Why exactly don't you like the new version? I mean, I'm a loyal Poser user and while I have DS3A, there are a few things that have kept me from using it. I'm just curious to see if others have the same reasons ;). If we could do that without having a major Daz-bashing contest, that would be awesome...lol.

FWIW, the reason I use Poser rather than DS is because of 1: The DS plugin structure. I just don't like it. It does work well for some programs like Vue, but for core functionality (which I consider to be advanced shaders and dynamic cloth for example) I don't want it coming from 3rd parties where the plugin could either be broken with a core program update or a vendor who is here today and gone tomorrow. 2: As nuts as Poser's material room makes me, a lot of it still makes some sense. The DS materials are incomprehensible.

Those are my biggest two. I'm not too keen on the DS interface, but I can muddle my way thru it and I'm sure in time I'd get used to it, but the other stuff bugs me enough that I won't even stick with it that long ;).
