Can someone explaine to me the huge difference with this pov when rendered
in 3.1 vs 3.5...I just dont get it...
I understand part of the problem is the change in the way normals are
handled, and I believe I can fix this by simply lowering the value of my
normals, but the part that really has me puzzled is the way the color map
has been displaced.  Could someone please explain the difference that is
causing it and how I can adjust for it with precision rather than inching it
around over a million renders to find the proper values...there has to be a
direct relation but I cannot find it!  Also, could someone explain the new
changes in Normals so that I can adjust my renderings appropriately.
