Subject: How do I turn off the "Wetlook" in the main editor window?

Hi All,

After some time I have come back to Poser Pro 2012 again. I have download the SR3.1 release for it.

I know that this is probably a really dumb question but in the normal posing window the lights are giving my V4 character's third party skin texture a highly reflective plastic "Wet look." And that's before any rendering is done and its annoying me. It didn't used to do this before the 3.1 update.

As far as I can remeber there was an easy way to switch this effect on/off with the lights but I can't seem to find it no matter what lights I use. I want to get back to the normal non-wetlook mat surface without upsetting my lights please can you tell me how to do this?

thanks

Kind of depends on what your materials look like. You could try Sreed display... That wouldn't effect your lights in renders. If you change your lights specular settings by creating diffuse only lights (Color specular chip black in mat room) you'll effect the specularity in your renders... Same with the specular on figure materials. you could try a different preview style, but that's not a representation of your texture.

You could try creating a diffuse only light strictly for preview purposes as a substitute for your main light set-up... When you go to render just turn off the preview light and turn on your regular light set. Not sure if that would work, worth a try though.
