Poser versions previous to P9 and PPro 2012 are not Lion compatible. Although I was able to run P8 under Lion, it was a buggy pain in ther butt. However, (P9 and) PPro 2012 are completely Lion compatible. I'm liking it alot.

Quote - Lion is very-very-Bad for Poser, I had to do a comelete reformat. The 64bit isn't a golden anwere either. If you run it your Poser Library goes outside the program to wait for use? The 32 bit you can leave it in Poser.

Huh? I'm on a 2.16 GHz Core2Duo iMac, I'm running PPro 2012 (64 bit) with Lion and also have none of the problems you're describing. In fact, it's faster than any version of Poser I've had and I've been using Poser since version2. My Poser library does not go "outside the program to wait for use." It's also very fast and smooth. Scrolling, drag and drop, etc. 

I did not, however, download PPro 2012. I installed from the CD. Not sure if that makes a difference in your resulting program.

Poser 9: 32 bit. Poser Pro 2012: 64 bit.

TG's mom passed away recently and she's says on her site that she'll be taking some time off.

Yes, please. And thanks for your generosity.

As do I. Especially for Clay, whose patience has been remarkable.

Civility in all things.

Yes, it's the user's choice to make the leap. I don't need to worry about upgrading 100 computers, nor do most of the members of Renderosity, who are, for the most part, hobbyists. So that's pretty much a non-issue.

I too, chose to upgrade to Lion and I'm finding it to be a stable, elegant, state-of-the-art OS, that offers (if the user chooses to include the Apple trackpad) a very cool, touch-screen interface that recreates the iOS of the iPhone and iPad. Nice. Can I live without MS Word until the upgrade. Yup, I'm using Pages. Can I get along without Photoshop CS5? Don't have to. It works fine under Lion. Poser 9 for Lion, weeks away. Bryce? Don't get me started. And when the software companies begin their upgrade releases, Lion will be even better.

The onus is on software companies to upgrade their products. That seems to be clear to Smith-Micro, whose soon to be released Poser 9 and Posesr Pro 2012 will be Lion compatible. OS 10.7 has been in beta testing, and availabe to developers for months. Of course they'll be initial incompatibilities, as is true with any new major OS release. And yes, until the upgrades come in, it's a major pain in the butt. Remember the OS 9 to OS X change. Yikes! Yet, it's one of the best things Apple has ever done.

I'm running Lion and I'm liking it. Can I live without Bryce? Ha, ha. Since the developers broke the Picture Lab for Snow Leopard (and Windows) months ago, and have yet to release the supposedly fixed version because they're currently engaged in some kind of intra-company blood-feud, Bryce is just a memory for me. As for DAZ Studio, like I said: Poser. Customers have a right to be pissed at DAZ, and it should have little to do with Apple.

Quote - There is NOT a fix for the materials lab for any version. Pc or MAC. But i must say that I really like B7. I'll continue to use it on my PC. Just wished I could use it on my shiny new MacBook Pro :rolleyes:

Maybe not. What I meant was the "Pictures Lab."

vncnt: I'm on the same page with you regarding the endless waiting periods between upgrades, and the bug-infested releases. I've not been able to use B7 Pro since they broke the materials lab, supposedly fixed it months ago, but have yet to release the fix (for Snow Leopard!). Now with the release of Lion, that can has been kicked way down the road. DAZ needs to face reality, get its house in order, cut its losses and sell this software. They're clearly in over their heads.

If you stare at this post and blur your eyes, you'll see a hidden picture...of a blurry paragraph of blithering nonsense.

Not Lion compatible.

But all future versions of Poser And Poser Pro will be.

I've also found that P8 does work in 10.7, with the few minor issues mentioned above.

No word yet from S-M on an upgrade date.

Cool. Thanks.

Wolf: Yep, that did the trick. The Graph Editor does all, sees all, knows all. Thanks for the great video tutorial.
