BrokeAss Games Character Pack (early adopter) owners

Hello,
I am posting here hoping to reach a couple of our character pack owners for testing assistance with the impending 1.0 release of our male. Formerly called Genesis Character packs, they are releasing under the new name: BAG_ACK! (catchy, I know: BrokeAss Games - Advanced Character Kit).
We have a new store site (integrated into our SMF forums), but the accounts have yet to be transferred over from our previous store. Otherwise, I would be able to hit you all at once with a newsletter. At release, we will make sure all existing owners have access to the new download.
We have a release candidate build of the male and would appreciate some additional EA owners to contact us to road-test and give feedback on the new build. If you are available for testing and feedback in the next couple of days, please contact me at:
jon /at\ brokeassgames [dot] com
Please register on our community forums and include you membername, so I can add you to the proper group for access to the downloads. Owners that do not participate will be contacted later and have a member name assigned.
thanks alot,
Jondo

I think I have a basic feature list somewhere...
5 themed Prebuilt Example Characters
Nude textured base human bodies (4 different races/skins per gender) with LODs
Approx. 30 clothing items 'stacked' on the player build with LODs
BVH mocap based skeleton with full Poser compatibility (you get the chars as Poser Source too)
BVH library cross-compatibility (male, female and future bipedal releases will share animations)
Some Hairstyle variations will be included with the packs
Source to activate mesh hiding in TGE
More Documentation
All stock TGE animations plus extras . Over 80 total.
(these are unique anims, but setup pretty close to how stock Torque does it)
Compatible with Opti-trak home motion capture
Compatible with Mr. Bones animations
Full Source Art in MS3D/Fragmotion/Poser/Photoshop
I know there's more... we'll post some more official info soon.
cheers,
Jon

Not too late actually, the EA build is still up on out site and will be until 1.0 release is finalized. Just keep in mind the EA pack in is far what you see here. We've worked on the pack for over a year (on and off) since EA was launched. But don't worry EA purchasers will get the upgrade free once we get it out.
You can see more Here.

I know I sound a bit keen here, I wasn't expecting the upgrade to be out so quickly. I didn't want to bother installing the old pack if the new one is now available - that's all.
thanks.

@Jondo - I purchased the Human Male Genesis Character pack last week on the strength of this post to get in on the Early Adopters. I noticed on the BrokeAss website today that the Male Advanced Character Kit is now out. Just wonder about how I go about getting the upgrade.I know I sound a bit keen here, I wasn't expecting the upgrade to be out so quickly. I didn't want to bother installing the old pack if the new one is now available - that's all.
thanks.
