And this is why new figures like Dawn will struggle to take off. Because people preffer to stay with old versions of Poser. Imagined everybody had a version that supported WM, and what a difference the sales numbers would be for new figure content support because more people have access to it. But like you said, some prefer old versions of Poser, because they are still catered for, meaning less will bother to try new WM figures, meaning they have an even smaller chance of survival. This to me causes a bigger split than the one between SM and DAZ. The Poser market is too fragmented. DAZ solved that issue by making DS free, insuring the bulk of users are on the same version, meaning content developers don't have to worry with ancient support because most users are all trying out the new and shiny. And those who do complain are the vocal minority, and have no real bearing on sales on the larger scale of things.
