DAZ does not have any version of Poser 5 in any form. As it has been stated earlier, it is very important that we do not cross any legal boundaries in the development of our applications. As far as feature sets as well as the actual development of our application, they started in January of this year (long before the release of Poser 5). We don't need to have Poser 5 to know what features we want in the application we are developing. Our application is not intended to be a Poser Clone but a new 3D application that will have merits of its own. Animation, Posing, Rendering etc. are found in almost every 3D application. They all just have different ways of approaching those functions. As with everything else, some people may love what we develop and other may not. We are very excited about what we are developing and look forward to the day when we can share more concrete information about it. We appreciate all of the feedback and suggestions that we are getting from people in the community. This feedback is key to the success of what we are doing. Thanks for the comments, Sincerely, Dan Farr P.S. Back on topic, Mimic, should still be able to work with Poser 5 as that Poser 5 is backwards compatible. I am not sure whether or not Codetwister (the creator and developer of The Tailor) is working on anything that is Poser 5 compatible at this time.
