Hi all,

I'm posting here because it's a little more tolerant than the Daz forum...

Firstly, the Daz "premier" thing is worrying me : Is it a little step to a rental scheme ? 200 USD a year is quite a lot for my limited income.

Then G9 is an absolute memory hog, and it seems they were not prepared for Nividia 5 series, Not to speak of the price of an out of stock 5090. 

Opening a relatively simple scene takes several minutes, and closing the program is also extremely slow. I regularly have crashes, I suppose that even the official releases are semi-beta.

All in all, it's quite a bunch of money and time for a hobbyist use.

So I'm looking for the same type of software : I'm very sorry to say that Poser is aging (I have P13), Blender has a too steep learning curve for my aging brain, Cinema 4D seems more user-friendly but way out of my financial reach.

Any suggestion ?

Thanks
