Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 28 11:20 am)
It depends on the scenes you create, how often you use Poser and how much memory you have but for me the move to 64bit would be worth the cost on it's own. I use Poser 2014, now I can use all the memory I have not just 2gig and I have never regretted the move.
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.
Yeah, I'm not certain if it is worth it either, but yesterday I ordered it...a $100 upgrade from my PP2010 (plus tax and shipping for the physical verrsion). I figure it will never be cheaper than this, and I know--despite reluctence to decipher all the new features--it will eventually earn its way and I will wonder how I ever got along without it....
And I definitely appreciate the Pro version with its 64 bit processing.

Even without touching all the new features, you'll be seeing a definite improvement in IDL calculation and rendering speed.
I know I did when I upgraded from PP2010.

If you're joking that's just cruel, but if you're being sarcastic, that's even worse.
pp12 is 64-bit. not feeling motivated by pp14.
i'm waiting to see what pp15 has to offer.
maybe it will have true curves for dynamic hair.
a full size palette for joint editting.

I'm still mulling. I have PP2012 and haven't been Posering much lately. But this is easily the cheapest it's been (in fact, most of the sales haven't been offering upgrade pricing, just full version), and I fully expect at some point I'll be doing more. (At least for book covers for my fiction, even if personal playtime never really bounces back.)
I like the idea of a lot of these improvements (especially the fitting room). Just trying to decide if they're worth even $100 to ME, given my current and projected level of usage....

The one thing that would definitely have sold me was major hair room improvements. But obviously we didn't get it, so I'm still in quandary land.

I caved and got it. The ability to mirror groups was a factor. That at least should speed up dynamic hair creation. Really need a good brush tool though.

I've been using the morph copy from V4 into the clothes today quite a lot. It's really useful.
I aim to update it about once a month. Oh, and it's free!
a complete, no nonsense, full size joint editor palette is a must-have selling point
a complete, no nonsense, full size weight map brushing editor palette is a must-have selling point, need to see the figure and the clothes weightmaps at the same time.
