I no longer buy products designed for Poser 4, because it eats up too much of my time optimizing them for use in Poser 6. If I see "for Poser 4+", I pass it on by like it's contageous, no matter how appealing I may find it. It just eats up too much of my time to optimize it properly. Well, I make all my stuff in Poser 6. But I try to make it reasonably Poser 4 compliant as well, because there ARE a lot of people out there that use Poser 4, Pro Pack and Artist. Oh and don't forget Daz Studio - I LOVE and ADORE the material room, and usually slip in as many nodes and stuff as I can get away with, then.. well the Poser 4 people must just live with the fact that while it'll work it won't look quite as spiffy... Just yesterday I had a problem with some times in Poser 6 - unless I cranked the sampling rate to something where my (reasonably new and powerful) computer just looked at me and belched... - then today I simply made a texture map. And whaddayaknow.. it looks much better because now the tiles are tils with proper mortar and stuff. OF COURSE it also means that the texture map takes up memory, probably more than a procedural texture, but now it's actually useable in all Poser versions as well as Daz Studio, something it wouldn'thave been, had I used a procedural shader. I did use a shader to give an included mirror proper reflection, that's one of the times where P4 users are SOL.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
