Was just going over my old posts at the old Poser Forum and found several of the ideas to make Poser better and how to improve the program, at least for animation. I really doubt that Renderosity buying Poser is somehow going to make Poser a better program. Looking at the discussions about layers Poser 9 had some problems but 10 made things worse after they put in collapse layers, which never worked and would add the prior frame to the value of current frame making the figure move off scene fast. With 11 it got even worse. The new team fixed a couple of the smaller issues so it was a little better but no where usable without a lot of work arounds. So in the last 2+ years was the new team able to fix a lot of the bugs and never got to put out a service update waiting to put it out as Pose 12. The last two updates showed just how bad making small changes are very hard to do. Part of the updates was good however they lost the send to render queue function. When it was brought to their attention the response was that that function caused errors due to other errors being fixed. They finally got the button back but it took them a while to code out a new version. So if something as simple as a send to queue button has convoluted code paths what about the rest of the program? How long is it going to take to get a new team up to speed on the code and actually make the improvements that are needed? Not to be negative but I had hopes the last team would be able to fix some of the issues so that real improvements could occur
