Without getting too technical, here are a few thoughts about P5. This comes after about a month spent with P5 on my PC.
I will lose some of you right off the bat: I like P5. A lot.
Yes, in spite of the occasional "C Exception" program crashes, and in spite of the memory issues, and in spite of other technical glitches, I am glad that I invested in P5.
I have to admit that P5 got off to a bit of a rocky start with me. But, two patches later, matters are clearing up.
One word of advice: P5 doesn't really shine without help. That is, help in the form of a fast processor and lots of RAM. XP helps, too. I've tried P5 with an older, slower system. If you have a slow system, then stick to simple scenes in your P5 renders. You will be a much happier person for it.
But if your PC has the muscle, then things are possible in P5 that were not possible before. With a little patience, and a relatively small learning curve, I can now go to the places where my imagination takes me.
And imagination is what Poser is all about.
Thanks, CL.
