Hold on to your hats for a second before starting the next Poser / DS race.

This take over is going to take time, lots of time, and repair work, lots and lots of repair work.

Some time ago, SM fired the complete Poser team. We all know that.

The Poser development moved to a team in Portugal. We all know that.

Then Poser was recovered from Portugal.

And now Poser is sold to this house.

We have no clue what all different developers, teams and coders and managers did.

All I know is that up to and including today, 3 completely different teams pulled all their hairs and chewed all their nails to try to get a fix for the Masterbug.

Let's calmly state that a "next" version, or a next Poser/DS policy is probably the least of their worries.

What worries us even harder is all the licencing that has to come over. Some you all know about, some you guys don't know about.

The hair room, the cloth room, the face room are the "knowns" . So let's keep it at that.

For the future? As I stated some posts ago, it all depends if Bondware wants a FAST or long term return on their investment.

PS; For those that don't know ; the public part of the Masterbug is in my Video 4 on my YouTube channel. Very brief : Poser splitting rigged obj files internally and adding double vertex at all welds. All the rest is history.

The impact of this is so deep and touches each and every function in Poser. From group editor through hair room, vertically and horizontally, passing through the setup and fitting room. Each function is affected and the fix requires a TON of internal knowledge.
