Quote - those lux renders at rdna are fab IMVHO.  based on above discussions, one can feel confident that, in next few months, nobody need worry that anybody shall post an FF Render that could be confused with a lux render. 

 

I wouldn't say thats true entirely.. I've seen some very lackluster renders out of lux, just as I've seen some gawd awful poser renders.  I've even posted some (quite frankly not all that good renders) on DA and had comments asking if they were DAZ + reality.  

The tool is only part of it and LUX sint going to be miles ahead of firefly for every scene.  Though it may make higher quality results quite a bit more widely accessible.

To be honest, while a lot of the render are quite nice, I can say that I've actually been 'blown away' by many of the character renders(maybe a couple) I have looked at.  Even the environment ones seem like they are heavily reliant on the quality of their textures.
