Amapi is a great program. I use it for pretty much everything. I do have v6.1, but even 4.15 can do just about anything you want it to. v4 doesn't support .obj files, so it makes creating morph targets pretty much impossible, but there are other simple programs like Anim8or that you could use for morphs but that aren't capable of even a fraction of the things that Amapi can do. No, Amapi doesn't have the enormous user base that Poser has, but then what other app does? The folks in the Amapi forum will do their best to help you with any problems you may have. There are quite a few tutorials around, too. There are some really good ones right at the eovia site, Staigerland is another good site, and there are some great tuts in the Amapi forum itself, mostly from Brycetech (who should maybe change his name to "Amapitech"?), but from others as well, including a wonderful series from Thip on creating... clothes for Michael! Also, I have to say that personally, I've found Amapi to have one of the friendliest, easy to master interfaces of any modeling app I've ever tried (and I've tried a lot of them). I got Cinema 4D 5SE free from a magazine, but its modeling tools are pretty weak and the interface is just horrible! Gmax is damned powerful, but learning it is like taking piloting lessons. Hell, even Carrara (which isn't free by any means) doesn't come anywhere near Amapi in modeling capabilities, and the interface is much more complicated. So to each their own, but I recommend Amapi highly. Here's a couple of links to tuts that can give you a better idea of what Amapi can do and how it works: http://www.staigerland.com/amapi/tutorials.html http://perso.club-internet.fr/odrion/
