No problem. Poser is meant to make you happy, not angry. :-)Just let me add this:
For GC to actually "work", three things have to come together:
Your monitor. If the calibration is off, GC will look off, too.
Your lights: Forget about "non-GC" lights. GC renders need a lot less light, that's why simply switching GC on without adjusting the lights, won't work. The advantage is that a bright GC render won't "burn out" the highlights as easily as a bright non-GC render.
Your shaders. Non-GC textures were usually "pre-brightened" to look OK.
You either need to adjust the textures directly or add a HSV node to crank up texture strenght to 1.05 or 1.10 to compensate.
Attached are some basic lights I created for GC-renders. Perhaps they can help.
But as I said, no need to change your workflow if you're happy with what youre doing.
I'm still using 3rd Gen DAZ meshes because I like the way they are designed much better than any newer mesh.
