I'm with Questor on the quality of renders under 3Delight. I did some comparison shots between Poser 3 (yeah, I know... it's seriously outclassed...), D|S and Bryce 5. Bryce was hands down the best, but P3 still did a good job on a few of the things I did. I've notcied striping on a few models as well (namely MayaDoll), and some props don't render as smoothly either; Caleb's Puzzle Cube is a good example - in D|S, I can actually see the individual parts that make up the box.

I hated the interface too, until I figured out that I can group all the tags together in one window so I can see what I'm doing. Still, it would be nice to be able to define my window size and not have to hope I get all of what I want when I render (or use render to disk, which I use almost all of the time). I also can't use direct manipulation (maybe my POS puter's too slow to realize what I'm trying to do), so I have to manually select everything and painstakingly move everything with the dials - which I don't mind doing when fine tuning, but I shouldn't have to use all the dials just to move my figure into a position I want to work on.

Now if only I could pose figures and not have the hair wander off somewhere in the distance...
