I suppose you've seen the above. I'm on a Macintosh, though, and I think this only works with Windows. I'm using DAZStudio as well as Poser, and use DS for genesis 3 (and 2, and 1) figures. I wrote to Smith Micro, when they requested that I fill out a survey, that they need to get Poser updated or fixed, in a future version, such as Poser 12 Pro, so that the new genesis figures (1, 2, 3, and whatever) will work in Poser.

I've read arguments about why Smith Micro will never do that, but I think they're going to lose out if they don't.

I've also read suggestions that I should buy a Windows emulator, such as Wine, and run that freebie that way.

No, I think that the simple solution, for Macintosh users anyway, is to use DS as well as Poser, which of course may eventually lead people away from Poser, and cause Smith Micro to lose profits. And, of course, eventually Poser may just stop being developed. How many people will buy Poser 12 Pro, if the situation remains as it is now? (Lest you think I'm abandoning Poser: I would! I'm buying Poser, at least the next version. Guess I'm hooked on it. So, see, I really am a Poser supporter.)

I still prefer Poser, at least for posing, but . . .

And as far as something which Smith Micro will never do, or just is impossible, I remember when, at times, a Macintosh user would wish that Apple would switch to using Intel chips instead of sticking with the Motorola chips (for the boost in speed), and the technical know-how people would make fun of such wishful thinking and point out that it was completely impossible to do and could never happen. (And they had numerous reasons to illustrate why such a wish was absurd.) So, I'm saying, yes, it is possible.

If Smith Micro wants Macintosh people to stay with Poser, they had better start rewriting some parts of Poser so that genesis figures can be imported.
