Quote - Got another question..... will there be a Poser 2 Pro Base version also? I'm using Poser Pro Base and have no interest in the regular version, Base is enough for me.
My previous questions still haven't been answered either, I'm still confused about the sidegrade path and when you get what discount.
Hi aeilkema!
I've never had a conversation with SM about two versions of Pro so can't help with that.
The discount is simple. I don't know the upgrade price to Pro, but whatever it is, that's what you'll pay in the end no matter what. You can just wait for Pro and pay that price, or you can pay part of it ($130) now to get Poser 8, then pay the rest to get Pro 2010. You will pay the same price either way.
In addition, if you buy Poser 8 now and already have Poser Pro, you will be invited to participate in Pro 2010 beta. That means you'll get to use it months before it is released, and be able to influence its implementation with your feedback. Being in the Beta program is an option - it is not necessary to participate in order to get the double upgrade discount.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
