Hey Todd71, I agree it would be great if one vendor could combine all these features. But if you want a character to walk and talk in your animation, isn't the advantage of Poser that it will save you all that step by step keyframing that you would have to do in C? I saw the part about mo-cap in C but unless they offer preset mo-cap files it would be a (huge) expense to do mo-cap independently, you'd have to rig up live actors to capture the data and then you have another mess to contend with. straker
