New question:

• Poser offers a lot of channels (like Specular, Bump etc) to be filled in by various nodes

• Pose2Lux offers lists of material types, some of them take some channels from Poser to produce the material definitions as required by LuxRender

and now I'd like to find out (preferrably in some detail) which P2L material type combines which Poser channels in which way to get a specific LuxRender result.

What is the way to find out? There is no manual (yet) defining all the P2L material types in detail, and I have not found other resources too. I do hope I don't have to go the experimental road to find out.

In the meantime I found that most Gems do not take any Poser channel into account (Rubies are deep red whatever you tell Poser), that Basic Matte takes the Color / Diffuse channel but Glossy ignores the Poser color but takes the Specular instead. But what are the differences between the fice types of Matte (or Glossy) offered.

And so on. Where can I find the (build in) definitions?

Thanks in advance.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
