Reading all this makes me wonder what renderosity is going to do with the thousands of older Poser packages sold that might not work correctly anymore ! there will be allot of work ahead for the testers and especially for all the creators that still sell the assets updating there material settings so that they work. All Posers have been removed from the market so if a new customer buys a product he will look at Promo renders made with other Poser versions then 12 and when trying to make a render with Poser 12 they might not be pleased about the results they will get. Sure Poser now has a Store integration but all these or most assets are or seem not to be compatible anymore with Poser 12. especially Packages that have loads of Pytons for the material settings.

that is going to be a 24/ 24 testing period for the official Rendo testers and even more work for the Vendors that might not even make any profit for the updates !

from what I see until now renders do not seem to get better then they were in prior Poser versions, I rather think that people are looking for quality and not speed. for sure it will not be the solution saying buy a product and fix it your self , or is it ?
