I like to make my own textures for some of the poser clothing and figures... and was fiddling around with the 3d painting in photoshop last night... has anyone successfully created textures for poser objects using the 3d painting method? or should I just go back to the tried and true way of painting the maps?

i think it was Poser4 that came with its own 3d painting app. Can't recall the name of it. You imported the object file, painted on it, then exported a new obj for use with your map!

I'm actually more interested in the capabilities of photoshop extended's 3d painting.

I dont have any issue continuing to do things my old fashioned tried and true way...texturing the flat maps...but if I can do the 3d texture right on the 3d model in photoshop life would be soooo much easier :)

O.K. I really haven't fooled around with it much myself but when you're importing your model it's also importing the flat texture map which is what you paint on and then when you save it you can then view it on your model with Photoshop. In other words you can't paint directly on your model in a 3d view ala BodyPaint3d. At this point Photoshop's 3d capabilities are very rudimentary  and mostly only truely useful for compositing a 3d model into a 2d scene.

TY Areno, That is the same thing that I noticed, I was just wondering if I had missed something :)

I am happy they have added 3d painting capabilities :) I can't wait to see what they do with it in future releases :)
