Wow, can't agree with that. I will agree that dynamic hair needs to have the right material settings in order to look good—but once you've got that, it has twice the potential for realism as even the best transmapped hair (which I've pretty much given up on).

Quote - Poser's dynamic hair is terribly, terribly dated--I really think that an overhaul should be a priority for Poser 10.

There I can definitely agree. While I've tweaked materials to where I'm quite satisfied... I'm nowhere near satisfied with my ability to style dynamic hair. It's far too difficult to use.

Would you mind sharing your settings? Any material I've tried on dynamic hair has looked all right for fur, but has never looked soft enough for human hair--unless you go to the other extreme of "shampoo commercial" hair.
