Issue with Taka in Material Room

It was the first thing that jumped out at me when I compared Taka with one of the Dusk SSS materials.

Let me tell you ... there are a LOT of pos lines!!!

Oh, I should clarify too. The first pos number isn't 8 or 10 for ALL nodes. Just the Poser Surface.

That would put the first "column" of nodes at about pos 252.
The second second column of nodes at about pos 520

With pos 8 or 10 on everything, you get all the nodes stacked on top the Poser Surface. :oops:

I am fixing now and rebuilding in P10. Looks like that is working just fine. Aiming to get those to Alisa tomorrow. I won't make that mistake again:) Live and learn! Since it was fine in P10 I didn't know there would be a problem in pp2012 and 2014 since I've never owned or used those versions.

View attachment 10243 Yep that is what I did In PP2014 to mess it up. Sorry But when I use the firefly mats afterwards this is what I get. This is PP2014 render all defaults on lights etc.

Is this with Gamma Correction on? I strongly suggest in the ReadMe to NOT use GC. (There is no GC support in P9 which is why I make my MATS for no GC)
Also I am not a fan of the poser default lights for many reasons . I never use those as an ideal test light set. Here he is in p10 with default lights with no GC

So I rebuilt all of the Firefly MATs for Taka and sent to Alisa just a bit ago.

This has been updated - please redownload Poser version. DS only has ReadMe changed to reflect the update. I'll post shortly in the update thread :)
