Can someone more experienced than I am with Firefly renders and P5-P6 help me, please? I'll try to attach two comparison renders of the exact same scene rendered first with the default Firefly Production Quality settings in P5, and then with the second-highest default settings in P6. Notice the difference in the water reflections, especially in front of the frog log - in P5 the reflections look like water should, but in P6 they don't. Any tips?

Refractions are also messed up in Poser 6. I sent an email to Curious Labs and they said there is a bug in Poser 6 that messes them up and that the upcomning service release will fix it. So let's just cross our fingers and hope it does. Enclosed is an example of how Poser 6 messes up refractions:

And how it should look, as rendered in Poser 5. Notice how there are no interferance patterns in this one.

Yep! That's what shows in my P6 render #2 above - interference patterns (also noteable towards the upper center of the scene). Looking forward to the SR fix.
