Now Poser shares the home page of Aquarium Screen Saver, 2008-09-30
When I heard that a company with a techie name like Smith Micro was buying Poser, I hoped that what had been a fun, but fragmented program might at last be in good hands. No such luck. As noted in the title, Smith Micro does not bring much technology to the Poser table. It basically adds network rendering, which was needed, but at a hefty price, especially for those of us in the Art community who never intended to use Poser with a high end program like Maya. As noted in another review, they haven't done much for those guys either.
In its last release Poser 7 seemed like a mish-mash of modules each designed by a different person. The cloth room required a very different approach from the materials area and the hair and face modules had nothing in common with the rest. This made the Poser learning curve rather large. The program needed a more intuitive interface in these areas. As far as I can see, nothing much has changed. Poser Pro is essentially the same program as Poser 7. If you had issues with Poser 7, chances are the new bells and whistles presented here will not address any of them. Go the website, read the enhancements and check to see if any are really useful to you. BTW I have also had trouble updating my POSER 7 program using the SMITH MICRO webpage. They don't appear to recognize my serial number. Bad start in my book!!
