I agree with you, Khory.  On all of the stated issues.  There are so many poser products I've wanted, but with no support in Studio-I haven't bought.  Or, that they just don't WORK in Studio.  Period.

Even as tempted as I may be with the advanced version, I'm saving my money.  I want to branch into the professional field of 3D; none of the companies I am interested in support nor tolerate anything from Poser or Studio.  I want to start working on Autodesk apps; time to save my pennies.  :)

Considering my income-it may be a decade before that happens.  lol
