Quote - Looking for setting fixes in poserpro2012 to solve ugly screen problem.

Ok, so any ideas on how I can make some setting changes to get my preview screen looking pretty again and to fix those glassy eyes?

I would agree with basic wiz on this one when it comes to rendering.  From what I can tell Gamma is washing alot of the color out in the rendering.  Definitely make sure your monitor is actually displaying colors correctly.

The Poser 2012 preview lighting also looks different. I'm almost willing to say that one of the lights is malfunctioning. One way to check is to copy the cordinates for the light and then move the light to see if the light becomes brighter.  There just seems to be way too much shadow in that Poser 2012 render for the light to be working properly.  Sometimes the lighting in Poser doesn't function the way that it should and moving the bad light causes it to shine properly.  I don't know why it happens, I just know that I had that issue with Poser Pro 2010.

if all else fails or "try it first" then change the Preview Drawing (in the Display Menu) to SreeD Software.  It won't help your rendering issues but it will definitely help your preview issues.
