@darquevision: I just loaded up Eepo, and you are correct that the expression files will reset all face morph dials to zero. Just checked the fc2 file to confirm. I see this often in pose files where dials that shouldn't be included in the pose are set to zero.

Quote - For those who are sad about the movie being different than the book

I am not.. I did not care much about any of the books and love the movies

So you didn't have any expectations of the movie > Quote - The way they made Riverdale

I thought it was beautiful too, as in the ring series. > Quote - The way they included the wood wizzard (the Brown) with his rabbits

Loved the brown wizard, with the bird poop in his beard.

I expected to love it and didn't. Way too violent for my taste, but the cgi was spectacular. How they did the halfling to wizard scaling in 3d impressed me.

Quote - Genesis victoria has less polys than v4. You're supposed to go up in geometry not down.

Huh? If the poly's are better placed, you need fewer, right?

I use both Poser and DS. I like some features of both and wish I could use one for everything.

But laurie, it's usually considered mean to tell someone to do something sensible like rtfm, lol.  

The only time I've rendered to avi is when I'm doing a quick seconds per frame video, and I usually don't render more than about 300 frames at a time. If I'm doing anything more render intensive, I definitely use tif or png.

Dale B, great post with a lot of good advice.

Thanks, I'll try there too.

I often render to uncompressed avi. When I bring it into an editor it has transparency. I think the problems some have with avi is that they are using some compression algorithm. Be aware that uncompressed avi creates huge files so you need a lot of free disk space.

Thanks. I started with Pure Render Vol2 by Yanelis at RDNA and made some adjustments. An IBL and two infinites. Attached is a screen-capture of my render settings -- Since I wanted a quick, small render I didn't max out the settings.

Glad you figured it out -- it never occurred to me that it might be render dimensions, lol.
