If I create or edit a file in Poser 8 and then open it in Poser 2012, the whole scene seems to be completely lacking in lighting. It's not that there isn't light at all, but the whole thing is very dull and not vibrant whatsoever, especially when rendered. If I then apply a new light set to the scene in Poser 2012, this new lighting also looks extremely dull. Even if I were to increase the intensity of a light, it will not look bright whatsoever when rendered.

 

How can I get the scene to have the lights that I apply in Poser 2012 look like that lightsource? I can easily do it (and don't have too much trouble with lights) if I had started the entire file in Poser 2012, but if I'm opening old files created in Poser 8, it is only then that I have a problem. Is there a setting somewhere that is different between the two programs?

I want the lighting to be exactly the same for both programs, but they're not.
