profotograf theres no need to be so rude!! I just dont understand why a mainly "poser" shop sells things that cannot be used in poser! I presume your a vendor & sell daz only items thats why your so narked!?! Theres plenty of places vendors can sell daz ONLY items I just dont think its fair selling them here in a poser community site thats all!

My post wasn't rude at all. It is a view of the current stance of things in this market. I've worked with every company that owned Poser since MetaCreations, beta testing the Poser program and creating and selling content for Poser since 1997. I ran PoserAddicts, MalePoserotica and Poserpedia, for more than a decade and a half. The industry has CHANGED. And not recently, over time. Renderosity is a Poser Only store? Since when? I bought Bryce products, 3DS products, Vue Products, Poser Products and many other types of Products here, including standalone software, that had nothing to do with Poser itself here at Renderosity. I don't understand why telling you the facts of what happened to the market for Poser is "rude". Ask anyone who left the Poser marketplace to go to Daz why they did it. You realize that Victoria 4 of Generation 4 was released late 2006 that was 11 years ago. People are only creating Victoria 4 and Michael 4 textures because they work in Poser standalone without the need for importers. Between Genesis 1 and Genesis 3, figured have advanced in leaps and bounds and technology has advanced rapidly.

I'm truly sorry you have been out of the community for several years and came back to something new, but in the software industry things never stand still. My store PoserAddicts is all but dead because no one wanted to create for Poser anymore as the interest in the Poser Community dropped to almost 0, and they were no longer interested in buying products in quantities enough to interest a content provider to make more. The market was Daz Studio, and sales were higher and more lucrative. And hence the Poser marketplace slowed down drastically. Additionally, innovative products were not being produced for Poser anymore as sales were so abysmal.

I only left PoserAddicts open as a Legacy Store - since there are products there for Generation 3 and Generation 4, which still is of interest to Poser users, and now that Daz Studio has Autofits for the clothing for Generation 3 and 4, you can just convert them to Iray and add shaders and some of the clothing looks amazing today even better than back then.

I simply gave you a few examples of how the industry had advanced and did not intend it to be misinterpreted as rude.
