For 35,000 (or something like that) other people it works perfectly.

While it is perfectly true that it isn't working for you, this kind of post really bugs me.

The program is well worth whatever it is worth. If you are not a professional, and/or it doesn't work for you, then it isn't worth hundreds of dollars. If you are a professional and it works (which it does for 99.9999% of people who own it) then it is worth even $1000 or more.

I'm not a pro, but Poser Pro 2010 saves me at least 10 hours a week versus Poser 7 or any other previous Poser. It saves me hobby time, which I consider valuable. That's worth about $25,000 per year to me. Poser Pro 2010 is cheaper than it should be, IMO. Again this is my hobby time value. If we were talking about my professional time, it would be worth waaaaaay more.

I am not a pro graphic artist, but I work with several. If I were to decide to be a pro graphic artist, I think Poser Pro would be worth at least 50 times what it costs today even to use for only one year. We pay graphic artists about $60,000 to $80,000 per year. They do not use Poser, because they don't know how. If they used it, they could double their incomes. They simply don't know how to use it.

I could easily make $160,000 per year using Poser Pro.

As to how to fix it, I have a suggestion, but not a good one. Send your computer to me or to SM. I bet that they or I could find the problem.


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)
