Anyone have Poser 14 yet?

I see its for sale. They took out the cloth room, and some other stuff has changed, not sure if for the good. To me it seems this new release is more of a stepping stone to future changes.

  • I haven't, but I would certainly like to.  I still use Poser Pro 2014 because I had purchased a lot of materials from Little Design that only work in that version.

    As usual, there's a free 21-day trial so you can test it out for yourself. Poser versions can co-exist, so no problems with installing it alongside an earlier version. Upgrade is $100.

    You'll like it if you...

    - want the latest versions of Blender's Cycles render engine (in Poser, called SuperFly) and Intel OIDN de-noising

    - often add backgrounds in your scenes, which is now much easier

    - use the Materials Room a lot, and could use some easier workflows and fixes

    - export FBX and Collada from scenes

    - use Tkinter to make graphical user-interfaces for Python scripts

    - want Poser to support the new Intel ARC graphic-cards. 

    - don't care about using the (now removed) Cloth Room

    Have they finally started making new, compelling content to rival DAZ3D?

    thats the thing, right? It usually says, "and 2 gig of content", or some such, but not really showing what it is. Most is still from Poser 5 or something. 
    Cant remember what store, I think it was connected with Poser,  but they had several characters that worked in Poser that were really nice.

    From what I've seen Poser 14 looks to be the last gasp. Everyone had such high hopes that Bondware would turn Poser's fortunes around, but nothing could be farther from the truth.

    No cloth room?  Darn it.  How do we handle dynamic clothing?

    I never got past Poser 11; Genesis 2 was my go-to figure via the DSON importer, which was not updated with modern python scripts, so I never upgraded Poser.  I with DAZ had open-sourced th eimporter as they did with some of the other software bridges...
