I understand and it makes sense. What is most important to me I think is to find out if we will be sticking with this version for a while now... before I decide on how much time to commit to creating or altering content specifically for P12. :)The thing with highlights in Poser 12 is that the new version of Superfly, following some advancements in Blender's Cycles, is more mathematically accurate with Roughness calculations (from what I understand). Where before there was a range of roughness that you could barely define (it looked like either too much or too little), now you can define the increments more correctly.
Sadly it was a matter of chosing between breaking some older content or leaving the renderer more limited and incorrect. For me, improvement is always the right choice.
The good news is that it's not everything - just things that were unfortunate enough to have been set as too much instead of too little LMAO! We really couldn't tell before, that's why I have a bunch of freebies with corrected materials for my products.
