Quote - Well, you mentioned no mo-cap.  Are you an animator?  The reason I'm asking is because you may already have heard about the uncanny valley.

As for AO.  It needs to be tweaked according to your model's material settings.  Some materials look better with AO.

Yes.  Some creations are never finished for some of us.

I am not a professional animator, no. I am just a novice who bought Poser 8 a year ago, and I am learning as I go. I am acutely aware that AO needs to be tweeked. I am still messing with it. I have noticed that a lot of the conforming clothing and such doesn't look right in AO.

And I have 1300 renders that I keep looking at and thinking "I should have done this... I should have done that..."

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
