Hi Faemike55 - The horror stories are real! Sigh! I recently bought an Western Digital external backup drive but it's software (even after upgrade) failed to work properly with Windows 7. Will my harddrive woes every stop! Anyhoot I replaced it with a Seagate external backup drive that purrs along nicely.....for the momment. LOL.

For all my future content I will need a quantum memory storage device. LOL.

Hi beaymac - Thanks for your info. I'm basically thinking of the Poser Debut as a tool to fix Poser files to work in DS. I have the full Poser but don't want to upgrade it everytime just to make some Poser files work in DS. I'll never give up on DS and looking forward for the realease of DS4.

Hi Faemike55 - I've never been happy on CP's policy to pay extra for guaranteed downloads up to 2year. That's why I buy most of my content here are Rendo (& Daz & RuntimeDNA).  Having 2 harddrives fail in 1 year I was happy I can download again products I bought at Rendo. I know I should backup (and I do now). But that extra bit of service from Rendo gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling of security. LOL.

Hi sylki - Sorry to hear about your sick dog. Hope he gets better soon. I once worked on a mine site in the remote outback of Australia. One of the foremen had an injured dog and had to take it to the vet. The drive to the nearest vet was 6 hours! The Aussie outback is big. Just imagine the USA with only the coastal cities and nothing inbetween except desert and shrubs (and a lot of Kangaroos LOL).

Hmmmm. Well it looks like we won't get a full reveiw till they fix the payment procdure. LOL.

The training videos included in the offer sound interesting.

Quote - First things first, THANK YOU :D  You made my day, and if you were closer, I'd give you a cookie.  (Seriously, I made too many.)

Chocolate Chip PLEEEEASE! LOL.

I got the same promo link from a friend by email. I was going to post it here but asked a moderator first. I don't do animation (no time) so don't really give a hoot about this product.

I think the promo seems too good to be true. The marketing people at pmG should of done a better job at allaying fears that "if something is too good to be true then it is".

pmG should of atleast said what the target was for the number of units to be sold. That missing little bit of details does make it all smell fishy.

Anyhoot if in doubt aways run it past one of the moderators first. It's their job to keep our playground safe and us children in line. LOL.

You will have to get the free InjectPMD plugin by DeltaX15 over at Daz Forums. This plugin works for PZ2 files but will not work for PP2 files.

BTW you should try the free version of Daz Studio first to see if it suits your workflow.

DAZ have their Millenium Dog Starter Pack & Bundle currently both on 50% off Sale.

However I didn't see an English Setter in the morph list.

In  the bag as we type.

Also you may want to check out Bryce 7 at Daz3D. They have a free personal learning edition. It does many things the Vue does complete without adding modules and it's cheaper but the interface is not as efficient IMO. It sadly lacks a decent Scene content management tab, just like Poser. I find that excruciatingly frustrating. BTW I purchased Advance Figure Manager at RuntimeDNA that gives Poser 8/Pro 2010 a decent Scene content management tab.

I had Miki2 free on a CD from some 3D computer magazine. I never installed her. So I'm not too fussed about Miki3 not working in Daz Studio.

Anyhoot I think anyone putting a new female model on the market is brave to compete with Vicky4, her sisters Aiko, Stephanie, and SheFreak, and her many morphs. Not to mention her hunderds of clothes, hair styles, shoes, fetish impliments (blush), etc.

I think the Poser community will be more pissed off that Miki3 isn't compatable with previous versions of Poser. I believe there are still many with early versions of Poser. Not everyone can afford to continuously upgrade. Anyhoot not a wise idea to piss off your target market.

If you want some of Aery Soul product textures for Daz Studio you should also ask at Daz3D forum.

Aery Soul still sell products for Victoria 4 mostly here at Renderosity and some at DAZ3D and RuntimeDNA. Most of the earlier products for Victoria 3 are no longer available.

Not sure why they have done this considering they were nearly always Vendor of the Year. Maybe they want to give other vendors a fair chance at the title. LOL.

Alice is a custom morph for Victoria 4 created by Aery Soul. Slightly anorexic elfin babyface model. Aery Soul use her extensivley in their promotional work. Around Chrsitmas time last year she was made avaiable here at Renderosity market place for limited time. Maybe they will do this again this Christmas.

Quote - The bottom line is simple.  You are NEVER going to see thousand dollar software in hunderd dollar hobby tools.

If you need those tools, spend the money and get what the pros use.

Or learn Blender, it's FREE, but has a very steep learning curve. Sigh!

BTW I don't do animation either because unfortunatley I just don't have the time to put into it. Deeper sigh!

I'm not sure that others have said this, but I'm sure they must of, but even though they have said so, then I will say so too......THANK YOU for all the freebies.

The attached link is to a Japan webpage that updates the photo of a Japan girl (no nudity) holding up a card with the Japan current time on it.

The girl's image updates approx every 10 seconds and replaced by a new girl's image approx every 1~2 minutes.

Too cute ^.^

BTW the reason they show "blood type" is because they consider it a part of descibing ones personnality, sort of equivalent to a Zodiac Horoscope.

I know that after registering PoserClub sends an email with a link you have to click on for verification.

Maybe one of the Japanese artists here at Renderosity would be so kind as to contact PoserClub and ask them to help us 外国悪魔. LOL.

Another great Japan artist website to look at is Pixiv if you like your Anime and Manga (and just a liitle bit of Hentai. @_@). Mostly 2D but their artist have great ideas on colour and composition and some very stylish work.
