For Zev0..

Are you going to release/update the Toe Control for Genesis to work on Genesis 2?

    The individual toes on Genesis 2 are rigged unlike Genesis, the problem is they only have one joint/bone per toe instead of two.

    Hmmm... I guess they had to conserve somewhere.

    Thanks,

    would be nice to be able to: widen, shorten, lengthen the toes, for variation of characters!

    I read in one of Zev0's posts that he didn't have any plans to make a "Toe Control for Genesis 2" product, since the one for Genesis didn't sell as well as expected. If he changes his mind, tho', I would most likely buy it.

    I wonder if someone could create a morph to remedy this limitation? 8 out of 23 current suggestions on this forum are related to foot/toe options, that's a little more than a third; it appears to be the most wanted addition to G2! :-)

    Maybe it's time for G2.1, adding back G1 toe rigging or two joint/bone per toe instead of one (or at least for the first three toes)! Then someone could create a toe shaping morph (not just poses)! Or a foot shaping morph; I really liked M3 shapes for Genesis, mostly because I could use the distinctively different M3 foot shape. A dialable foot shape morph would be excellent, combining that with individual toe adjustments OMG!!!

    I made a foot morph on my Jarek M6 product:

    Very nice Male-M3dia! What are the features of the foot morphs? :-)

    It is a foot morph.

    I have this product for the standard Genesis, and relied on it quite heavily for my work, but since upgrading most of my characters to Genesis 2, I've found that many features I used before, like this, are no longer available.
    Is there a way to perhaps apply it to a Genesis 2 model?


    Also, are there any Genesis 2-compatible dials for making toenails longer? I can't find anything like that that works with G2.

    Those are morphs, so in theory you should be able to convert them to Genesis 2 using the GenX program.

    Genesis 2's toes are already rigged, no need for an add-on.

  • toe control..made me giggle

    The built-in bending / curling / spreading for toes is terrible, and plus that plugin let you change the length of each toe.

    I would love to make it again, however it was a very niche product and sales did not warrant the effort I put in unfortunately. So the chances of me making it again are non existant at this stage. I will rather focus on products that are in higher demand that sold better. Doing this full time is a factor. If this was a part time job or if I did this as a hobby, I would not mind creating it again because it was a fun project to do. Unfortunately fun don't pay the bills...I think with Genx you can get them over to G2 since they are just morphs that do not rely on rigging..

    That's too bad. Guess I'll just have to cope with not having it.

  • If you end up making the switch to Genesis 3 Powerage came out with a toe and feet control for them over at Rendo, its called Feet Work for G3F

  • Sorry to hear that. If you change your mind, you have a buyer in me! Cheers!
