Quote - There is nothing built into Poser 5, 6, or 7 that will do gamma correction (GC) in one click. Only Poser Pro has built-in GC.

For the others you have several approaches.

Hi BaginsBill,  I've read your comments in other threads on Poser's lack of any proper gamma correction with great interest.  Excellent analysis as always!

I've tried to use your VSS system but with no luck - It hangs when I try to load it. (Following the instructions, of course.)  But, I could have gotten a bad download/unpacking so I'll try again later.  You don't note any problems with it and running multiple copies of Poser sharing runtimes, do you? (It's installed in both P6 and P7 versions on my machine atm because I was checking for runtime conflicts.)

Anyway, the gamma correction (or lack of it) is an obvious issue with Poser.  It wasn't until you had spelled it out that I realized why so many renders that should have turned out just fine were way too dark and trying to use something like an IBL/light to correct that will not always work effectively.  So, either it's too dark or washed out.  Bad either way.
