Hi there! I use Poser figures a lot in Vue 4 and Vue 4 Pro, and there are definitely some tricks and tips to getting them to look good. The link shows a quick example of what to do regarding lighting and textures. As far as the bump maps are concerned, it depends on the Poser figure you're bringing in. Some bump maps actually come in pretty well, others not so well. As an example, the Millenium Dragon bump maps usually come into Vue/Vue Pro at -.008 or something like that. Just play with the bump gain dial and do test renders to see how high you want it. 1.0 will be VERY high. There is no "absolute" rule of thumb when it comes to adjusting the bump maps, I do it by experimenting. Hope this helps!
