Is there a way to eliminate or reduce shadows within Render settings? I know I can turn off/reduce shadows in the lights and/or set individual objects to not cast shadows, but I was hoping one of the Superfly render settings could suppress shadows.
I'm using Poser 12 (I'll get 13 one of these days), Superfly (Med or High) Adaptive GPU. I can use another GPU setting, if need be.
Thanks.

If you have scenes with many, many characters, props and hairs: some relatively easy script could be written: a recurrent function which starts with UNIVERSE and check or uncheck the said option

Red Phantom and Y-Phil, thanks. I was just curious. Even when I read the Poser manual about some of the render settings, their functionality still goes over my head. I thought there might be something among them.

No, everything will depend on your lighting, both ambient and direct. Texture shaders can also play a part in redirecting reflected light. Increasing the specular value on any surface to make it more reflective can soften shadows to an extent.

Superfly does not render well with ambient occlusion, the node is not as robust as the Blender version and it doesn't offer the necessary controls to make it work effectively.

hborre, thanks. I killed the shadows in a glass pane by darkening the diffuse and specular.
