Bondware now owns Poser. Much of Posers future will depend on how fast Bondware wants a return on investment from Renderosity.

As far as content compatibility between both apps goes? It will take some handshaking between Bondware and DAZ but when one makes "content" fully compatible between both apps and with DS being free and Poser to make money from? That outcome seems predictable.

Something Bondware and Renderosity will certainly have meetings with DAZ over.

As i stated in my opening; Much will depend on how fast Bondware expects a return on investment from Renderosity.

And that will depend largely if the new Renderosity Poser team can find a fix for Posers Masterbug => The internal handling of the obj file.

Best regards, but above all, congrats to the Bondware / Renderosity team for the peaceful buy-over.

You forget some things: there are people that prefer the Poser interface over DS and would be willing to pay for that useability. Also, the trick, even if it had DS figure compatibility, is for Poser to have what DS doesn't and so far, it's ahead of the game there by a very slim margin. If it can include things that DS doesn't have, or things that are denied regular DS users and only allowed to PA's, they could probably pull it off. People have gone over to Character Creator and that costs money as well. We'll just have to see how things flesh out.
