P3do explorer has an option to view a pp2 prop file as an object (mesh).  Does anyone know how to enable that option?

Try - tools - options - 3D render - wireframe.

When you click on  a pp2 -cr2 or obj it will show you the mesh in the  preview window.

That didn`t work, it still shows a black thumbnail.

Does your interface look like this? I believe mine is still at the default for the Pro Version.

xantor ( ) posted Sat, 22 March 2008 at 1:54 PM

It does look much the same, except I just get thumbnails in the view at the bottom left.

Sorry I don't know what else to tell you if you have the Pro version. ;-(   

Ask Yarp, maker of P3dO, I am sure he can help you. :-)

I don`t have the pro version, but the free version allows you to look at the mesh.

FWIW, UvMapper can also view the embedded OBJ data in a prop. 
Just pick "all files" instead of OBJ on the file-open, and locate the PP2. 
You'll be able to rotate the view and see it from all sides in wireframe.

OK, thank you.

Xantor, the free version of P3dO has limited features. Especially for viewing Poser meshes.
The PP2 preview is a P3dO pro feature.

The free version can still show external OBJs, those listed in the InDepth tree (you have to right click the file name and select Open), while embedded OBJs may not be seen.

OK, thank you, I think that it might have been that an older free version let you see the mesh or it could have been a beta version.

yarp ( ) posted Wed, 26 March 2008 at 12:18 AM

Yes, it was available in older free version. I had to make it sell better.

I think 1.8 was the last with that feature:

If it were not 1.8, it was the previous. You may still get every older P3dOs by changing the version number.

I will probably just wait and buy the pro version.

yarp ( ) posted Wed, 26 March 2008 at 7:06 AM

Ok.
Be forwarened that 2.0 will be more expensive : about 30$.

But I still don't know when 2.0 will be released, so much to do.
April or May is a good guess.

If I buy the version before 2.0, will I get 2.0 as an upgrade or will I need to wait till 2.0 is available to buy it?

yarp ( ) posted Wed, 26 March 2008 at 9:05 AM

P3dO is cheap in the long term.

The P3dO license gives free updates for a period of at least 2 years. People getting P3dO now will have a free 2.0 upgrade, and a free 2.2 and so on...

Note that  at least 2 years has a very large meaning since first P3dO pro licenses were sold in 2004 and people still get free updates. 2.0 will end that ;(

btw Outdated licenses will nevertheless be upgradable at a prefered price (it'll be 15$).
