I am learning a lot from this thread.

Even thou Poser does not support Vector Displacement Maps yet.
If your Poser Mesh had a Vector Displacement Map and you sent it to C4D ,LW ,Maya ,Max,
would the Vector Displacement Map work in C4D ,LW ,Maya ,Max, ?

PoserFusion 2012 SR2 List C4D ,LW ,Maya ,Max
So I was thinking thay all where = with Poser ,
after Arhena post I don't think so.

Paloth ,now when did I say anything about me having talent
,luckly zBrush can even make me look good.

Ya AutoDesk doesn't seem to say a lot about Max n Characters.
But the only charaters at turbo as good as Vicky are for Max.
But it Seems like Maya is more for Characters.
and Max is a all pourpose App and you buy the plugs to customize Max to your needs.
or if your in to architecture you get Max Design.
Don't want to spend a lot on plugs but don't know if Maya has every thing you need.

Learning curve on yout first CGI app is high,
After that just got to learn where the buttons are.
Thay all have polygones ,Rigs ,UV's ,Textue ect ect.
