HiveWire3D has announced that Poser Pro 11 will now include Dawn Special Edition Community Bundle, the Dusk Special Edition Community Bundle, the Baby Luna Community Bundle, the HiveWire Horse Base, and Gorilla for Dusk. It seems that La Femme will have someone to talk to and diapers to change.
Any one's heart racing with anticipation? Is concluding that *deleted* hasn't much faith in La Femme being too cynical? I'm taking it for granted that Hivewire3D is getting a piece of the action in royalties and potentially a boost in sales of items that support Dawn and Dusk. Of course, the HiveWire Horse is nothing to sneeze at (I mean that seriously).
But still, as pleasant as they are, these measures are neither persuasive nor reassuring. An outstanding 3D horse, and some Poser stuff that nobody uses.

It will be nice to see P-11 come with usable base figures included with the upgrade. Anything is better than the Poser people that were provided.

The lack of genitalia means that some vendor will profit by creating a prop and morphs to make her more appealing  for images that involve sex.

I have seen some improvement to La Femme and the support for the figure seems to be growing I still prefer V4 and M4 base figures/  I know old school,  but I make them work quite well

As for Hive wire's animal collection,  they are impressive

Still, if Dawn and Dusk have no privates by now, I must confess I doubt they ever will. For all that, keep a good thought and, remember, no one can predict the future.

It's not even the problem with the Gens, it's the figures themselves. You know I actually offered to help and give suggestions on their figures (because even though i sell with DAZ competition keeps them from just sitting on their laurels and keep innovating, so giving hints to competitors that have been playing makes sense) and their foolish pride got in way and got me banned (Like I care, I'm still earning my coins unlike Haywire with their dead-eyed figures).So poser now has those same dead-eyed figures that no one wanted when they were released years ago as part of their content. If that's what they want to do, it's on them, but if they don't want to go out of business they need to look at things that bring in coins 

And i'n not saying what I had is the end-all (especially when I only devoted 2 days to it), but I was pointing out the things that may help them to put their figures in a better position than gathering dust.. and obviously they think doing the same thing multiple times will actually work a few iterations later.. oh well, I wish them luck

Hivewire.. they don't know how to handle their business. That's why no one pays them any attention. That's why when DAZ was selling their animals they got quickly dropped because they had a thread on their site and their customers were bashing DAZ.. you know the ones that was giving hivewire business. Just ridiculous. They should have put a stop to that, but they didn't. At best they should have said "We're selling our stuff through DAZ", and closed the thread, But they let their partner get trashed which you DON'T do if you're in a business relationship. DAZ certainly don't have to stand by for that. And note, Hivewire was in the same PA agreement that I'm in. You don't do that in a PA relationship... PERIOD. And that's in addition to some of the behind-the-scenes stuff I know that happened before DAWN was released. I won't get into it, but I'll say everyone says how DAZ is so horrible but some of these people do shady stuff far and beyond what they accuse DAZ of, but want people to think of them as innocent.. nope!

Oh well. 

It's sad to see these companies that want to compete but they're too petty to want to actually want do things in a business-like manner.
