I'm very disapointed with how slow and "crashy" Poser 8 is. Poser Pro NEVER EVER crashed on me, and it was so much faster than P8...
My problems with Poser 8 that were not a problem in Poser Pro:
2) I play World of Warcraft on this PC and I get 60 FPS everywhere, and I find it amazing that my preview window on Poser 8 gets 0.5 FPS, even if I set it to display only the wireframe.
3) I have a Nvidia GeForce 9800GX2, 1GB of VRAM, 4GB of system RAM, and a Q6600 CPU (quad core). I've updated my video drivers to the latest, and still if I turn on OpenGL preview rendering on my Poser it will crash after a couple minutes of use.
4) Even without OpenGL, if I turn on the highest form of preview rendering (shaded/textured), P8 will crash after a couple of minutes.
5) Even without OpenGL and shared/textured preview rendering, P8 will crash every hour of use in average. Sometimes when canceling a rendering, sometimes when switching objects, sometimes when just skipping frames.
