My desires for a new interface or not have nothing at all to do with pose developement.. they do whatever they want to, and I just bust whatever I can, and send in bug reports, and bug them for new features or tweaks I'd like to see personally.
They don't ask testers if they would like things network rendering, collada support, ect. Testers are to take what they do, and see if it actually does what it's supposed to do, and to see if any legacy features become busted along the way.
And the interface works fine for my needs. I wasn't overly thrilled with the zbrush interface either, but again, now that I've learned it, it again works for my needs.
And I don't create poser plugin stuff... but I do want all the nifty plugin things out there to work, especially if they are in my workflow.
Quite a number of my feature requests have been built into poser over the years, and that's my main incentive to be a tster.. to get things not only fixed as best as possible, but also to streamline workflow, and make poser developement as fast as possible within the app itself.
Plus I'm also practical when it comes to developement. Budgets allow only so many man hours of developement work for any company, and you have to set realistic goals.
I've been a beta tester for quite a few companies, utilities, plugins and the like. And I also gave them hell when I saw the low res supplied figures, since they already have so much legacy content, there really wasn't a need for them at all.
Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
