This is a problem with ALL the hair, the standard Poser hair and my own created hair. When I load any hair into Poser6, Poser6 overwrites the colors and adds a Noise node if it doesn't have one. This happens to all the Hair Groups. As a test I created a small hair piece, in Poser6, set the extreme colors and removed the noise node. Saved the file, opened in a text editor and confirmed, yes the colors are there and there is NO Noise node. Open in P6... colors get set to black and adds Noise node. Open in P5 (completely different computer) and it opens showing the correct colors and no noise node, as expected. I have completely re installed Poser6 after trashing the previous install and the problem persists. I suspect this is a bug in Poser6 but where can the problem lie? It is very unusual for something to work and then stop working like this. There must be a file somewhere that's not being overwritten.
