Because people have different render styles. Yes, Superfly is cool for rendering and looks very nice but it take a long time. It does not have to be ultra realistic for ever artist . Poser 4's render engine can easily go through thousands of frames in poser very fast. I would just like to be able to make nice animation with poser in a short time. With today's hardware The Poser 4 render engine would be a beast with only one computer. Hey, I just like the style and if I could some how get it on Poser 2014 by way of python it would help me tell my stories faster.

Maybe you are just doing something wrong. You will get really fast renders if you use simple (P4-style) textures with "Physical Root" in Superfly.

I made a test: 4 penguines from Poser11 stock with adapted materials, two Spotlights and one Infinity Light: Rendertime 10 seconds (on a transparent background, 1400 x 1400)
