Try this:
Load a sphere, open the material editor and click "Mapped picture" at the first tab. Click the little arrow underneath the picture preview window to go to the bitmap library of Vue.
On the bottom you see an icon of a paper with a folded corner, click that and point to your Poser Textures folder. Click OK. You have now created a link from within the Vue library to your Poser Textures folder.
Next time Vue can not find a texture it will first go through it's library of bitmaps to try to find it, and subsequently will find it in the Poser Textures folder. It then prompts if you want to replace the unfound bitmap with the one found, which is of course the same as the original. Say yes to all, sit back, and let Vue do the rest!!!!
It is very accurately because I think it uses the whole path instead of just the name of the file.
As an alternative you can point to the Poser Textures folder from within the preferences settings, but I like it this way so I can easily try different textures, without going back to Poser.
Cheers!
