I have fiddled with the IBL shade bias settings blah blah and AO settings for this scene, but I cannot get rid of the annoying blue tint on the figure, nevermind the lousy shadows.

I am using Poser Pro 2012 64-bit with hardware acceleration switched on.

The clothes are using simple material settings, because this is an anime figure.  I have not applied any toon cel shader.  The rest of the material settings are default settings for the Cy-CO figure by Shukky.

Please tell me how what I should be doing right ! Thanks in advance.

Poser9 or 2012; I would use a HDR image instead of IBL. I would turn off AO and turn IDL on. Scatter off...

Make sure there is no tint on the imagemap of IBL

Pre Poser9 versions; Shadows off on IBL. AO attached to a mainlight with shadows on. Perhaps a second rimlight or a specular only light.
