have instancing ability like VUE to dump billions of polygons of content without the software shutting down. Then Poser users would not need VUE for nature scenes. This is the primary aspect of 3d that is holding Poser down... the inability to render big, expansive REALISTIC nature scenes with people able to be posed as easily... as ONLY as easy as Poser itself allows
Since Posette and Miki2, all your Poser people have sucked... focus on making very low poly people as background filler... OR... actually invest in a market viable figure to compete with DAZ Genesis... and that won't be in the budget... so, like I said... focus on very low poly background people who can populate massive scenes and be replicated with your new kickass instancing machine. Look at Predatron's successful low poly people. Consider the ability to clothe thousands of Posette 4 people who can be animated with very small computer processing. It makes no sense to offer heavy poly, heavy file size people who suck anyways compared to the competitor... right? Why waste the time and money investment? Offer a low poly medival knight and a low poly business woman and low poly clothed kid, etc... make the Poser peope actually something 100% of your customer base will use instead of like the what''s their names that only 10% of your customers use.
Please Please Please take a look at the Poser galleries here and stop listening solely to the Poser forums. How many "I want total photorealism" renders do you see in the galleries? THOSE are the people in the gallery are actually buying stuff. The people in the forums who post a lot mostly don't buy ANYTHING. I did not buy Poser pro 2012 and 2014. Why? Look at the damn galleries. I want the same things the people in the galleries want. How is Renderosity's store staying alive with Genesis products already in the 'clearance' category? Poser and DAZ have screwed the vendors. But buyers would love to be able to buy all a loved vendor's products. If the vendors lose interest, the buyers of Poser will lose interest. The buyers of Poser post in the gallery and rarely say anything in the forums. The galleries tell you exactly what Poser users are buying and using.
Either swallow your pride and work to make Genesis work fully in Poser or release a kickass product that gallery artists want to use. I am damn frustrated with all this focus on realism and a product that is worthless with practicality and usefullness in day-to-day
