Quote - For many years Gen3 and Gen4 was compatible with both Daz Studio and Poser. That was because of Daz, that did all the work. Poser didn't seem to care. Now the roles are turned around, now it is Poser that has to adjust. Either by embracing Genesis (that was offered for free as I understand) or by "Dawnifying" the figures. I can understand their disappointment, but capitalism and free market have created all the welfare in the world. Nobody said it was perfect. Any other third to make it has no more chance to succeed than the proverbial snowball.

It's not the content, it's the software. Poser doesn't have to do anything. They don't make or lose any money off of Genesis or Dawn. It's the users who have to decide what they want to do, support Genesis, support Dawn, or use another figure. I don't have anything against Dawn. I  don't use Genesis, even though Joe Public has shown me a way to get it into Poser without having to open Studio, for the same reason I don't use Dawn. Roxie's more fun for me to use. And that's what I'm using Poser for... to have fun.
