Just from looking at it I can tell you what is wrong probibly. I wrote you a reply before but Renderosity went down. Illegal character an the file names. The computer uses english rules for file saved on the drives. Computers are not mutiligual only the texts that you read on them is. It's all based on english underlying code. I see if I can find that post cause I did save it here somewhere. See I saved it. I went threw all the trouble of typing it out then I couldn't post it... Well one thing you may want to check, I'm not sure how poser works in Vue but you can still check textures reguardless where the mesh came from in Vue no problem. Click on material summery then click on the face texture. You know the one that's clear. Look at the first tab on that new texture that opens. Is it set to mapped picture? Is there a picture name in the field? Like where it says mapped picture. Is there a name there for a file? Cause if there is no name there then the file cannot be found and that's the problem, If there is a texture name there then click on load and browse to the file and load it again. Problem should be solved IF it can read the file. You should see it there in the preview window now. Chances are the file is missing and that is why it is not showing up. Like it can't find the file, can't read the file or some other problem. Can you actually see the file open in a program? Check for capitol letters or weird characters in the file name (-~ or others. Rename the file to something simple and remap the mesh with that new file. Chances are it's a file name problem. Like it has capitol letters and the mesh has small letters or spaces and no spaces. Computers don't guess if it can't find it too bad you get weird results, it don't care. YOU are doing something wrong cause lots of people have got this mesh to load no problem. It's probibly simple so start with the obvious like file names then file types. Don't expect it to open a jpg if the mesh is written to open a bmp. Sometimes textures maps get lost importing into vue but the above browse to the folder and load it again over top will fix it no problem and easily. Try it. Poser is not the only program that does this. It has to do with the file not being found. Drop a exact copy in the Bitmap folder in Vue cause if it's not found Vue always looks there next if it don't show up the first time. Gives a whole new meaning to Face off in the corner !
