Can I ask something, and I don’t mean for this to sound critical…are there any new features in this version of Pro that were not in the original Pro? I ask because if not…well, I don’t think 50% off is enough for what’s really a version compatibility patch.
I did purchase the original Pro, but I can’t justify buying it again just so it will work with the current (and only available) version of Studio. In no way do I mean to suggest that the product is not worth the price, but when I purchase any piece of software, I really don’t expect to have to pay more in the future for it to continue to run.

Version compatibility (A lot more involved than a couple of string changes, and recompile), and added support for Genesis and the new daz formats.
The 50% off is on top of the 30% intro price, which makes it actually 65% off…
I know how you feel… That was part of my decision to not write this program as a plugin originally… So I wouldn’t have to spend days rewriting it every time a new version of DAZ was released. But that didn’t pan out with the massive changes DAZ made in DS4.5.
Can we ask for features to be added, DraagonStorm?

The product is already passed QA and in the store….... What kind of features are you thinking about?
I was thinking for your next update…
Anyway, it’d be nice to be able to choose an area limitation based on the area defined by a primitive. In other words, allow the user to create a primitive and use that as the enclosure for SITC to place items. This would be especially helpful for random placement. For instance, place a cone over a Christmas tree prop, and then tell SITC to place 50 ornaments on the tree randomly, limited to the area within the cone.
Also, an option to have the objects “fall” onto the first mesh they encounter. Like toys on a stairwell. Place the toys above the area, set the option to fall, and then the toys get placed, and then descend on the Y axis until they encounter a mesh, where they stop. Or use it to populate a streambed, or create a pile of items.

Cool ideas, when I have extra time I’ll look into how to do stuff like that .......~~~~~~ DraagonStorm wonders if it can even be done in script, or does she need to learn .net and C ~~~~~~..........
I’m pretty sure it can be done in script. I’ll look into it when I get a chance.

There is the new ability to have SITC use the built-in Instances. Now lots of flowers, or trees don’t have to take massive amounts of resources.
EDIT: oh boo, just read the second page and realized that since I got the standard i can’t upgrade to the pro….sure enough it takes the discount off the standard but not the pro version…
too bad, I was going to get the pro version.
Nice thought tho…. ^_^
Ah well, I have something else that can clone for now.
Good job on the upgrade tho, just not for me right now. I will say that i used it often in DS3 (until the last few months when I reinstalled it and it didn’t work anymore)
I bought the Pro…it was worth it even without an extra 50% discount. The plug-ins for Daz and Poser are a steal. I have paid over $1000 for plug-ins for AE, C4D etc. And I don’t want to even talk about Turbosquid when it comes to model prices. You guys do this for the love rather than the money. “Good on ye”

Looking forward to it! In the meantime, got SitCPro, got the discount (thanks), ready to clone around! There gonna be a contest or a challenge this time around?
