Hi everybody, I'm glad the discussion is getting serious again :-) About the P5 functions: yes, POSETools can write real P5 mat Files, and you can apply them with either a doubleclick, or apply parts of them - to anthing, props included- via the pz2 Analyzer. The fact that the P4 and P5 Versions have as much the same capabilities as possible has taken me many, many hours of work and testing. It sure hasn't come easy. The difference between the two is that the P5 Version has extra, Poser 5 specific functions, which Poser 4 simply cannot have. I'm sorry some of you don't seem to like the website, but I suppose there is also the question of different tastes out there:-) The site should be approachable with more or less any browser, but it turns out that Win XP Sp2 can make for some difficulty. I will check it out once I have the WinXP SP2 running. But to those of you who didnt like the site: sorry. Another thing: yes, of course the program is pretty complex- don't forget it does a multitude of VERY difficult things. But this is why each module has a number of tutorials. In principle, if you take the trouble to keep the tutorial next to the module, and do the steps that are described in there, you should be able to write/read your first multiple poses / mats in something like five minutes. Cheers, Paul Christiaan
