   I seem to be having a lot of problems with Interposer...haven't used it for almost a year. I now remember that there were issues with Poser 8 and 2010. I have updated to the latest version of the plugin, but have a few questions:

   What are the latest models I can use? Poser 7?

   Is it impossible to make a face room morph "stick" or should I be able to simply save the figure and import that saved figure into Interposer with the correct head? Is there a better work around for getting my unique head on the character?

   In general, does it seem Interposer will soon support the newer versions of poser, or should we plan on working with only certain versions for a while? (and is that Poser 7 or earlier?)

   Thanks!

   Poser 7. The updates to the joint system are complex and time/ability to devote to it has been greatly reduced now that I am working full time as well.

   When you import a Poser figure and the head does not move with the rest of the body, this is a result of using "Apply to Figure" or "Apply Shape Only" in Poser's Face room. This replaces the original head geometry with custom geometry - which InterPoser Pro can not handle currently. A solution to this is to "Spawn a Morph Target" instead. This will create a single morph dial on the Head bodypart for the morph settings in the Face room, but retains the original head geometry.

   Poser has been around for a very long time (over 15 years) and has always had a sizeable development team. InterPoser Pro is the work of just me since 2006 with a very large amount of trial-and-error, reverse engineering, and guesswork. Unfortunately, the economic downturn over the past three years hit my small business quickly and hard. While I've been able to fix the software, add a few small (and not so small) features, and keep it working in newer Cinema 4D releases, it has been difficult to find the time and effort required to invest in supporting some of the newer features of Poser (7 and later). My time estimate for implementing the new joint system under the current circumstances if I started right away would be at least three months, maybe six.
