Welcome to Vue! 

Actually, the best version is Vue 5 Infinite - and the most expensive. There is a feature-by-feature comparison on e-on's web site:

Not all versions support Poser.

 There are a few tricks to get the most out of Poser in Vue. You might want to search the forums, the backroom here, Cornucopia 3D (e-on's official user site, where Wabe does extreme help, along with his friends. We know Wabe is secretly a large group - because no single person can do that much) and the registered user's forum on e-on's main site (once you are registered). I also have a growing directory of Vue tutorials and some of my own.

Mostly:

  1. What wabe pointed out above.
  2. PZ3 can have huge textures. Saves memory and problems if you save your imported Poser figures into native Vue .VOB format AFTER you are sure they look right - since this will break the link back and forth to Poser.
  3. Because of how Poser worked in the past, they still do some weird things with materials, like setting textures that would not normally have reflectivity to 100% reflectivity, so they come out white in Vue . So you often need to make a few little edits to some Poser mateials in Vue.
