Hi Steve ( or anybody else please :-) ), I've posted this question before, but didn't get much feed back. I'd like to use this opportunity to humbly ask again.... I currently own a free 3D World Magazine copy of Poser 3. Can I upgrade this to Poser 4? I am in the middle of a production at the moment and the current version 4 features would greatly improve the final product. Please, your speedy reply would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much :-) !!!!!

Well I'm not Steve obviously, but when I asked the same thing about a year ago, I could not upgrade it through them. The Magazine I got it through, had an special offer but that was the only upgrade that I could purchase. So I just bought Poser 4 from Curious Labs.

Thanks Moonbiter !!!!! Do you still have any info on how to contact the magazine about the special offer ?. Please I'd be very grateful if I could obtain it. I remember having all that info myself, but I gave the magazine away a long time ago. Anyway, I even doubt if that offer still exists. However, I wouldn't mind contacting them again. So please hook me up with any info if you can :-) !!!!! Ofcourse the next option, like you said, is to purchase the the full version 4. It's "way, way " worth the money. I just wanted to be sure of all other options before handing over those dollar bills :-) !!! Thanxxxx again and keep on posering !!!

Punch 3D World magazine into the google search engine, & one of the links takes you to www.3dworldmag.com. Hmmmmm, wonder if there's a connection?

That's where I got my copy of Poser 3 from. I bought the upgrade to 4 from Upgrades Unlimited as I am in the UK and that's where they suggested you get it from, but any upgrades should work on it as the copy on the magazine was a full version of Poser 3.

AFAIK, there is no "upgrade" from P3 to P4, just a discounted price for the full version of P4 if you already own P3.

Ike, If you use a credit card you can contact Upgrades Unlimited in the UK and purchase the special upgrade from them. I'm not sure if the special price is still available or not but way back when it first came out I did it that way. Surprisingly the "upgrade" was the complete version 4 box, not just an upgrade disk. mike
