"Hey Ive also adopted the technique of creating my figures and then saving as objects and bring them all in to another scene later;  Do you think that by doing that way instead of creating all in one scene at once caused the files to be bigger?"

Steeleyes101 - Yes, smaller.  I was going to tell Valerian70 that the scene is about a 300K(if I rememebr correctly) BryceScene.OBJ; which, becasue of it not being an actual Poser' Figure, makes for a  lot of very light Surface to hit in the Material Room.  To animate this would take more of these BryceScene.OBJ exports; but still not carry much of the needed Poser' Data to perform, within the scope of our GUI, like Figures.

Virtual Memory was the clutch answer.  This has improved with Vista, but I hav'nt installed yet...XP allows 4GBs of RAM per disk.  If you want to be playing with Poser alot; set the Initial and Maximum fields to 4000 each, per disk.  This, however, does'nt mean Poser will ever get 4GB; XP limits each application(including itself,) to 2 GBs.  Stewer has a way to increase this to 3GBs, and is very knowldgeable about Poser 7 new memory related improvements.
