Items that no longer work

It is quite sad for me to see items that I used to use in Studio that no longer work. Items like Light Dome Pro, Studio Light Pro, pwSurface and Surface mask creator. Time marches on. Sigh.

Most of the pw's have been updated....
Poseworks updated many of their shaders to work in DAZ Studio 3 and 4. PWsurface used scripts that couldn't be updated but it was replaced with PWSurface2 which will work in DAZ Studio 4+. Sadly, however, PWSketch was never updated. I also miss the old Eiler shaders which used reworked Bryce materials. Also, although there is now 'Send in the Clones' I miss Replicate. I was simple and quick to use.
Light Dome Pro and Studio Light Pro were just basic light sets and, although I haven't tried them, it was my understanding that they woul still work. Light Dome Pro 2, however , used scripts that no longer work. Light Dome Pro-R replaced it.

LDP and SLP work in DS4.6, LDP2 does not.
Seems I already bought pwSurface2. Guess I should install it.
LDP 2 I used quite a bit until Reality came along. LDP R is more a Photoshop bridge. Doesn't help me any.
Light Dome Pro-R didn't really replace LDP2. It's a different product with a similar name from the same vendor. I've given up on any hope of Dreamlight's plugins ever being upgraded... he promised an update to Animated Textures in "a few days" in August of last year and more recently there were rumblings about an update to MovieMaker that still hasn't happened.
