"Because , just like this thread, Any attempt at a conversation about poser in the POSER forum becomes a force conversation about DAZ.”

I disagree, Any thread about poser that is not directly related to Figures usually run its course with no Drama.

But it seems few users here are very excited by how mesh lights work in “superfly” or how to make a cool bronze shader for “superfly” Nor do forum members seem particularly compelled to discuss the utilitarian advantages of the new CAD style Scene measurement tools in P11

Poser is about posing and rendering mostly female figures and the prevailing Opinion is that the native poser ones are less than stellar. And the DAZ ones are simply ..BETTER. To say nothing of cynical afterthought Male offerings like “Paul”..sorry, but thats is the reality of it

Get emotional, and combative and attack & troll The DAZ merchs all you want.. No matter.

Until SMITH MICRO alters this paradigm in some significant way with their own POSER NATIVE female figure and content technology, built to some top down UNIFORM STANDARD that leverages the LATEST VERSION of poser, the forum threads will inevitably follow this same tedious course.

Ahh yes, Poser is about posing and rendering! At least, that what I hear.

There's hardly anything else available that isn't for the DAZ Gen 4 through Genesis figures. As I've posted before, I've been noticing the shift away from V4 to Genesis. It seems SM either needs to step up their efforts on female and male figures, or relent to DAZ being the king for hobbyist/artist figures and work toward native support for Genesis figures in Poser. At least from threads I have read, DAZ has offered to help SM get Genesis into Poser, but SM didn't want to.
