Quote - That's not Anything Grows or they have advanced it into something new and slid it into C6. Did you look at the hair animation? Poser can't do that.

My apologies... I was a bit hurried before I could finish the post (long story :) ). I correlated it too quickly to think it through. It is one hell of an improvement, though. if the dynamic cloth in DS turns out like I think it will (they've been working on this for awhile), and it translates to Carrara, then yeah... Poser will wither awful fast. The only thing that either group lacks is marketing outside the existing 3D/CG community. For instance, a Linux port of D|S could easily be distributed with Ubuntu, and Canonical (Ubuntu's company) would do all the work of promotion and distribution. I know RedHat wouldn't do it in their default Fedora Core distro (RH doesn't distribute proprietary source stuff that they themselves didn't build, IIRC). I did give this whole thing some thought... and I'm thinking Carrara Pro is prolly the biggest reason for the whole Poser Pro thingy. It does bring up a question, though - potential conflict/confusion with "PoserPros". /P
