Just spent an hour poring over the long recent thread about DAZ Studio's upcoming release. I came away thinking this program has two advantages over P5: 1. Open GL 2. A nice GUI I love DAZ (I'm a platinum member) and I seem to be one of the few p5 users that actually likes the program in spite of the bugs. But I just dropped over a hundred bucks to upgrade to P5, now I'm being courted by her sister company to buy a (likely) 200. app that does---what? Gives me a better look at V3? No thanks. And sorry, but that screenshot didn't show me a thing. Correct me if I'm wrong but DAZ Studio looks like an expensive Preview Window plug-in for P5. I want to support this community and certainly want apps with better functionality, but DAZ slaps a sleek GUI on line and says Open GL and people go ga-ga. Huh??? No mention of lighting, animation, export capabilities. DAZ says they don't want to compete with P5 but that's clearly what this app will be, yet where's the significant improvement beyond Open GL? I just wish CL and DAZ would at least give us a list of INTENDED features and specs before teasing us with beauty shots. I like a little steak with my sizzle. I guess I feel like I'm being taken for granted and it's getting tiresome. It's sort of like shouting "fire" in a theater just for the thrill of seeing people get wound up.
