Quote - Uh, no. A basic understanding of how the material room works is always a good thing.

I fully agree. You still want to understand why to set Diffuse_Value to less than 1 and why you only want to use white as your reflective colour for everything except metal surfaces. Particularly if you create content for others, but even if it's just for yourself, certain concepts are just essential to understand.

On that note, I do hope that the next version of Poser will automatically detect colour maps vs non-colour information and adjust gamma accordingly, so we have less of that "anaemic-hair" look... :biggrin:
