With Poser 5 and 6 not wanting to attach P4/PP MAT bump files I thought the easiest solution would be to write a partial MAT file using the Bump part of the shader tree... the problem I'm having is it wipes out the exisiting texture map as well.

Below is a portion of the code, what am I doing wrong?

{
version
{
number 5
}
figure
{
material plumage
{
bumpStrength 1
bumpMap ":Runtime:textures:songbirds:SBRP5_bump.jpg"
0 0

{
node "poser" "PoserSurface"
{
pos 10 10
nodeInput "Bump"
{
value 0.036 -10 10
parmR NO_PARM
parmG NO_PARM
parmB NO_PARM
node "Image_Map_4"
file ""
}
}
node "image_map" "Image_Map_4"
{

{

Partial MATs don't work, you have to include the whole Shader tree.

For P5, there is no alternative.

For P6, you can use a Wacro do modifications to the Shader tree.

Ugh... I was afraid that was the answer...
