I also posted this in the Poser Forum.

Anyhow.. when I render one of my props using the Poser4 Rendering Engine it renders out fine. Then I render it in FireFly in Poser 7 and I get an all black prop and square shadows (see image). I mean, WTF? LOL

Anyone know what may be causing this? I checked my model and can't seem to find anything wrong with it. Some of my models are getting this in FireFly and others aren't and I am pretty consistent in how I create and edit my models so I am pretty baffled at the cause here (and the remedy) ;o)

Any ideas and help are greatly appreciated. I am trying to make some of my older (P4) packages P7 and FireFly friendly.

Thanks,

Try adding a figure to the scene. I suspect the prop is quite small, and Firefly hiccups when the total scene is too small.

Well I'll be damned if that wasn't the problem.

Thanks SVDL. At least now I can relax that it isn't a problem with my models hehe.

Thanks again!

I am tempted to say the issue is the size of the shadowmap, resulting in a minimum pixel shadow with very tiny objects . This could be verified by looking at the shadow camera , and zooming it to cover only the prop.

It shouldnt appear with raytraced shadows selected .
