please do use the !Download Fix! menu entry to acces the downloads directly, as the download manager on my site tends to corrupts the files :(
Is under investigation with the supplier.

Gamma Correction in Poser refers to: Poser Pro 2010, 2012 and 2014 as well as Poser 10. It's not available in Poser 9, 8 or before.

The Poser approach is
 - to apply anti-CG to images/maps and to color swatches
 - to render
 - to apply GC to the resulting image
while traditionally (Photoshop, LuxRender), only the last step is performed. As a result, simply stated, Poser-GC mainly affects (softens) the results of lighting, shadowing and shading while leaving the main coloring intact. As a side effect, it distorts some elaborated materials like turning Vickys standard HiRes materials into the pale fulltime smoker zombie look. It also forces one to pay explicit attention to the settings on transparancy maps, bump maps, etc.

What exactly have you found to be different? Perhaps it's possible to attach an image to illustrate.

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

visit www.aRtBeeWeb.nl (works) or Missing Manuals (tutorials & reviews) - both need an update though
