Well, erm, people have been noticing this issue from days and there's not even been a "we'll look into it" or a repsonse to any of our e-mails on the subject that I'm aware of (and it's a couple of days since I first e-mailed them, at least). There's no sign of them reacting fast on this so far... I suppose "fast" may be down to definition (on a geological scale almost anything is fast). I'm dissapointed, because on the whole I've been positive about Poser 5, but desperately need some of the fixes that SR4 supposedly provides (like stable animaiton rendering). However, I can't allow the quality of my renders to drop through the floor (by losing shadows) just in order to have them render without crashing and manually being resumed. Poor show :( More than ever I'm wishing DAZ good luck in developing DAZ Studio!
