Hello all...

I been going to CL's website after they have announced their bring of Poser 6, and was wondering if some are using the program and how is it compared to 4/PP/5...

I am really fascinated with their working on the lighting of P6, and the new figures of Jessi and James [what a clever idea in my opinion].

I got both P4/5 and had worked with P4 since 2003, for doing 3D artwork and all.

The one thing that will concern me is the Technical Specs. I am noticing while browsing the Poser boards that it takes a good video card {NVidia} and other specs to use either FireFly or OpenGL, w/ the P4 render support.

Is P6 an improvement over 5? I hope I'm not making a question up that's too soon since physical shipment will take a while. What will get me is that I want to order by early April, and I would like to get the Full Standard version - not the SE because I already have Shade 7.

Other than that...

I have a 3 y.o. Dell, XP [now with SP2], 1.6GHz Intel 4, 256 RAM [of which is used heavily somewhat], with a Rage 128 Pro Ultra GL AGP from ATI [I don't know whether that's my video card or not, but sounds like I need to upgrade mine].

I have tried P4 with no problems whatsoever, but I had read some interesting reviews of P5 with mixed nuts. When they've improved w/ the SP4, it was like P4, only advanced. I now know that P5 have FireFly, and it can take a while to render as opposed to P4 render. I notice the same situation I had when I tried Daz|Studio Beta renders, and it took that long.

So, just wanted to know what others had thought about P6 [assuming those have d/l and tried it out when it was released]...

Have a good evening,
