sorry to disappoint you, but having been part of the gang who survived Poser 5 it's pretty hard to get me frustrated by any recent development. I'm grateful to stewer and his (very small) gang for all the work done, from my software development background I do know what it takes.

I'm just having fun with it, it's the Fiat amongst 3D tools, and I'm not part of the gang who insists on turning the Fiat into a Ferrari for the price of a Vespa. Which doesn't stop me from understanding all its limitations, and from really mastering the features it actually offers.

And it's an artists tool to me, supporting a very wide range of styles, and enabling me to create reasonable and believable results in the photoreal arena too. For other goals I need (and use) other tools. Octane and Photoshop are my friends as well. Some people want to understand Poser from a Physics point of view. I''ve started to understand Poser from an artist''s point of view. Like: what are GC, IDL and Scatter doing to image depth and object shape presentation, and how do they interact?

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
