Most (not all) of the Poser content I'm seeing looks like stuff from 10 years ago in quality and shading. That's due to the lack of resources (tutorials etc) for getting better results.

This is extremely harsh on vendors. From my experience, in general, content for Poser is not inferior to content for DS. Not all content is of good quality, but that applies to both Poser and DS products.

I actually didn't mean it that way. I meant that they don't seem to be using Superfly and that in general they look exactly as they did when V4 came out. I'm not seeing much use of superfly shaders, with the exception of a couple of vendors. It doesn't mean the items are ugly or anything, I simply meant that the advances in Poser aren't being utilized, those advances are [presumably] intended to give better results than previous versions.

It's not as if there was no quality 10 years ago, my point was that what was good, or even great then seems to be the same now. However there are a few creators that are using superfly and you can see the difference, just like older 3delight vs iray.

That makes updating poser a moot point because the majority of the content does not require even Superfly, which in the long run can lead to lack of income for SM if people aren't feeling they need to upgrade for newer content.
