Hi all!
I don’t know if it’s only me or Daz really left all poser users out there to dry.
After Daz launched it’s software things became ever and ever distant from those to whom daz catered in the begining, but it all came apart when the genesis figures emerged…daz droped the poser comunity…realy, like a stone in water…I have been a platinum subscriber since almost it’s inception but I rarelly purchase anything anymore…I rarely visit Daz anymore, I just grew distant…it’s all about genesis now, but the creativity there was in the begining is no longer there…it’s the same stuff allready for M4 and V4, revisited time and again…
I guess I’ll be withdrawing my Platinum membership and just let Daz go…

What do you guys think?

I purchased a freebie (the hover tank) this month if that counts.  lol

Other than that…it’s been a while, a long while.

To the OP, a lot of us feel the same. I do most of my shopping at the other stores now. I think I’ve bought a handful of things here in the last few months (a few of them freebies). New figures for Poser are on the way though, Antonia is here, and GND Anastasia if you have the newest version of Poser. Since Genesis/V5/M5 are not for Poser, hopefully the talented Poser using vendors will give the new Poser figures support as they did previous Daz figures. I still have my PC membership for now. I’ll see how many Poser compatible products are released in the next few weeks or so and then decide if it’s still worth it to me.

On average, I make about ten purchases a year at RDNA. I’ve made twelve already this year. I’ve been purchasing more at Rendo, too. I’ve bought a little at DAZ, but I used to do the bulk of my shopping there. So yeah, I do feel rather left out in the cold.

Off topic but I find it funny how the new forum software tells me when a post has been omitted.

Not sure if I like it like that…yet. May grow on me.

mostly i buy older stuff i didn’t get when it first came out, critters, vehicles, not much clothing anymore

dante, are you even suppose to be here today?

With all the kool new features in Studio, i still find it a nightmare to work with, and it still does not have some of the core features i rely on in Poser

Good one LycanthropeX…

Snooch to the Nooch!

One thing everyone needs to remember is it all trickles down to individual PA’s/Vendor’s, and what they want to support.  Yes, it does seem unfortunate that it seems DAZ PA’s are lessening their production aimed towards Poser use.  Or, is it that DAZ is lessening their acceptance of the more Poser friendly submissions?

We have all seen this great divide coming for years, and in the recent years it has become more apparent and prevalent.  I feel bad for content creators, and end-users alike.  This is even difficult on freebie creators as well, and I suspect, eventually in the coming years one will have to pick one platform or the other.  So far I am still using both, but I only have Poser 3, 4, and 6 (and a very crippled Poser Debut), so I don’t think I am feeling the dissociation as much as recent build Poser users.

We are all still brothers and sisters united by these two programs only soon (but not DAZ soon) to become very distant cousins.

I have Poser 2010 and Poser 9

I’d really like to get Poser 2012

Lots of good deals for it on ebay and amazon all the time. One for $185 on ebay right now.

I was hoping to get it how I get most of my software, win it in a contest

Ahhh ok lol. If only we were all that lucky :p

lucky? I bust my backside to win contests, its more work than people think

Ok, let me rephrase it then…. If only we were all that talented. Better? lol

lol better

but really i think anyone can do what i do
