Ok, I am up and going. I started up a test render, just to be sure all was in place, at low settings. I turned that off after three buckets and have now cranked up the settings. You can see the quite agressive render settings in the image above. The gi settings are:

scene = poser.Scene()
if (scene != None):
 settings = scene.CurrentFireFlyOptions()
 if (settings != None):
  settings.SetGIIntensity(1)
  settings.SetMaxSampleSize(20)
  settings.SetGINumBounces(3)
  settings.SetGINumSamples(64)

My system is:
AMD 3500+
4GIG RAM
twin Raptor drives in RAID-0
Windows XPPro 

This computer has five fans. I call it "Sikorski"

This will be a long render. Please anyone who thinks I have been settings post here so I can turn it off in the next few hours and reset. It is 8:47 PM here in Los Angles; I am enjoying the Angels DESTROYING the Yankees and will be up for a few hours. It's only the end of the third inning and the game has been on for an hour and forty-five minutes.

TemplarGFX, thanks for doing all the hard work, and for being generous to put it into the community. I am sure your Poser Cornell pz3 will be handy for all of us when GI is turned on for real later this year (we hope.)
