Personally I don't see the need for doing so. I'm in a niche market and for that market stuff even needs to be working on old versions like Poser 6. Also V3 & V4 and their male counterparts are still very popular, so no changes there either. The newest figures like Dawn simply pass by the newest technology and the SM figures are ugly as ever, except for Miki perhaps.

 

I see it from a marketing/business perspective. 

What's the point in adding all this new tech to the software when none of the content utilizes the tech?

That's like buying a brand new sports car and keeping it parked in the garage. What's the point?

The competition builds software that allows them to get more out of the content, and then builds content to utilize those new features. 

Competitor forums are much more active than the Poser forums here or at RDNA, and their moderators have always ruled with iron fists. So what does that say? 

But whatever. I'm not interested in debating the issue. I just stated how I see it.
