Is this a Poser rendering ?

It is great looks better than my Poser Renders

Could be... it does have some of the typical signs you get in Poser renders like artifacts in the shadows, muddy GI and indistinct light gradients. So either it's a Poser render or a render done in something else with ugly quality settings.

Now I would not call it by any means an Ugly quality render... If you want 3DMax or Lightwave 4D or something in one of these hight class render softwear then Poser will not give it but for it's cost and maybe more important computer needs it dose an great job

Yes, this is a Poser Rendering.

2 lights from windows 1 IBL 1 BB Sphere

Rendered with Firefly.

"artifacts in the shadows" Yes, i think that increasing render settings may be there is a way to fix them. I hope in a better GPU Render Engine in next Poser 2015

I thought it looked like it was rendered with either Cinema4d or Octane but I could be (and have frequently been pointed out as) wrong

Really nice work by the way and thank you for the tip Xpdev! Copied your suggestions to my own rendering notes.

follow me.

BB Sphere has HSV value Set to 84 IBL light is set to 84

try a render on medium resolution, you'll see a lot of artifacts in the shadows.

To fix them look at Firefly IDL setting (bounces, Cache ecc.) , do your test step by step. Play with color light too.

I hope will help

it looks great! there are some IC artifacts in ceiling lampshades. eliminate those by not using IC

decrease IDL intensity to 0.8

increase IDL bounces to 16

may be slow, but will look even less like poser render.

PP2016 no use GPU renderer but handles IDL bounces better, w/no IC artifacts. BB rendered similar scene in PP2016. time ~3-5 hrs IIRC.

Thanks Miss Nancy

I'll try with setting you seggest.

I have to say, to me, it's not the lighting or render quality which gives it away as a "Poser" rendering. It's the models. No offense to whomever made those props, but in this realistic light, with these materials, they do look a little "soft", and fake. Almost like a dollhouse furniture. I'm sure at a distance, with characters in the scene, they would serve their purpose well, but for realism in a scene like this, I would be looking for more detailed props.

I also think the floor is a little too glossy for wood (if it's supposed to be wood). Even the highest polished wood floors would have some fresnel reflectivity, and appear more blurry, with some bump involved. All the other materials look ok, and the lighting is good. I think using more realistic models would really make this a great render.
