"but this iteration of Poser Pro will stick pretty closely to the Poser 7 look and feel (flaws and all.) It's good to hear from people who are actually using Poser 'out in the field' though, so we'll know what areas to concentrate on!"there is more to conversation but that remains private.
So Mr Xenophonz, next time you feel the need to blatantly accuse me of being a rumour monger or a liar just keep your trap shut.
Now you can choose not believe me: and I can choose not to listen to you.
Show me where I accused you of "being a liar", and I'll buy into what you are saying here. I most definitely did not make such an accusation -- I asked for proof from you to back up your assertion that the intent was to throw something out there to grab some quick cash. You still haven't established that as being a fact. The quote that you've given sounds like a snippet from a standard customer support e-mail message. It certainly doesn't speak to a corporate intent, devious or otherwise. Frankly, I'd be surprised if Poser Pro did not stick fairly closely to P7's current interface (flaws and all). As much as some people holler about it's drawbacks -- just wait for the hollering that would follow if the interface were to be radically changed into something unfamiliar to the user base overnight.
When you choose to offer actual, solid, proof that it's SM's corporate intent to essentially just slap something together & shove it out the door for the purpose of obtaining some quick cash, then I'll choose to listen to you. Until then: it remains nothing more than a rumor.
Quote - I don't speak ill of SM, its just they got handed a bit of a lemon from EF and they are making the best of things. They knew that the bodystudio plugin (poser fusion) was very much a lemon product, and have abandoned that line of development (which shows how smart they are). I think poser is in better hands now, and I don't want to see it die. But SM have a tough battle ahead of them convincing people to buy.
As for the Body Studio issues -- that part we have no argument over. If SM is as smart as you say that they are -- then we can expect to look forward to good things, eh?
