Not buying Poser 7, not spending $499 when it doesn't support Lightwave. not paying $499 for COLLADA export when Daz Studio has is for free if needed. I don't use Daz Studio, but if I HAD to get something in COLLADA well there is a free solution for poser content.
I export out of poser as OBJ and import into Lightwave, it's free and works. No auto rigging, animation hosting has proven it's self yet to me. Poser4Pro Pack was okay for the time and I still have it around just in case.
Hosting has major limitations like collision detection for one.
Just seems rather silly to me so far and way to expensive for what is there in that chart.
doesn't matter, from what I know EF does what EF wants not what it's users want.
Oh and COLLADA for lightwave is near non existant. Newtek said "working on it" for lightwave 9.X cycle but no known date.
