Yes, it would be killer if Poser could adapt real time normal mapping in it's preview window,.

 

.. would it really?..initially I thought it pretty cool that Poser might have real-time bump effects,but that's purely from a gimmicky point of view,in practice I can't think of any good reason to have it,& I can't think of any occasion where a real-time bump preview would be of any benefit.sure it might look cool in the preview window but how often does one render using the preview engine?

I agree with Baggins..stick with greyscale bumps & displacement where you have much more control.
