“In the DAZ tradition of giving its customers high quality 3D software at fantastic values, we are now offering the electronic download version (ESD) of Hexagon 2 at the DAZ webstore for the nominal price of US$1.99 for new and current members of the DAZ Platinum Club. This special offer for Hexagon 2 ends May 31, 2006 (23:59:59 EDT), after which the software will be available at the normal retail price of US$269 for the full version or US$119 for the upgrade from Hexagon”

Geez! This sounds terribly desperate. Would like to know, how many here have actually tried this product and what in your mind, sets it different from anything else in the market say from UVMapper? Of course, those that have already been taken into the so called “Platinum Membership” will plead rave reviews. But does anyone else really believe that this package is worth $269 USD in the open market? I’ve tried all sorts of packages does this offer any real changes? UVMapper is $30, and has been out a lot longer, would I fare better? I certainly wouldn’t pay $269 for any UV mapping package.

I can now actually see Daz incorporating this new absorption into the creation of the new Bryce 6 package. Bryce, with it’s own 3D modeling package. Hummmm, being a Bryce aficionado since it came into the PC world, they have a lot to fix. Adding a 3D modeling module is not, in the least sufficient for me, I've seen far better advancements. Depends on the final price.
