the 10 what?
Each prof (i think) asked 10 questions to the devs like 6 weeks ago and TH has only given 10 answers back to like 3 of them(maybe4 can't remember exactly, but it was a minority). First he said it was because he was helping out on Publish 6 and now it is what? I understand things are busy in dev land but 6 weeks without a single word? Unless i missed all theother ones, in that case please point me to them.

Thunderheart is answering the ten questions on his own time. He did the first three (including this one)on a Sunday afternoon before going off to a Superbowl party. His initial plan was to only do them for themore neglected professions, but eventually he agreed to do them for all professions, with the caveat that it would take him a long, long time to answer them, given that he would be doing them on weekends, and that he would do them in the order they were received.
This info was posted by one of the correspondents recently with TH's blessing, so I figured I would share it here since we are getting some off topic questions about other professions' top ten answers...

Just to add something to the hip/butt issue, I made a simple page with pictures to illustrate the problem. It's brief and to-the-point.
I don't know if you remember TH, but back before testing started, when the image of the females was first published, I posted a thread containing reactions from women to the look of the SWG females. None of the responses were "I don't really care how my character would look." In fact, quite the opposite.

Hip/rump adjustments I would put on the bottom of the list because out of all the requests, those are the most difficult to notice.
Actually, I'd put this at the top of the list. For females, in character creation you can bump up the Weight bar and the butt, bust, thighs, and other aspects of the body extend while the tummy stays mostly flat, up to a point. Then the tummy starts to pooch out along with everything else.
But when editing weight using ID skills, the tummy extends along with everything else. It's impossible to look fit and womanly at the same time. If you don't want a tummy, then you have to keep the weight bar down to about 20% or less. Unfortunately this makes the hips slim too. All females end up looking like they need to do some situps badly, or like little girls with big knockers.
Yeah, for females who wear full composite and do little more than battle, it's probably nothing they've ever even thought about. But I know about half a dozen girls who are supremely frustrated by it, because they are entertainers or fashion-minded, and they want to look like a woman who knows how to take care of herself. I know one woman who restarted her character because someone altered her weight and she lost all her curves.
