I'd be interested to learn more about the relationship between Poser and Daz content.

For starters, I know that some (but apparently not all) Daz content can be used in Poser already, but I'm very fuzzy on the details, and an education will be welcomed on that matter. When I'm shopping here or elsewhere how would I identify Daz content which will work in Poser without any jury rigging nerd tricks etc?

More to the point, I'd be interested to know if the development team has plans to make all Daz content work in Poser. Given that the 3D content stores seem to contain mostly Daz content such an upgrade would surely be useful to Poser users.

Best I can tell (somewhat educated guess) from 3-4 months using Daz, and now a few weeks in Poser....

Daz has more and better content, while Poser software is far superior (especially for animators).

This is just my impression from my own limited experience, and what I'm reading around the net. Will welcome any discussion which can further educate me on the matter. If my impression is generally correct, then obviously what I'd like to do is use Daz content in Poser software.

I was talking to someone the other day who owns a content store which overwhelmingly contains Daz content, even though the domain name makes it clear they started in Poser. Their opinion was that the future of Poser depends upon it's ability to use Daz content. I've read lots of other opinions along the same general line. How true?

I LOVE Poser software generally, and have no interest in trying Daz again. Been there, done that, waste of time. But when I'm shopping most the content which grabs my eye is for Daz.

QUESTION: Is there reason to hope that Daz and Poser will someday get married?

Well, ok, you know, again. They got divorced some time ago, and now we need them to get re-married, or something. :-)
