It seems Superfly needs a whole lot of in depth knowledge to have good results. Only a few Poser users have actually proven, that Superfly gives more realistic looking results than Firefly. So, I'd go on rendering with firefly. If I needed to have top render quality in Poser, I'd better invest in OctaneRender.

I understand where you're coming from because I've already made that mistake, you believe the source of the problem is superfly is an inferior product. You will spend $400 on new render engine and find it doesn't solve the problem. Save your money and spend time understanding how to use the technology.

One different opinion and people get easiley snappy ;-) Is this about 3d software or am I on a religious cult site here? I can see why people are leaving Rendo.

I wasn't trying to be a troll but say if the motivation for choosing another render engine is that the other render engine will be somehow be simpler then that can lead to disappointment, each render engine has its problems and all path tracers share certain limitations. For example converting Poser materials will always require some work. No objection with other render engines and with Octane have been following how people use it with interest. I apologise if you felt jumped upon.
