Hello Jim,

It is very exciting to get tech help from a modeller of your calibre :)

I have opened a .pp2 for coloring a hair prop, and noted the instances of open and closing bracers and the "prop" call. I have checked the .pz2's of all the props for thier correct name:num and made a MAT file with a field for 5 of the props. My first test was flawless, all props converted in one shot!

I now have what I think is the most compact set I reasonably can, with the one mat file shared by cuirass, arms, legs and guantlets, and the one-click-sets-all props MAT.

Here is Mordikar's armor in the test MAT set for the default reflection maps included with the Poser installations for (to my knowledge) PP, 5, and 6. Hauberk and Coif textured with a map created in Photoshop by Mordikar
