Ooh boy this "precalculating indirect light" sure takes its time. And I don't even know if it'll make any difference with the lightset I'm using, I just imported the scene I was working on in Poser 7 earlier today to do a comparison render. It's still precalculating... leaving little red dots all over the place, I assume it's a represenations of photons or whatever. Looks pretty funky L

Other than that, installation went well. I used the last option of the four (?) I think because I have my Poser all installed on their own harddisk away from the windoze install and all. Dunno if it made any difference than the default but I thought I'd try.

ETA Ah now it finished precalculating the red dots and went on to Rendering. My computer is now seriously lagging but the rendering has started ^_^ I suppose I should have set the number of threads and stuff like in Poser 7, but I was too eager and forgot about that so it's probably only utilizing one of my two cores at the moment. Oh well... it WORKS!

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
