While it is good to have poser support in Carrara 5 I been a long time user of Poser and I have beta test it, I don't think Poser is the ideal character animation solution for Carrara. Carrara should have much better native character animation tools and not depend on Poser to create character animations. Poser has not made any major advances in character animation from version 3. The Dynamic hair an clothing are very slow and buggy by today standards. I have seen better character animation tools in Project Messiah. Another problem with Poser is that all the characters are not SDS so your mesh is very heavy and it becomes rediculous to animate more than one character in a scene. It is wonderful for posing figures and do single frame renders they do look beautiful but animation wise its best to animate in Messiah.
So I would not wish for Eovia to waste money buying Poser from e-Frontiers. The money would be better spend if they develop better character animation tools within Carrara.
