Tried experimenting a little more, didn't think I made much in the way of improvements though.

wint, for optically accurate gold renders, we may await the debut of bill's metal shader pak. given the interest shown here, one would suggest including it (even if unfinished) in the next poser release (default runtime, procedurals) in order to obviate any marketplace issues.

p.s. somebody has got a gold sphere which one might compare to our renders, and some guy in ethiopia said he had an ark. when asked if we might see it, he went into his building and did something for a while. then he came out and averred that the ark was still extant, but wouldn't let us see it. :crying:
