I have been importing my Poser figures into Vue for some time, but have done so NOT using the import Poser Shaders option. Right now I am doing some characters and was wondering if I should be importing the bump maps as well for a more realistic look? To me, I seem to get faster and better realism results in Poser using them all the time. Of course, I do tweak some of the mats in Vue, but I was not sure about this. I don't want to spend a lot of time making bumps and textures in Photoshop if they will not be of benefit in Vue.

Also, does anyone know if you still need to tweak as much for Poser mats inside Vue 8.4 as much as you did before? For example, the "green hulk" effect I have not seen in a while and doesn't seem like you need to adjust for that anymore.

Thanks for any advice or tips.
