I'm thinking SM makes a joke !! :( User of poser since release 5, I have tested daz studio one year ago.... Before thinking of a new release with a "commercial" argument around a new render, many things must have to be corrected in Poser... Rendering is now well assumed by plug in like reality, octane etc... But may be thinking of other more important features means development time and so money for SM... SM was supplying new version each year and, each time, with minor improvment...Need cash flow ? What about : GUI is very old now No real bridge in real time (powerfusion is older) like Goz between Zbrush and Daz or for cinema4D etc... No compatibility with new Daz character (G3F is superb !) Shame to manage the library in poser. I can add (read comments on poser blog) many other points told by many users who, like me, are now definitively disappointed by the way choosen by SM to try to make money on a soft now depreciated. SM has quite good arguments for poser : dynamic clothes, extended morphing features against DAZ...But what else now ? Try to give your customers some innovation...or die. Sorry without me.
