They could really improve things performance-wise by implementing OpenGL Hardware-based Rendering. We could get a few frames per second instead of a frame every few minutes. Their Tech Support has indicated to me that they will consider it. I wouldn't hold my breath. They've been "considering" it for years now. You know, to put another POV on that, I got Poser 3 and Bryce3D together in a package in 1998 or so. Bryce3D had OpenGL preview. Poser still doesn't. If P5 had been written from the ground up, the development would have taken two to three years. Actually, P5 development did take two or three years. Hey, I seem to recall Kupa promising to come in and tell us what the heck they were DOING for the past 3 years. Did I miss it, or did that never happen?
