About UTC, I got it even though I have a Mac. I'm happy to report, UTC works perfectly in Virtual PC with no problems at all. I haven't used UTC to create MATs though. If you want to, you'll need to install Poser inside VPC to do that, and have the PC Poser's runtime exactly match your Mac's Poser runtime in order for the Mats (copied from VPC to MAC) to work properly. So far, I haven't bothered with all that mess. I would rather just have a Mat making program for the MAC, but I don't there is one. :( Anyhoo, I love UTC! I'm translating all my favorite textures with UTC. It's fun to watch the computer do all the work instead me, and the machine is much faster than I would be (even if it's slower to run UTC in VPC). UTC converted texture maps will have distortion in some places, but I figure it's easier to retouch and figure out texture placement by scratch. UTC is also a fun tool to see just how good, or not good, your purchased texture maps are, especially translating M1/M2 to M3. I'm happy most of my purchases were truely seamless, but not all of them. In fact my favorite M2 body texture was not seamless in M3. I had to retouch under the arms and along the torso sides. For any Mac user who spends a lot of time making their own texture maps, I think it would be a good investment to get UTC and run it in Virtual PC. bB
