Quote - Nobody having any bugs from the SR3?

I've not had any bugs with OGL or object import or display.  I do seem to be having some other problems, if you're just making a general call for possible SR3 bugs.  In both cases, a known bug from earlier versions seems to have worsened. 

When loading any kind of insertion pose, I end up with double-intensity insertions, until the file is saved and re-opened.  The old workaround for this which worked prior to SR3 no longer seems to help.

When saving a .pz3, hidden actors will consistently lose any ERC they might have had present in joint-controlled morphs.  This is an old bug, but in this case, too, there seemed to be a workaround which no longer helps avoid the problem.  Actors now need to be visible when saving to .pz3, to be sure they'll be saved with functioning JCM's.  Which is a bit of a PITA with a scene full of Antonias.  :lol:

If they're trying to "get the bugs out", it looks like they're creating new ones in the process, so far.  Unfortunately, neither insertion poses nor JCM's is formally supported by Poser, so these may not be actual bugs.  Both of these features are user hacks of Poser, and Poser is seemingly less tolerant of them than in the past.  Getting the bugs out may involve breaking some of the tricks we've been using to create more advanced functionality in Poser, and that worries me, a bit.  :sad:  I mean, what do we do, if they break JCM's?  :scared:

Edit to add:  I had display driver issues with Poser 8, for some time.  What helped me more than anything was updating all display drivers, then re-installing Poser.  I still had problems after the drivers were updated, but Poser hadn't been reinstalled.  Reinstalling fixed most of my problems.  Possibly P8 needs to have the right drivers in place at installation time, or it will never be quite right.  :unsure:

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
