I caught a free copy of Shade 10 on July 4th, cause…well, it was free

Don’t know much about it, but seems it can Model, Animate, Render.  Here is a link: http://mirye.net/shade-10-new-features

Anyone ever use it, or know anything about it?  Since it seemed Carrara or Blender-like since you can model and animate, I wanted to ask over here, as you guys seem to have experience with many software.

(...haven’t been around lately, as I can’t fathom this Forum, which does not sort in “last posted” order…drives me crazy.  Livin’ over at Rendo, and working on a Poser-based animation)

Chikako is the Shade expert.
I got a free copy early on in my 3D life and had issues with their support so ditched it before finding out much I am afraid, do not go by that though, I was inexperienced.

Hmmmm…
I’ve heard it imports Poser well.
Anyone know if it plays well with Daz/Genesis?
I also hear that while it renders blazingly fast, animation is kind of wonky.
I also would like to know of anyone who has hands on experience.
