Playing with some daz animals, it appears the issue is not as prominent, but I am thinking that might be due to the nature of this particular animals texture...not sure....

One other thing I thought I would try is changing the scale settings in Vue 8.5i to .1 = 1 vue unit, like previous versions are set. This actually fixed the issues I was having because I no longer have to shrink imported objects down so much, nor scale them up too much. It's a better setting IMO. It just works better, and I am not experiencing any problems with atmospheres or other textures. This isn't really a fix I guess, but another work-around.
