Not a very good test. You need to readjust material settings in PZ3's ported from P4 to P5. Firefly uses shader nodes, whereas P4 uses only 3 maps. You'll have to tweak the materials parameters to give Firefly a fair shake. It doesn't handle reflection, refraction, transparency/opacity, or ambience the same way. The Materials Room is easy to learn, but you need to take a bit of time to consider the differences between how P5's firefly and Poser 4's phong renderer handle things. I'll be looking forward to seeing this when you've gotten more experience under your belt. Good to see you're already learning, though! Paul
