I've rendered countless pictures of "only props" in P7 - no SR, SR1, SR2. Never had any problems.

I haven't used V2 in ages, but I doubt it's a Poser problem. Probably a screwed up obj or something.

Does the "spear" go away when rendering, too?

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