LOL must be the "season"
Three Weeks Ago I was literally suffering from sleep depravation
Caused by an Obsessive combination of constant animating in poser for this Film project.
personal Modeling + physics Simulations and constantly visiting the free online material Libraries for Maxwell and Vray and rendering scenes in both engines via their Connection to Maxon Cinema4D R11 Studio.
I even learned how to animate/lipsynch figures in Anime studio Pro7
As a result I created some really nice new renders for my Professional gallery over at Coroflot.com.
I modeled and shared a free morphing sea creature prop and created really cool torture wagon model for poser and became a more skilled modeler in general especially using splines from illustrator
I believe I have reached the absolute theoretical Limit of what the poser physics plugin can/cant do.
All of the time spent in C4D's graph editor animating My cameras for this Film GIG has made me painfully realize how badly posers animation tools have been IGNORED by it various owners.
To answer the OP more directly, I have always had a Love /Hate relationship with poser since version2.
I utterly DESPISE its render engine and never, NEVER used it in final production of anything.
I HATE poser's and ALL "node based" Material systems.
I am actually ,Frankly pleased that the new DAZ genesis Figure is not compatible with poser because its time for the parent company of poser to get serious about making some native poser figures that are actually useful or give /sell the program to someone who will.
I could rant on ..but right now I open C4D or poser and stare at the empty scene for 30 seconds ..close the program
and Start re-watching seasons 1& 2 of "Gundam 00" in HD.
Cheers
