Who 3D, Dave-so, others, For reasons that we have discussed previously, we have not installed Poser 5 on any of our systems. Curious Labs has stated that Poser 5 is backwards compatible and Poser 4 content should work in Poser 5. Therefore we are building our products using Poser 4 with the expectations that Poser 5 is backwards compatible. As far as the future development of Poser 5 specific products (that incedently are useless for the majority of the customers who still only have Poser 4 at this time) we are working with Curious Labs on an agreement that would make us feel comfortable to do so (a unilateral agreement for all developers). This is definitely not a "pissing match" but a real catch 22 situation. We can install Poser 5 so that we can support products that should already be working in Poser 5, or not install and provide this market with additional options that hasn't been offered before. Our number one interest is to support you the customers. I think that we have done our best to proove that is our interest and there are going to be more things coming in the near future that will confirm that is still our number one interest. Sincerely, Dan Farr
