The new web page is horrible to navigate. My most recent frustration is that I can't track the prescription I have ordered. The only people at Human who give me accurate information are the pharacists. Any other information is not trust worthy. For instance the drug prices are absurd and no where near accurate. And now this survey is asking for proof a purchase before it will send. Where do I find that proof in a form that will fit in their damned box?

I'm an artist and photographer. I was a paying member for a couple of years and then dropped out of photographing models for a couple years. I'm getting back into it and attempted to rejoin OMP. The single thing that stopped me was their search engine. They changed how to filter data and what's worse, you can't limit the distance from the models to the photographer. Traveling now with COVID makes this shortcoming even worse than it was before. Having to sift through dozens of resumes to find ones that are local is a pain, so I didn't go back on the site.

I've been working in 2 D since Corel's first version came out. This is my first 3D program and it sucks. Newest version, 4.12 64 bit. For starters, the tutorials that come loaded with it were made with the beta version and the screens are completely different, so nearly impossible to figure out unless one has experience with older version, but still, nothing is in the same place. Most of the YouTube tutorials are made with old versions too.
Worst problem: the renders do not look anything like the working version which you may spend days posing, applying skin texture, makeup, eyes, and body morphs. The lighting will not even approximately resemble what you've created. DAZ forum gurus admit that it will only be an approximation and only good for posing. Well, what the hell is the point then? Do my 2D renders and prints look like what I've created on the program? You bet they do and have since the very first version. Same with Photoshop though I'm far from expert on that program.
One eye morph will overlay the first and the combination will look like crap. Add a morph expression and it changes other facial morphs you've added.
This program is marginally good for someone who wants to purchase the morphed character, clothes, and backgrounds and just pose the character. In other words, a toddler's program for someone who wants to play with dolls.
Want help from the company? Don't count on anything at all. If it comes at all, it will be days or weeks after you ask for it. DAZ forum members who will respond to you have been using this for years and have been through several generations of it. Perhaps the early versions were easier to figure out.
The photos are of the latest glitch in renders after using the same settings for half a dozen decent renders that I could correct in Corel. This one is useless.
