I don't know. I have said that repeatedly. People are speculating like mad, based on pure gossip.

I can tell you I have never seen Genesis in person.

I have never seen Poser 9 in person.

I have seen some beta test code for a future version of Poser with some cool new features, many of which have nothing to do with rigging. See the difference? I don't have Poser 9 - I don't know what is going to be in Poser 9.

Even SM isn't certain of what is or isn't going to be in Poser 9. If they were truly certain, they would be fine with me telling you what I see. They're not. All of us who have preview/beta versions of some new features are under a Non Disclosure Agreement, or NDA.

Stop asking, and stop speculating, please.

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)
