Quote - I want all those features too, but the learning curve is too steep. Ideally smith micro should make it so as soon as you turn on IDL, it takes your existing scene and just enhances it with little to no effort from the user. That would make it a powerful solution since you don't have to mess around with nodes for days on end.

 

Do you know of any software that does that? I'm sure there are several users around here who would like to know of such an application. 

While poser's learning curve is steep, you can't expect it to contain features that don't exist in even the most expensive packages. There are always nodes that have to be tweaked to some degree because even the most advanced plug-ins and presets can't know what your scene is going to consist of. No renderer can be expected to produce perfect results without some level of postwork. It just doesn't happen, and outside of video games, everything is postworked 99% of the time.
