Anton (and other P6 users).
I have found and fixed the problem with empty image maps. Poser 6 has a bug. When I copy the template into each zone, and plug in any image maps sources I find, that works. But any that are left without a source are supposed to report to me that they have None for the file name. Instead, on P6, they tell me the image file name is the Poser application folder name. They only do this during synchronize. If we let Poser settle down and do a bunch of internal updates, then it says they are None.
So what I've done is to detect that Poser 6 is a telling a lie. I examine the file it claims to be using. If the file ends with the file path character (the backslash character on PC) then this is not a real file name and I ignore that stupid lie.
I do not know what will happen on P6 Mac, as the file path character is a colon there. I will check for the colon, but it may not behave the same on Mac. P6 Mac may tell a different sort of lie. We'll have to wait and see.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
