Funny thing is that ambient occlusion was designed to simulate outdoor lighting but most of the AO stuff I'm seeing from Poser 6 is used in indoors - and it just doesn't look right to me. I'm not that thrilled with either B5.5 or Poser 5/6. And how in the world Poser managed to take a Mac render system and make it 50% slower then the PC is just beyond me!
