Thanks Rob. Took a bit of tinkering (actually a lot), but once I finally understood how this was supposed to worked, I did it on the first try (ok, the second try). The arm movement isn't totally free, in that only some poses will work without going in an adjusting the bandolero again by hand, but neither of these required bandolero adjustment. Now, can I just post the .pz3 for the gun and bandolero (one figure), or do I need to include the .obj files as well? The bandolero on her right leg is a separate figure, btw. Thanks again Rob! --ratta

Looks very nice. If you post the figure you should, in a perfect world, post it in an archive with the proper paths laid out so it automatically extracts into the right folders. I have found this normally requires setting up a bogus poser directory structure. You need the OBJs for anything you include, along with textures and CR2s. A PZ3 with all of them in a single scene would work as well as a pile of cr2s and pp2s. If your CR2s and PP2s include the entire OBJ then you don't need the seperate obj files. If it is too much trouble to build the directory path then just make a zip with all the parts in and a list saying where everything should go.

Thanks, Kevin, anything special I need to know regarding converting this stuff from a Mac? --ratta

I'mm really not sure. My general thought is no, I don't think their is much needed. But I'm by no means sure about that. I'll see if I can find some one else to ask.

WHOA, been a few days since I checked this forum... sorry about the delay Bob! Glad to see my suggestion worked, the result is awesome! That prop would look great in the hand of my "TattooedDude" screamin' down a dark alley on his trusty HOG, ready to pump some deserving soul full of... well... you get the idea. :D You'll need to post both the .pz3 and the .obj becuase the .obj is not one anyone else has. As far as I know, there shouldn't be any problems with a PC reading the Mac .obj or the .pz3. We may have to ask one of the Mac guru's around here that one... MartinC is a name that comes to mind very quickly. -Rob (on my way out the door to work..)
