I read a lot of tutorials on how to manually modify CR2 files and creating .mat poses files in text editors, some times it works and some times not. Most of the times I probably forgot to put a bracket in a line, but the main problem even if I do it right is that I waste a lot of time. Since Im at the bottom of my learning curve as far as regards 3D modelling software and having a day job I can only practice at night and during week ends (sigh!) the more time I can save the better. I read the info on both DAZ and Zenware web sites regarding CR2Edit and it looks great but I would like to know the opinions of the users. Is it really good as it seems? Does it really help you in your work? What about the new features in version 5? I would really appreciate some comment on this software. Thank you in advance for your time Staby
