True. I rarely buy anything that's not compatible with Poser though I have made some exceptions with Genesis 2 when I was able to use Studio. Would rather use things without going the DSON importer route since that doesn't always play nicely with my system. As much as possible I support vendors who produce for Poser, but it's kinda hard to do that sometimes because what they make, while excellent, is not what I need. For instance, Vendor A releases a set that is 100% usable in Poser and other programs, no DSON thingy required. BUT ... it's a modern prison scene and I have no need for one of those. Vendor B, who no longer uses Poser but whose items can be imported into it even though it's a right pain, releases a futuristic spaceship interior that is precisely what I do need for my current project. On the one hand I want to support the PA that supports my program of choice, on the other hand said PA does not do Sci-fi or historic stuff while the one who doesn't support Poser (except in a roundabout kludgy way that requires much effort on my part) comes up with exactly what I'm looking for. :sigh: What's a poor customer to do? Yes, Poser is Poser. It is not, and never should become Daz Studio, on that we're agreed I think. But better compatibility between the two, for those who need it, surely wouldn't hurt either.
