Quote - Couldn't edit my last post but I wanted to add this. By keeping old support, you give no reason for users to upgrade or change. Sometimes you have to give them a push in order to keep the market up to date. If that means forcing out the old support for the new, then so be it. If not, the market will not progress at all. There are a lot more new users than old, and its a fact that new users tend to spend more money on content. And new users aren't going to buy P4, they are going to start out with a more recent version of Poser. P4 support? Come on....Thats like me releasing a new fancy game that must have dos compatability. People have no issues upgrading their phones etc, so why must old support for this market be given special treatment? It is part of the problem, not the solution.

Because...if this happens you will hear the weeping and gnashing of teeth like has never happened in the universe. LOL.

I've suggested this before at least the last two versions of Poser and was ultimately shot down because people were upset at not being able to use their 13 year old content (which they almost never do anyway, but that's another argument) LOL.

One of the main gripes is "Urgh! I've gotta buy a whole suite of content all over again!" Like you said...funny how people won't even give that a thought when it comes to phones, computers, tvs, etc....but moan that Poser stuff is overpriced (almost like they're entitled to low prices). It's always been  my way that if I can't afford something I'll do without it or find a way to pay for it. Been doing that since Vicky version 1 ;).

A lot of folks aren't gonna like what I've just said, but it's how I've felt for years. Time marches on and progress is progress. I'll willingly trade my old, tired content for a little progress ;).

Having said that, I'd rather have my progress in Poser because that's what I know and I'm too old to be completely relearning new software at this point ;).
