I will also be posting this on the Poser forum because I am not sure where the weak link is.  I start of by creating an image in Poser 9, exporting it as an .obj into Bryce, add a few bits and pieces and then export it into Photoshop CS5.  The quality at this stage is pretty poor and if you zoom in a little you can see it is surrounded by artifacts.  Is there anywhere along the change I could have increased the resolution so that the quality is  better?  Many thanks

I had a similar problem, (I think) importing a human character in .obj format from Blender to Bryce, and the complete scene then into PhotoShop. I found a great improvement by importing the .obj file into Daz Studio 4 and then exporting directly into Bryce. Why this should work, I have no idea... Perhaps someone wjth more than my limited experience could add some enlightenment?

Many thanks Karl.  I had thought about using the fine setting but thought it might dramatically increase the renderoing time.  Thank you for getting back to me

Hi Jack Casement

No problem it will make your rendering time longer because the quality will be improved lights are probably the worst offenders of slow rendering in super fine but the results are much better.

Cheers

Karl

Yes, that is correct...it constitutes the trade-off. Besides lights, there are many materials types...such as glass, mirrors and volume materials that will also contribute to long render times.
