I have some times found that view 5 is better for really complex poser scenes as far as rendering goes, and if oyu have the lighting addon light tune you can have so much more controll over the render than in poser as far as lighting and shadow are concerned. View 5 does seem to taks a while to import the figers but it seems fine with larger textures too. dont know if this helps. ivew just renderd a scene with mic 3 and v3 along witl a crow a bunch of props and clothes and hair and it did it fine, reducing the bucket size in the render settings helps - i tend to render at 2000 wide by what ever deep at 300dpi and dont often run in t problems with p6. ( touch wood....lots and lots of it!!!!)
