i've played around with poser for about a year now, but have only recently started to work with it in earnest. as i understand it, the poser 5 renderer is supposed to be better than the poser 4 version. but i've been having a couple of problems with it. 1. when rendering a figure with a more complicated hairstyle (like morning mane), the program completely locks up. i have a pentium iii 800 and 512 mg of ram. i end up having to revert to the poser 4 renderer. 2. the neck area on any figure, using any texture, looks very mottled and ugly, usually with little green blotches, using the firefly engine. it looks especially bad since the face texture right above it renders fine. attached is a comparison: firefly at the top, poser 4 at the bottom (the green blotches aren't so obvious in this one). anyone have similar problems, and is there a cure? thanx.
