Please FFS stop spreading this crap. DSON is Open source! SM chose NOT to include it in Poser. There is no legal nonsense that says they can't, or any instance where they have to pay Daz to incorporate it. Daz approached them and said "Here guys, this is what we are doing, this is our new figure and format, do you want to include it?" SM said NO. Only viable alternative was Daz creating the DSON importer, a "hack" since at the time they felt the Poser market was still viable to their business, and wanted them to also experience the Genesis platform. However the Poser users gave DSON a big Fuck you, and therefore support was eventually dropped, because Daz could not improve it without SM's help, and SM didn't lift a damn finger in that regard. It is a shame, because via DSON, developers could easily support both platforms. That was the plan. A bridge between the two apps and only DSON provided that, meaning content developers wouldn't have to do everything twice.

Does it make any sense that Daz wouldn't want more of the market using their figures and content? Have an issue with Poser not being compatible with Genesis or their format, go speak to SM. I am sick of these ambassadors repeating the same BS lies to users blaming Daz when they should be pointing fingers at SM. So what did Daz do with Genesis3? They said fine and stopped Poser support, because their user base has expanded so much that Poser as a business model is no longer a viable. Why should they bother anymore when they now have the muscle and market and vendor support to now stand on their own feet? What is SM's response to that? Pauline and Paul.....Great job there...So yes, If you want to use the Genesis platform, use Studio, because support for Poser from Daz is officially over.
