"It's a bunch of crap to see Poser 4 stuff suddenly disappear practically overnight and get replaced with stuff you can't even use because it uses "nodes" or some such garbage. Poser 4 can do just as much image wise as Poser 5 or 6 - sometimes better - it's just a marketing ploy to get you to keep having to buy all new crap." Wow. Advancing features in a program is just a marketing ploy? I don't see what all the resentment is for a software application to move on and modify it's features. P4 stuff isn't obsolete, it's still around strong as ever... just look at DAZ. Almost all their "crap" is P4-oriented, much to my dismay. Most P4 items run fine in P5/P6. You can't expect new items made for more advanced features to be backwards compatible with an outdated software. For instance, I can't load my 3dsmax 7 scenes in 3ds 3. I would never expect to. I certainly can't expect content creators for any program to never progress either, just because I might want to continue to use a 5 year old application.
