I just ended an email conversation with Charles (Nerd3D) and was informed that Bondware has removed DSON compatibility with Poser 12. That's right. None of your DSON imported figures or even figures reworked but using DAZ bases will now work in Poser. It's apparently not an error or bug or glitch or python issue. No, they just apparently took away compatibility. It worked perfectly with 11.3 and past versions.

Charles said specifically, "DSON will not work in P12 so it's kind of moot any way."

Nothing in technical reason would require it to be disabled in 12. It's a script that runs in conjunction with Poser. If they're building on the same software, it would not inherently "lose" capability if it had it previously. That only occurs by intentional program alteration - aka, removed intentionally. Glad I saved my money and didn't buy this new upgrade. I'm not dumping my entire DSON library for it. This is just ludicrous. Who's brilliant idea was this? If they can't use DAZ figures and props, then they'll have to come buy Bondware stuff? Yeah! Cha-ching! Or so the thinking probably went. But in reality probably 90% of us have at least got Victoria 4 in our runtimes so we know the superior figures and clothing originate with DAZ. We all know their business model sucks and they're overpriced and Studio is mind-numbing to work with...but their stuff was top-notch. But I used it in Poser. POSER. Not DAZ studio. To me this is the equivalent of suicide for Poser. I'm done. Heck I was still using 10 anyway because I was still not happy with 11 or with the theft of my PoserPro2014 upgrade that I paid for. But this was it. I'm done. No DSON - no selling me Poser or your Poser related products.

Bring back DSON! What were you thinking?!?!?!?
