I want to create a scene with a building and 2 poser charcter. I might render it in bryce cos is more powerful than poser. Do you all render complex scenes in bryce too or did you use poser?

I render everything except WIP images and animations in Bryce - the quality of the render-engine is just way better than Poser's. Paul

Once you're good with Bryce it will be superior 90%+ of the time; until then, if you have the resources for it, I'd suggest trying the image in both. I've OCCASIONALLY gotten better results from Poser.

One thing to rember about Bryce, you will have to change the lights to a red or yellow to give the same look as Poser. But it does make great renders and it also has reflection.

My only problem is that poser skintones often end up washed out and gray looking. I've found that resetting to plain white and appling the texture by hand in the mat editor is the only way to get them to look good. Anyone have a less tedious workaround? not to mention the fiddly work of putting trans and bump maps back in. :) Although I've found that useing one of the grays (in the simple materials) with colored specularity as a base + textures does nice things.
