Quote - @Iceboy instead of beating your head against the wall on this issue, and since your Focus seem to be getting better renders, perhaps it is time for you to just invest in one of the MANY alternatives  to rendering directly within poser.

I have been using poser since "Fractal Design's Poser2"
and I can Say that I never Did What Iwould call a final render within poser itself.
 it was first Meta C's Bryce 2 and so on and so on up until today where where I am using C4D + Vray or the base version of Vue depending on the look I want.

Vue has a low cost option
the new Pose2LuX  seems to be coming along nicely
(Congrats  in order there!!!)

I dont see the point of trying to browbeat SM into giving poser some vray+SSS, quality ray tracer.

The harsh reality of it is
that if you truly want to Achieve exactly what you want with CG
you will have to deploy MORE than ONE program to do so
or be willing to compromise  on your desired results.
and this is not just a Low end "hobbiest " Dilemma

There is a reason why MAYA owners are still buying Zbrush
or Motionbuilder
There is a reason  Why us C4D Owners have Swallowed hard and Sprung for RealFlow or Vray

and trust me there are plenty of threads at CG talk Demanding better modeling tools for C4D along with other gripes about C4D's Shortcomings yet MAXON just reported its most
profitable year ever just as MODO continues to sell quite well
to C4D users.

thanks for this post.  

i actually  was not hoping for a Vray renderer.they spend years working on that.and it needs to be production prooven.  i am hoping for a simple raytracer with simple code . since poser users use somewhere 2 textures for a figure this shouldnt be a problem IMO.
