Smith Micro sold Poser to Renderosity. They no longer have any responsibility. Renderosity, as you indicate, does not support Game Developer. I am living under a sword of Damocles.
I own Poser 11 (think I paid $199 for it) but have never loaded it. It had problems with the library search which was not as good as my Poser Pro 2014 with Game Developer. When I found out that both game developer and P11 Pro had kill switches - after starting the program one day and seeing a Red notice that I had to get permission to keep using it or it would quit in 14 days or whatever, and then going through hoops every three months to keep it running for the next year (gradually extended to 6 months) I decided 'this is for the birds.' Some computer aided design software programs have what is essentially a rent to own. You can pay in installments until they give you the serial number and you can load it on any of your machines/devices (though typically only one or two or three at a time, max). But they don't just up and abandon it and let it die so you can never use it again.
