Berserga, I have just spent two days thrashing thru Poser5 because I did not find Ronstuff's uncovering, which is posted on that other forum with doublehelix in the name. Poser5+Firefly is indeed in trouble because of math/decimal places.

This script is needed.

I just finished taking a scene with one light, one character with texture and scaling it as follows: seclect body on character, hit the scale dial. I kicked it from 100 to 1000. The only other thing I scaled up was the ground plane.

Result:
DRAMATICALLY BETTER RENDER TIME
RELIEF FROM ARTIFACTS due to shadows in animation

I did NOT find that my light needed to be scaled in any way, either by distance, intensity, etc. That is only my experience after one experiment.

I DID have to reanimate because of camera keyframes, was in a hurry so did not try to "scale" the camera/animation, if that even makes sense as a concept.

This is a topic whose time has come back around.
