Quote - tsk tsk tsk -- such pessimism on display.

It's not pessimism, it's realism.  Spend some time trying to rework Poser materials setups in a different (usually more powerful) app.  There are many situations that simply do not have a 1:1 equivalent and cannot be duplicated at all, whether by automation or by hand.  I remain skeptical as well about how well rigging will export from Poser into other apps.

Looks to me like the significant changes here are content export (which I've already wasted huge amounts of money on, would have been nice if that junk had been built into Poser 7) and "64-bit rendering" - simply a memory management improvement as far as I can see, no major feature being added there.  Maybe they'll do a less bone-headed division of labor for multi-threaded rendering too, we'll see.

Xenophonz there's about a dozen bubbly posts from you defending EF.  They're big kids now, they don't need a champion.
