Not to detract from this interesting discussion

You're not detracting. You're contributing.  :)

 

Can you please give me information on where can I find these 2 characters Brenna and Garrick in Poser, as I do not see them in the content library. 

They may not be legacy content but purchased.  Depending on how long ago they were released, they may no longer be available.

Great looking render.

Thank God it’s not available for the Mac. I upgraded to 13 to support Bondware’s  rescue of Poser but never use it.  No guilt this time!

There's ANOTHER issue I've noticed.  If I open an older render that has a cloth simulation in it, Poser 14 will not only crash, it also takes the simulation data with it.

:(

That is alarming.  There goes my plan for setting up a cloth simulation in P13 and rendering it in P14.  Hmm.  I wonder if there's a workaround. =\

Did you by chance submit a ticket? That's why I was so cautious about the claims that 'well you can just use an earlier version to simulate'. Removing the Cloth Room meant they took out an entire feature that requires several scripts to run and those are not able to be run/ interpreted correctly from a file that contains them ( the one you set up in previous version). 

I hope i'm wrong and they can fix it, but not holding out hope.

I didn't submit a ticket because the LAST issue I submitted a ticket for still hasn't been resolved. I'm disappointed with P14 and feel like I've wasted my money on the upgrade.

I didn’t buy because I saw they took out the cloth room and there were not only no new figures but zero pre- marketing and zero new content included.  I've everything i need in P13.

FYI - cloth extensions for the Physics Simulation in Poser 14 is currently in beta testing.  Hopefully ready for public release fairly soon.

That sounds promising.  But are you aware that the bullet physics simulation is broken?  I submitted a ticket some time ago.

Bullet Physics has been VERY disappointing for me. I'm still using V4 and M4, which means that I have to paint the areas where I want movement in an animation. That not only takes a lot of time, but the parameters for the physics are non-intuitive, and the only motion available is up and down. I've wound up relying on the old Jiggles for Poser script in P11 if I want any wiggle in my women characters.

i've a question...

i use PP2014.  i don't sim clothing nor do i use the fitting room for anything [my clothing conversions are a manual process for me, whether they're conforming or i'm converting dynamic clothing into conforming clothing] so i'm not really up on those functions...

but i'm curious because mesh is mesh, yea?

if say you sim something in P13, but you want to render in P14, could you not do the sim, then save out the mesh as an OBJ, re-import it and parent it to the figure you were simming on, save your PZ3 file and then bring it all into P14 for rendering, or after saving out your mesh, open your PZ3 in P14, import the OBJ, parent, yadda yadda and go from there?

if you can, kinda sucks you now have extra steps and hoops to hurdle, but it would be a work around, no?

as i said, i've no hands on knowledge here, so please be kind if i've gotten it all wrong :))

Yes, that is entirely feasible.  As long as simulation is not involved, saving an object and importing it into P14 will work.
