You mean they got rid of it?  I use it only when I want to render something that doesn't require raytracing or displacement maps.  They probably figured that Poser4 was dead and anything connected to it would be gone by this version.

well, yeah, at least i couldn't find it any more. it was hands down the fastest way to quick-check the scene and shadows before it gets really time consuming. can we have it back, please? pretty please? :)

It was listed in the Readme

it said:
Due to fundamental architectural changes in Poser 8 that have removed legacy code, and improved overall performance in many areas across the application, the old Poser 4 renderer and automatic RSR Library thumbnail conversion to PNG has been discontinued.

so i imagine the chance of getting it back are pretty much nil.
