Quoll has a point for animators. But I stand by what I said for stills. We'd lose most of our special display modes (which I use, btw). I can use full tracking while posing..I have no speed loss there. The programs I use a lot that have OpenGL are Bryce and Vue. In both I've gone back to wireframe. It's faster and less prone to (dare I say) crashing. Vue's slows down the entire interface for me. Bryce's works 99% of the time, it's that 1% I'm afraid of. I find wireframe (with the resolution higher than default) much easier to work with in Bryce. In Vue I'm not so lucky and have a hard time setting up scenes without it. Bryce was built so that OpenGL is an option. Vue was built expecting us to be able to use it. Your video card and drivers are going to be of utmost importance. With Poser now it works with everything (except for a few refresh problems here and there). What's the reaction going to be if you have to buy a new video card just to USE poser? People with Lightwave, Maya, Max, et al, are very conscious of what video card they have/get. The rest of the world that uses Poser is not. And most of all the switch will be painful, as in buggy. It aint going to be easy to completely redo their system from scratch. And I doubt it would ever be tested on more than a handful of systems. DAZ studio is built from the ground up to make use of it and the public testing will flush out most of the problems. A different ballgame. That's my take anyway. Arggghhhh. Can't wait 'til my new mouse gets here.
