I have noticed when I import my pz3s from poser that my figure's eyes do not have quite the same mats that I set in Poser 4. They seem to look a little duller and flat and do not reflect nice little high lights. I am wondering does any one have any inside secrets in regard to settings on how I should set and treat the prams an the mats for eyes in Vue?

Go into the display material summary(click the button or push F6) and find the eye materials. Edit the material and add a touch of reflections and even adjust the lighting till it looks like what you want. :)

Other reason for the difference : Vue's rendering engine handles lights quite differently that Poser. You will have to play a lot with atmosphere settings (exposure, ambiant light...) and lights settings before getting two comparable images between poser and Vue.

As NightVoice said:-) Poser has no volumetric light, but Vue has. Poser figures in Vue, when seen from close up, should be lighten by several spotlights, most of them shadowless, except the one aimed in the same direction as the sun. That's the way you get the best results. The atmosphere settings are not sufficient to lighten a face. Not in Poser either! Agiel showed in the thread above how to lighten a Poser figure in Vue. This might give you an idea. :-)Guitta

Thanks guys will give your advice a go and read the posts. I have had my Vue 4 now a couple of months, but I have been working on a number of other Poser projects (Adrianna II and a large Getto Town model) that have taken most of my time I haven?t given Vue the attention yet it deserves.
