Now,,, this snapped my head up. Poserlight is gone.  I wonder how good the gallery will look  this fall..

poser has shadows for years now. yet more then 30% renders in the gallery are without shadows.

how will the gallery look? we will see. it will be funny if someone will open a thread and will ask what are shadows.   he he he he he

I'm really curious as what people will do with these new features. I think part of the reason many users have avoided shadows is because they can be tricky to control. You need extra fill lights or IBL, and then you need to decide where to put them and whether they should have shadows, too, etc. For complex scenes, that can be a royal pain in the rear.

With the new global illumination features, lighting a scene with shadows enabled will be much more straightforward, so people might actually start using them more.
