Quote - BB you need a marketing and PR department.

Working on it. I switched to consulting a year ago. I have been over-worked ever since. I have a project that has finally finished, and I'm not filling in the remaining time with a new contract. Instead I'm working on graphics.

Actually I'm interested in charging way more than that :)

Quote - Is there anything completely unique about the Poser material nodes that would prevent your core functionality from being re-engineered into a different shader system?

Well there might be some things that are harder or easier, but I could probably do it in any 3D product. It's not that hard really, in an objective sense. There is some excruciating cleverness in what I did and you have to hold a lot of stuff in your head simultaneously to understand how it works, but I could replicate it using many different technologies. As well, if I could just program the damn thing straight up instead of having to express it as a shader, it would be very easy to embed in any software application.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
