One of the things that made me pre-order Poser 5 as soon as it was available was the promise for free third party plugins. Now Curious Labs has talked about them thinking about ways to redeem themselves specially with us people who pre-ordered the software and ended up beta-testing. If you want to make us happy, implement an FBX plugin in your Service Pack 4. I'm willing to wait months for this service pak instead of the tentative January date. You would be making something a lot better than what we had for Poser 4 since the stability of our files would depend on the high end application plus we get to directly manipulate our scenes not just host them. A host application is always more limited and unstable than a full import/export solution. For anybody that doesn't knows what FBX is, its the standard for importing a 3D figure with bones and vertex weight into high end 3D applications. It is supported by 3D Studio Max, Maya, Lightwave, Cinema 4D and a few others.
