I tried Hexagon on more than one occasion but spent more time trying to keep it working than I did learning.  I even tried using it when I first started buying the Digital Tailor Tutorials from Fugazi1968 but Hexagon was a pain.  Having seen how it worked in the tutorials I purchased a copy of Silo and found it easy to work with.  The only complaint I had at the time is it would not recognise my Space Navigator 3d mouse, since then I have found a driver for that also. 

 

I have learnt a great deal from many of the tutorials, skills I would not have learnt without Digital Tailor and Silo.  Having recently retired I intend doing a great deal more with Silo as it is fun to use.  I have uninstalled Hexagon as I cannot see me ever wanting to use it again.

 

 

 

 

 

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.
