@maxx.... since you don't seem to mind postworking out the bad joints, I'll send you the 1800 frames I now have rendered so you can fix the elbow joint problems for me:) I never did postwork on an image in my life. I don't even create stills, and I'm not arguing against the weight maps or such things. I recently did a 20 second animation for a TV commercial using DAZ models. I know nothing about painting over characters. Blasphemy! ;-) And in fairness. Firefly either is or is based around Tempust, the renderer in Pixels3d. It features a form of IBL, and Ambient Occlusion. Well, Stewer would know more than I, since he uses Pixels3D, but I believe the form of IBL it uses is the same as the one that's in Poser 5 right now. Probelight, which is a material node property that allows you to input data from HDR images into the object's material. If you use it, however, it doesn't support other lights in the scene or recognize shadows.
