thanks so much :)))

personally I use Habwares obj2max importer and the max2obj exporter, I import the geometry I want from the geometries folder, say just the head if making morphs and then simply click on zoom extents. The Habware plugin site is here http://www.habware.at/duck3.htm and as far as I know its free.hehehe anyway hope that helps.

try using magnets and experiment with different sized magbases and such, given a few hours you will find that even the smallest adjustment can be made with some patience. They are quite versatile tools. Then when you are happy with what you have click on spawn morph target, give the new morph a name or save out the head as an obj (head only) then load up a new figure (without the magnets) and click on load morph target, find the one you saved out and import it, dont forget to type in the name for it in the little window and voila! you have your new morph with vulcan eyes.

all chat rooms should have an ignore button. It really does spoil things when someone starts making trouble.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! looks like someone is going to get their @ss kicked tonight, giggles

with a little post work it comes out great! check it out. http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=45211&Start=1&Artist=Taura%20Noxx&ByArtist=Yes but then some people dont do post work so I can see why you would be wary about it. Maybe a few morphs for that top bit might work to make it more spikey or smoother. hmmmm might try that out myself one of these days. But all in all, I think its great.

well hey there Jim, if you need someone to help test, just message me :) hehehehehe be more than willing ;-)

I have seen the trailers for it, looks incredible to say the least! I am waiting eagerly for it to be shown here in Oz. I definately NOT missing this one at the box office. I will take my son if I have to.

I get the problem when after a few hours I want to render and it just doesn't do it. In fact last night I had a scene set up and it took me quite a while to get everything right, I though I will just do a quick render with the basic setting to see what it all looks before I save it. Well now poser didn't want to render, in fact Poser just hung there, every other application worked, just when I went back to the poser screen everytime I tried to click on something all I hear is that stupidass ding. So of course I cannot save my scene in fact the only thing I can do is hit cntr+alt+del and end task for the poser program. If I want to render anything after this happens then I would have reboot. But after a few of the posts of similar things happening , maybe it is a virtual memory thing. I will have to get another hard drive, but I dont have any ide slots left. Is there an addon card that can let me install more hard drives?

well they can hardly fault all of us for our setup, by the sounds of it there must be a lot more of us. And I also have the no textures problems after a while too, but usually after I shutdown poser and restart it without rebooting, it still wont render and the textures dont show anymore eiether. It will be interesting to see what comes of this, after their attention has been diverted here. Dont' get me wrong I absolutely love Poser, I just have to make sure each session doesn't last for too long if I want to render the result. I have also learnt to save before trying to do the test render :P

I only Norton product I use is the internet security thing. I am bad at doing regular defrags, its just the down time for me to defrag 19gigs that makes me keep putting it off. Even if we knew approximately how much space we should make sure is free to avoid the problem would be good. If I knew that poser needed 2gigs to work with while rendering I would be able to make sure that is always available, but I have no idea how much poser wants :)P

LOL@accordian. I have tried to do this with the horse aswell, looks like a morph or something would be needed for this one, only thing is it might stretch the texture a bit. I would have a go at this myself but I haven't been feeling the best lately and don't have the energy to spend that kind of time on it. But if you find the solution before I get around to it, let me know. I would love to achieve the grazing horse aswell.

I would like to know the thoughts on this too, plus light or the medium map? I would like to see more renders with the maps before I buy them aswell.
