As usual- the SR-1 update is available-- but apparently not for us MAC folk. I've had Poser-6 for a month now and all I could render is 3 simple comps. Anything more elaborate I try crashes.

CL is going to have to go a long way before I think kindly about them in the future.

I'm very disappointed

Ain't it the truth! I hope Apple enjoys all the crash logs I send them. Worth it, though, not having to deal with a Windoze box. Rock on, Mac users!

"Also this is the windows installer only. The Macintosh release will be out soon. We need additional testing time for Mac OS X Tiger. Thanks again, EFSteve" lets see.. Tigers been out what? 2 weeks? be fair guys. extra test time is allowed....

Next time change the nick back before posting, eh? ;)

(oh, I see the post got deleted... heh.)

Give them time. We wouldn't want some fiasco where the dmg file acccidentally erases your home directory or whatever. (hey, just kidding). They got this out alot quicker than I expected, anyway. Although it shouldn't have been such a piece of bugware in the first place.

Well, yes, Tiger has been out commercially for two weeks. Tiger development has been available to software developers for over a year (possibly two, if I remember). And this, one would assume, would include a beta OS for testing. Cinema 4D just released a 64-bit Windows version wherein 32-bit plugins will no longer function. I've already purchased a 64-bit machine, am awaiting Visual Studio 2005 for 64-bit development, and then will get Windows x64. All this so that I can be ready to migrate the plugin from 32-bit to 64-bit so that 64-bit C4D users will still be able to purchase/use my plugin. I am a major super conglomerate enterprise company of one... I sometimes wonder what CL, sorry, EF does in their spare time - when their developing.

I don't think this is the fault of Curious Labs. One of the reasons I'm not a MAC person any more is because of dealing with the lack of software support from almost all software developers for 15 years.

"Give them time. We wouldn't want some fiasco where the dmg file acccidentally erases your home directory or whatever. " Agreed; The Mac version is rather stable anyhow for general use, so there's no big hurry IMHO. /P

Tiger was released to developers around October 20, 2004. I sent an email to CL/EF asking them if they could give me a time frame. I got the same, "Gosh, we're sorry....keep checking our web site" email I got almost four weeks ago when Tiger came out. So we wait....flips to CL/EF website

Ah, okay. So it's only been seven months, but that is plenty of time for a group of developers (gee, I sure hope that EF has more than one developer!) to learn and implement such support. Maybe if EF needs more developers, I'm always available as long as they can cover relocation expenses. ;)
