bobbystahr, Thank you for your recommendation, but I don't want to break the objects/figures up into their material zones.  I want to break them up into individual parts.  As an example, say I import a Poser figure into Bryce and the figure is washing dishes.  With individual  parts, I can assign all the finger parts and both hands a different bump map and greater specularity to simulate wet hands while leaving the  rest of the body "dry".  But if the body is fused as one material group, the figure's going to have to be all wet, or all dry.  Unless I make a specularity map, but that's more work.  I think I'll try saving the figure as "unwelded" from Poser and see if Bryce 5 does anything different.

I think that can be done in PoseRay as well...if you send me a test figure I could see if I can make it do that and send/post a tute here on how...
bstar@mts.net   is the best place to send it if it's under 10M, or you could post it to freestuff and as the Mod I could dl and delete it from there unles that breaks rules.. ...

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again
