes (yes, MINUTES!) to repose her legs & reset some limits & save out a base cr2 to where I deemed her functional for my use. But that's just first impressions, not why I'm here.

So I'm goin' through all the morfs seein' how they look, & when I find HDHighHeels I thinks to myself "Hey Self" ('cuz that's what I calls meself), "this could be really handy!". I zooms in on her feet to have a gander, spin the dial &... it destroyed her feet. Dafuq??? Then I noticed there are no limits set & I spun down to like -10 or sumpin', so I typed in 0 &... nothin'. Dafuq II, The Sequil. I type in 1 &... Oh! What was that? I zooms in fer a closer look, & yeah, it did sumpin'; it slightly pointed her toes inwards. OK, well... that could mebbe be used somewhere, somewhen, but the impression I got from the morf inj thumbnail & the foot pose that loaded w/ the inj was that the morf would apply the entire pose, not just squeeze the toes in. Furthermore, to get back to a flat footed pose I had to either reset the 3 foot actors on each foot or restore the figure. The 1st is a PITA, & you can be damned sure I'm not gonna restore the figure to fit a customly morfed character into a pair of sneakers. Nor is there a Remove pose/ inj. IMO this is either poor implementation or just simply borked.

Then there's the IK on by default ting. That's soooo Poser 5 era.

Overall though... she'll do.

On a side note, I saw a bit of discussion as to whether she works in Pro '14, to which Sam responded "It's not like anything will explode. Probably."

She exploded. (see image)

This is thigh Side-Side 60, but some poses I tried stretched the distortion right up to her ears. Only happens on the Thighs Side-Side (that I've found so far) & only in the "outward" direction (Left positive/ Right negative values)

A 'nother comment mentioned that the materials didn't work, but the SimplePBR mats worked fer me.
