Well, OK, I think I got the Lux not running for me problem solved. I was clogging it down, i bet. I was trying to render Genesis with Epic Wings set at "ice" and the figure had three Geometic Capsules (or whatever they're called), one with "sweat," one with "hair" and one with Jepe's Body Jewels. Lux just couldn't load it on my machine. Right now, as a simple test, I'm using Lux 1.1 and a Genesis figure, and it's going along well. Looks good after just a few minutes.
