Oh, all versions of Poser do the welding, there is a command in the CR2 that tells Poser to do it, if you leave it out (I've done that!) you get exactly this result, the welding isn't automatic. In fact, when I saw the problem that is the first thing I checked. ;-) Here is what it looks like in the CR2 of my swimsuit: weld abdomen:2 hip:2 weld chest:2 abdomen:2 weld rThigh:2 hip:2 weld lThigh:2 hip:2 I did some rendering in Poser 6 today and noticed some other bugs too, like the metal "gold" shaders aren't working right, I also noticed the area render was coming out black if you used ray-tracing, but that was before I put in SR1, I didn't check it after. The more I look the more bugs I find.
