That's just it. I don't really see anything that justifies a $199 pricetag for an upgrade. Lets face it, if I render my Poser posed and textured and set up stuff in 3D Max or Maya... then there's just something wrong with that picture. (IMHO)

Basically, all the Collada stuff... err... why not just yank the obj into whatever package you use? (I don't, so I don't know how/why people would need the cross-usablity.)
P7 doesn't crash for me either (on Vista Home Premium) btw but my ATI card has a problem with it's openGL so I use SReed.

But yeah, pjz, that's just it. I don't see anything that will benefit me, as such. Hence I'm not buying. As I said, if they had actually worked on the Lighting model and those f**$&£g idiotic shadow cams, then I would have grabbed it without batting an eyelash. As it is? No thanks. Same old, same old. With the emphasis on OLD...
