Thinking of upgrading from Poser pro 2010 to pro 2012. It it worth the $200? What are the key upgrade benefits? The thing that started me thinking about an upgrade is Blackhearted's GNDA, which appears to be quite awesome (but unfortunately has no clothes) but I don't know that GNDA by herself is worth the $200 upgrade price. I am thrilled with the fast render times in 2010. If the rendering and lighting is significantly improved in 2012 then it would probably be worth it. Are there any painful learning curve issues with 2012?

Lance - perhaps you missed the thousands of demonstrations of PP2012 superiority?

It's totally superior if you're dealing with humans.

Or anything shiny with a soft finish.

Blackhearted's GNDA is not included with PoserPro 2012: she's based on Alyson 2 and you can buy her for $20.

cspear - You need to buy P9 or PP 2012 in order to have any point in buying GNDA for $20.

Lance doesn't think GNDA comes with Poser.

SSS is worth the price of admission alone - its the biggest leap forward in poser realism since raytracing.

(ok, IDL was also a huge leap)

Between SSS and weight-mapping, Poser Pro 2012 is more than worth the upgrade price, IMO.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.

Thanks for your comments, just got back in town. I'm off to buy Poser Pro 2012.
