Well, I know this much.......I'm done purchasing products that have no material preview. This results in constant, unnecessary rendering just to SEE what it is you're loading onto the stage. Or the ridiculously slow Raytrace Preview open at all times.

I'm sadly guilty of this simply because I wanna use Superfly's full power - and the Cycles root shows as white in the preview window. To go around this with my products, have the Firefly renderer selected while you're working and the preview window will pick up the Poser root instead, textures will show in the preview, change to Superfly only when you're about to render.

I know I can preview with Firefly render selected, but I'm not going to select things like makeup and lip color based on a FIREFLY preview that I intend to render in Superfly.

That's nothing really that a vendor can do about that if they want to use a Cycles Root - it's a Poser flaw, it doesn't preview Cycles root materials.

And, if a vendor chooses to use the Cycles root materials I will simply bypass those products.

Not everyone has a beefy, top of the line, expensive video card in their machine that allows them to use the Cycles root materials effectively. I am one of them.
