I still use Poser Pro 2014 periodically.  I was a Poser 11 beta tester and I bought v11.2, but I've never really used them.  Why?  Superfly doesn't interest me at all, and none of the other whizwhams have impressed me enough to overcome my resistance to being forced to keep my computer online.  I sort of think Poser actually ended for me around the Dimension3D died.  But, you know.  I'm an old crank whose hobbies now include running Linux on old Chromebooks and strangling puppies, and I don't adapt to change very well nowadays.

I've always been more of a Posertechie and not much of a Pretty Render Person.  When I use Poser, I end up working on weight-mapping, building and revising figures, Python scripting, and editing cr2 files.  I think Poser has been moving away from the range of possibilities that enabled the Posertechie focus, moving now toward imposing a specific way of doing things on the user.  A bunch of you can probably tell me that I'm wrong about that.  Oh well.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
