My question would be in regard to poser are there less requirements and such when purchasing things and is the "applyability" more fluid with poser than DAZ
Yes, the systems are pretty close. Both applications, in their current versions, have various kinds of conversion tool that can help with using content fro one figure on another, though they cover different aspects to different degrees (Poser, for example, doesn't have any built in option for swapping the mapping so that you can use textures from figure 1 on figure 2; DS does offer alternative UV sets that allow some swapping, with additional options available in the store). However the distinction between settings and content is common to both - whether you find the DS system, for native formats, of having the settings in a sub-folder of the folder with the models or the Poser system of splitting the content across different libraries is going to be a matter of taste, and perhaps of how the other software you use handles similar issues.
Thats good to know, the wisdom I am getting here is that DAZ is free and worth a push or two to see if I can actually get it to work for me and feel comfortable with it.
Thanks for the help!
