:-P Nobody likes a gloater, y'know. ;-) I was really happy at first. It really did speed Poser 5 up amazingly. Then I noticed @#$% shadows. Or lack thereof. They can't have tested this very well. And they had a lot of nerve, telling us that the shadow map thing would only show up in certain unusual situations. I have Poser installed in the default directory - which I allowed it to do even though it's more of a pain for me, because I thought it would result in fewer problems - and I'm having the problem. Grrrr. I bet they never tested it with anything other than the default lighting.
