Personally, I wish it was like it use to be in that Poser upgraded Poser Program structure, and DAZ made the models. DAZ Studio 3 is a great Program. But it's like doing Brain surgery with Boxing Gloves on.

They have so many tools, which is great in one since. but it is a nightmare to pull tools onto the screen. The pop into areas without wanting them to go there.  Poser, estecially Poser Pro 2010 I can work with no effort fast, knowing that the tools don't dictate to me, I dictate to the Tools.

And as far as the People that come with Poser. I like the Poser 4 figures better to work with than the figures from Poser 6 on. I can't get their clothes to work correctly on those charactures, where as. DAZ's charactures I have no problem with 85% of all the clothes made by the many talented people I by from.

The best features that DAZ has in there DAZ Studio, is AniMate. but even that has bugs, everything I use in DAZ seams to be more time getting use to animating with Animate and Importing it into Poser so I can clean it up with confidect. There is nothing like making an Animation in Animate, then half way through. the animation disapears, just because you ad another characture an put a characture in the scene.  This doesn't happen every time. but when you spend 20 minutes trying to tweek things. Then lose it is a big waist of time. When there is a mistake, I like it to be mine. That away I can learn what it is and correct it or learn what it takes to correct it.

I know that DAZ and Poser are Taking about trying to keep the charactures to be compatable from a reliable source. But that doen't mean much, if the final results don't end up that way.

Yep, all I want is great animating tools, People an dynamic clothing be faster, and easer to work with. same with the Hair. People with great rigging where arms, and legs bend. the body parts look more natural. Also, like the Caractures shown on the first thread to DAZ on V5. that has the capabilities of those and other charactures shown in their pop up. And of course, For only $500. dollars.  Woops! I must have dosed off while my finger kept typing in my last Paragraph.  Time to go to bed.
