**If you'll notice in the library there isn't a preview of the clothes pose there but after I applied it to the figure or what not, the box in the middle pops up. I am using the Pro Pack Enhanced Poser 4.03 on Windows XP.

**Thanks

Have you tried to re-install the application? It appears to me that you are missing some files? You can also just go into your files for poser and see exacty what is in the Pose file and or textures file. The pose file should contain a PZ2 and a rsr for each of the textures in the set. Your texture file should contain the textures for each of the mat poses. I have the same set up as you do and have never had a problem with any of LB's textures? genny

The file maybe corrupt. Apparently it has no thumbnail either. Can you open the particular file in a text editor. Its just text. If its garbled crap either its compressed or corrupted.

Did you get the .EXE or the .SIT from DAZ when you downloaded - most often when I get that message it's a Mac file, with several tens of bytes of MAc info at the start. For the PZ2 files, open in Notedpad (the XP version is fine for most Poser files - it doesn't have the 9x version's size limit) and remove the strange characters up to the { at the end of the first line. Macs put their thumbnails elsewhere (resource fork says a hazy memory) which is why you don't have any RSR/PNG previews. Of course you could just redownload, choosing the EXE this time, if you haven't run out of time or tries - I'd certainly recommend asking for a reset so you can get the proper file for future use.

Wyrwulf - it's one of the DAZ active-ware texture sets, LB being Lisa Bucklaw(?), so it should come in both flavours.

No, .sit is a compression format like a .zip, used by Aladdin's StuffIt application. It may be executable on a Mac, but I doubt it. Kuroyume

I'm on a mac here so I could check the file and verify if it's working right or or is 'bent' btw, I don't have V3 or active wear so no worries about me keeping something I didn't pay for (nothing more useless than a mat file for something you don't have :-) )

I have seen the same problem before - I believe if you open the pz2 file in notepad you will see that the pz2 file and the rsr are actually joined together - there in't a seperate rsr file. Something has happened and the files have overwrote each other or it is a pirated copy of the mat files and the "joining" of the pz2 and rsr is an artifact of the process used to compress the pirate files.

The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.

Tastiger - it's just the way Macs do it - presumably MacConverter joins the RSR/PNG to the library file as part of converting PC-format stuff. Warez stuff that started from a Mac would exhibit the junk, but not because it's warez or compressed.

Here's a pic of V3 masks before and after conversion. You can see that Maconverter does joine the rsr and file but it ignores any .png files present (another program handles those)

Have you tried asking LisaB for help, this looks like her product?
