Last week I talked to three techs at SmithMicro, two were top guns.  Both told me the same thing, that I would have trouble with Victoria 4.2 or any other DAZ figures after Poser 7.  Currently, I have loaded Poser 7 and 8 and Runtimes for Poser 5 and 6 content.  (Windows Vista - 64 bit) I called because I was white screening and crashing all the time and an occasional blue screen, really random occurances.  They said that SM no longer supports DAZ figures and from Poser 8 on they will get wider and wider apart.  The PMD files will not support V4.2 morphs so it must be turned off.  And that was correct.  I have been losing morphs and skin textures (from a phthon skript).  My concern is to go to Poser Pro 2010 after the unsettling discussions with the SM techs since all my figures are DAZ and the props from it, here and elsewhere.

It sounds like everything is running smoothly with everyone else here.  I would assume you all are using Victoria, M3 or 4, etc.  I looked at DAZ Studio, but the learing curve is huge. (I started with Poser 3)

Great art is simple; but, simplicity requires the greatest art!
