I Mainly use Poser 11 Pro , it is essential for my work as for figure creation it is offering it's best so that these can be used without issues in prior and future versions. I am not a Texturing specialist, each artist has he's strength's so I specialized my self making standalone rigged models. Poser 11 comes with loads of python addons that are essential for creators especially when it comes on building fully articulated models from scratch.

Were I a texturing Spezialist then I guess I would have to make an upgrade and stay on the newest version to be able to offer the adequate product as mainly the upgrades on newer versions are basically concentrating on materials and rendering, not on the creation of the base models it self.

In some occasions I use Poser 2014 as for new created Master and Easy Pose dials are compatible with DS, PP11 is causing an issue so that these newly created Morphs an do not work properly when Importing a cr2 in DS.

I have Poser 12 but just using it to check once in a while if the model is loading in a correct way. I guess I will not be able to upgrade the next level since all the necessary pythons do not work and never will be upgraded it will not be of any use for me. 

I already only make " Unimesh " single skinning models since 2016 for Poser so the announced upgrade to Unimesh will not really be a change for my creations as it is already a Part of Poser. If one Day Poser would come out with an upgrade that is really worth to Improve Articulated Poser models then I sure will have to upgrade to be able to offer the newest standards.     

Would you care to expound on your rigging process, in broad strokes? No need to explain your use of EPU or it's ERC master stuff, that's after the fact. You're rigging your models outside of Poser, correct ?

I realize this is a bit off topic, but OP mentions his rigging a lot in relation to Unimesh.

Vopehov506 is correct, but they asked that we not derail this thread to debate topics. I can expand on it in another thread if you'd like.
