I have found P5 very stable on my AMD since the latest patch. Based on posts, I think that most people have had their copies stabilized, although there are still a few with problems. The materials room alone makes P5 worth the price you have before you. On the other hand, that will be offset by the use of Vue.... I would say, go for it. Where else can you get cloth for just $100? Even if you just use the cloth room as a plugin and render in another package, it's a heckuva buy. It is good to have more tools, although there is a learning curve. Maybe there will even be another patch some day....

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
