Hi CaptainMark
Thanks for the hint about Shadow Map Size, I didn't know that. I'll go and try that out right now!
And I render at 1600 by 900, sometimes bigger, because after experimenting with it, I found that is was the best trade off for getting quality and rendering speed.
Firefly is still too slow even at the smaller size and when shown full screen on my computer the small rendered videos don't look as good as the preview videos rendered at a larger size.
I some times output the video from poser at full HD, 1920 by 1080 and then produce the finished video from Primiere at the same quality.
They really looks fantastic when I show them on my HD TV, just as good as the commercial stuff.
Now I'm experimenting with 3D video as well, and even there the Preview Render does a good job.
It all really comes down to personal taste and what you are after, I'm trying to produce some funny (in my opinion) videos that I can show my friends and eventually post on YouTube.
I except the limitations of Poser's Preview Render as the price I have to pay for not having a main frame computer the size of my garage. LOL
Anyway thanks again for the shadows tip.
Mike
If you shoot a mime, do you need a silencer?
