I'm not talking about new materials. He doesn't know how to use the ones that are there.

Look - here is a render I just did. I did this using LuxPose as it is right now. All I did was go into the Poser material room and set the specular really high and broad. You get nice soft metals and they can be any color you want.

And this is without even implementing metals in LuxPose yet. This is just using the Glossy material. If you know how materials work, this stuff is trivial in Lux.

When I start actually using the Lux "metal" shader that it has, this will get even more impressive.

I'll provide probably a thousand preset materials, none of which involve hacking Lux.

[Edit] I only rendered for 2 minutes exactly, so it's not a completely clean image yet.
