I'm just wonder if there is any way
you can make poserpro lights
compatible with lower versions of

poser.

Poser lights are exactly the same in Poser Pro and Poser 7 and (I believe) Poser 6. I can create a lightset in Poser Pro and load it in Poser 7 (I just did it, to make sure).

What differences are you referring to?

when I make a light in poser pro it looks totally different when someone

tries to use it in any other version.

In pro it looks like this

and in poser 7 and 6 it looks like this...

And I got no clue as of why :(

What gamma correction render setting did you use for the Poser Pro render? To do a direct comparison with a Poser 7 render this needs to be switched off.

It was switched off :( 

Just double checked by rendering again with the gamma
unticked.

Thank you for replying btw I appreciate it :)

That's okay... I thought I knew what it might be, but I was wrong.
My Poser Pro lights (in a render with GC switched off) look exactly the same in a Poser 7 render.
puzzled

(edit) - but I do feel you should be looking for other differences than the lights

Are you saying those are the same figure and texture set?

It's so hard to tell what is going on because you didn't complete the render, the point of view is different, etc. I'm trying to determine if you actually are reading the same color map, because it sure looks like you are not.

Meaning, I think you're not rendering the same content. Runtime lookups could be picking up different texture files (from different folders) that happen to have the same name. Lighting can produce some variations, but it cannot create different texture patterns out of thin air. Those look completely different to me.
 

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

It's the same character and texture set in those renders

Even if I render from a diff angle the light is still good on my end
and no matter from what angle she renders it looks like that.

I sent it to someone else with pro and they worked fine.

Sent it to someone running poser 6 and it came out like
in pose 7. over exposed.
