Pose Builder/Ultimate Pose Mixer - Comments?

Ultimate Pose Mixer | Daz 3D

Pose Builder for Genesis 3 and 8 | Daz 3D

Any practical experience and constructive comments about these somewhat older products? I bought the latter yesterday while picking up some useful-looking utilities on sale. (On closer inspection, I found that I had Pose Mixer from my early days with Daz and forgot that I had it.)

My initial testing of Pose Builder is mixed; for no immediately obvious reason, it can't find the related .duf file from a given .png for many pose sets. (The product asks you to identify the .png file for a pose to use in a given spot and then is supposed to identify the related .duf file, which it does successfully for some pose sets and not others.) Thoughts on that would be appreciated. I've already inspected the location (the files are there), checked the log (no errors or other reference to the problem files) and read existing product threads (which occasionally mention this problem but are primarily focused on older pre-G3 versions of the product). It seems like a good idea and I want to give it a fair chance.

Thanks!
