1.Install painless, runtimes add on fast and painless.
2.Ugh, none of my Pythons work. This was expected, but major messing up of my workflow. Not even sure I will use 12 until at least some of them are updated.
- This follows that EZSkin and EZDome are unusable too. Major ugh.
- Superfly materials, again following previous iteration setups not working, are now useless the way they were in 11, and need reworking from bottom up. Any skin mats I tried from pre-Superfly days that I could either just use EZSkin on or were OK out of the box are now having that washed out look we all learned to hate.
- Firefly works fine and as expected.
- Post-render effects and denoise are nice and useful for first-run-through sand off the rough edges type refinements.
- Did not see any bugs yet, but what I saw so far are basically rendering (heh) Poser 12 largely useless for me unless I use absolutely new materials that came with THIS iteration, I learn Cycles materials from scratch, or stick with Firefly for the time being.
Did I mention it is a major issue with Python scripts not working? Anyone who relied on older mats fixed with EZSkin or using EZDome for realistic lighting is now SOL, unless they use nothing but the latest stuff that came out for LF and LH. And that, for me at least, is insufficient.
So for now, I will put this back in the box and wait, and be happy with 11.
