Hey all, Wondering if there is a way to delete materials (selectable in the render/materials menu in P4) for an object, either through group mode, editing the cr2, or any way possible? I know using the group editor lets you create/assign materials, but i cant find any way to get rid of them? Thanks in advance!

On a Pc file I think you can open the CR2 file in notepade (Text Editor) and delete the materials. I'll have to try it sometime.

A lot of CR2 files have legacy materials and if you delete all material entrys - they stay gone. But, when you open at CR2 file in Poser, it will rewrite the materials that are assigned in the OBJ file (an entry for every discrete Usemtl_*** line in the "f" section. The only way to permanently get rid of a material is to delete it from the OBJ file. If you are playing with textures in Poser and have accumulated a long list , just save the CR2 and close Poser. When reopened, the CR2 will only list the textures that are actually used, the others are gone.

I will have to check, but I think Jaager is correct - you have to delete materials from the OBJ file rather than the CR2 Paul

heya; how about this trick: getting rid of the preview material. it never stays at the bottom of the list, out of the way, where i stick it, and it is always selected when i am trying to change some USEFUL material, like the skin. argh! :)
