Poser is perfect for creating 3D character art and animation. For nearly 20 years, artists, hobbyists, illustrators, and animators have been getting creative with Poser. Poser includes over 5GB of 3D figures and content to get you started. Pose figures, add hair and clothing, props, lights, and cameras to build 3D scenes. Render photorealistic and cartoon style images and video for web, print, and film. What will you create?

Animation
- Animation palette: Fixed case where deleting objects would cause instability upon changing view.
- Now preserving light color and intensity keyframe values again upon opening document.
Preview Rendering
- Fixed case where closing scene with Enhance multilayer transparency enabled would cause instability.
Final Rendering
- FireFly: Improved stability of rendering image sequences in a separate process.
- FireFly: Fixed rendering of removed back faces when depth map shadows are on.
Figure Creation
- Morphing tool Create mode: Fixed a problem with morph mirroring when deltas along welded body part seams were not in sync.
- Enabled spawning of morph targets from simulation results on unimesh skinned figures.
Library
- Restored ability to add compound figure to library (OS X only).
Import/Export
- Fixed a case where importing 3DS files resulted in material color and name inconsistencies.
Installation
- Download Manager: Fixed case where downloaded files were deleted, instead of moved, after changing location for downloaded files.
