Ok, lately, some of the time when I play in the material room, I can't get out. I'll minimize Poser for some reason, and when I bring it back up, half of it is gone (see screenshot). I can't switch rooms, I can't save my project, and I end up crashing it just to start all over again. Any idea what could be causing this? Sarah

Could be the infamous memory leak; I've heard some people still get variations on that even after installing the service release.

That's a "feature" from at least Poser 4. If you minimize Poser while it's working, you are basically screwed.

Yep, forgot and made that mistake once. Never again. Grrr...you think they'd have fixed it by now. As well as the only one undo "feature". ::whacks CL/Whomever's programmers upside the head with a clue by four::

Interesting. I could of sworn I minimized it before while it was thinking with no ill effects. Ah well :-) I'll give it a shot ext time around LOL. Thanks! Sarah

I minimize Poser while it's working. When half of Poser disappears like that, the way you fix it is to right-click on the Poser tab on the taskbar, and choose Restore. Most of the time, that fixes it.

Or with taskmanager, right click the poser task and then "bring to foreground" or whatever it's called.

Sometimes it takes a long time for Poser to come back...or even for Restore to become active (instead of grayed-out). If you wait, it will usually come back. Definitely worth the wait if you have a lot of work you haven't saved. If you don't have anything you need to save, it might be faster to just kill Poser using Task Manager and restart.

For me, it's a corrupted texture file or something P6 cannot find from a previous version. I would minimize and wait for restore to appear. As soon as you are in, go to display>libraries and change that material to anything in reach (1st click). Then exit matroom. Reenter and choose correct texture. Your call but, I see the pesky stairs.pmd file on your desktop...this binary morph filing can be disabled for simplicity. Or delete all props and figures not in scene and save as new.
