  I don't disagree with this, but rather the insistence that figure specific HD is required.

  Ultimately  I think it just depends on what you like to render whether you find this necessary or not.

  For rendering men, especially males who ripped I need HD. I don't really think its much of a choice any longer. Until they make a separate mesh for the men, which adds the details in certain body parts which are necessary, it will always look a bit smooth unless the PA is REALLY good at their normals and modeling.

  Obviously, the only deciding factor, is whether you like it or not. If you don't find it necessary, I can't argue wish that. We all have different needs. =-)

  Whether it needs to be figure specific, I'm not sure. I tend to use HD morphs on a wide variety of characters. But yes, I do think it a touch moneygrabbing to not include them in the pro pack.  Especially given that Genesis 8 is essentially Genesis 3 and we are rebuying it all over again.

  I'm not convinced that DAZ including them in the Pro bundle is going to result in a significant increase in use by those that currently don't buy them because they feel they should be part of the bundle (which would require the person making them to do them immediately after finishing the base model instead of working on something else) and I don't see that they have enough utility to offset the loss of a useful item. But then, you and I disagree on what constitutes useful, I suppose.
