I'm leaning towards actually buying 2010.

I heard the rigging/skeleton is easeier to work now?
Course I get that from there sales so only non bias users could truely answer that, least for me. Version 6 was/is hard to manipulate.

No new charatctor animation tools. :-(

Thats a drag, one of the last areas I played in before my break form 3d (so long ago) was animation.

I was getting the hang of it but again it seemed like an area with lots of room for improvement.

 

Thanks for all the replies.
