As someone who has no axe to grind with either Daz or Poser it is nice to see a thread where the aim appears to be an informed debate.
I owe a lot to Daz as it was that free program that got me hooked on 3D so many years ago and thus has given me a lot of pleasure over a number of years. I used to buy a great deal from the Daz store and I do wish everyone there, every success.
There is of course an 'however' coming up, so however, I now find that I buy very little at Daz3D for example, so far this month I have spent $164 at Rendo and $4.29 at Daz3D. That has been the pattern for the last year or so, and I am no longer a PC member at Daz but I am a Prime member at Rendo.
So my question is 'Are there any plans to change the PC range at Daz3D'. I do understand that the products offered at $1.99 and other offers are good value but I do think the PC content has become stale, it maybe great for new users but there appears to be little of interest for the longer term hobbist.
Finally I love V4 and continue to use her on an almost daily basis. I was initially interested in Genesis but I have to say I have become sick to death of the whole sorry buisness that now do not look at any thread or product that includes Genesis or V5. I do not blame Poser or Daz for that, but I am saddened by the way the certain members of the community have responded. From a very personal point of view I am less interested in V5 working in Poser and more interested in an improved V4 but until I see something that improves on what I can do with my present V4 I will stick with what I know, and love.
I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 - Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU . The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
