Very often merchants and or MAT pose creaters configure the initial setup just as it is on thier computer. Which means that if your system has any sort of difference in the path statement, then the MAT pose files wont be found. Poser has a catch for that and "Should" pop up a dialog box asking you to find the texture file, but more often than not it doesn't load it. One way to verify that everything is the way it should be, is to open the PZ2 file ("Should" be in the associated runtimelibrariespose folder. Any text editor can be used for this, I use Wordpad as it will open larger files than notepad. You are looking for a line that is similar to this one: textureMap "D:Poser 5RuntimetexturesDAZVictoria 3CharactersYumaYumaBody.jpg" Occasionally you will see all of the backslashes replaced with colons. This is okay, it still works. Next step is to actually go to the folder to see if the texture actually exsists where it says it does. If it is not there, you have your problem. If it IS there, then I would try to apply the texture manually, it could be a problem with the way the MAT file is being read. Hope that helps.
