I actually do not worry for that poser will loose a stable marketplace. Com-pairing it with DS , Ds still has a loong way to go to be able to offer what poser does offer. Most Artists make Rigging and Boning In poser as it is almost impossible to do it in DS. Figures are mostly done in Poser then just trans faired to DS so it is indispensable for a creator not to have it. there are to many scripts in poser that a Creator needs to make hes life simple . If you know poser then a figure will be boned in a matter of seconds ! Rigging is easy ! allot of features Poser has is not advertised but people who use it know about the hidden Features. just looking at the Import feature of .DAE a Poser user is not bound on specific stuff made for it . DS has a lock for DAE if you load this format then you will get a ripped off figure. Not working , Poser will get this Mesh fully boned and rigged on the Platform. Meaning that the user is not specifically bound on Cr2 format. for sure DS is bound on hes format in the major part causing the costumers to believe that there is no alternative way. if a creator uses a DEA format he gets allot of support as sample " Mixamo " a cup of cofee and your figure is ready and supported by Poser. Allot of Poser users do not only use there format and are not bound on a specific poser market , another reason why some Vendors or stores like Daz want to get rid of it. so a reason why Ds is very limited for support.

In Poser you are able to get fast rigging through third party support and it is the most tedious part of creation , one coud choose to do it in DAZ but he will not get any great results. Make it in Poser Load in DS then save it there Coded that is the way it goes.

Smaple : This figure took me 10 min In poser to get the basic rigging Impossible to get it into DS unless I save it as CR2 then Reload in DS to create a exclusive DS Product Allot of people are not aware of these facts and Creators do not reveal the secrets as they wanna sell there Products they will tell you on what high end program they need! DS is getting the market locking out poser to secure an income . When I look into DS it is not more then a Game in witch you can buy your little ad-dons , one might as well buy a good game and spend thousands of$ for new Updates. Poser has a potential to make your own creations , supports 100% other major formats and a good creator whether for DS or Poser is fully aware of it. so I sure have no worries that poser will fade away. Smith Micro does not depend on Markets like here or Daz they just look at the statistics of how many buy the Programm , and there are quiet many.
