Subject: Clear Materials List?

You know when you set up your texture and other maps in Render>Materials, and you cannot change a file without renaming it because the old one stays in "memory"? Well, is there any way to clear this list and this "memory" so that you can change a tex file and still use the same name? Or am I doing this all completely wrong? :)

I find if I replace the old file by a new one with the same name (in the same location), then when I start to render (even if I stop the render immediately) Poser becomes aware of the new file. But it is true that you cannot use a file in a different folder with the same name as a file already used. Except by quitting Poser and starting over.

Ah, I didn't realise that. That will be helpful. On the second part though, mine still remembers the "loaded list" even after a reboot, never mind quitting and restarting. Is this a problem? It is the ProPack though, maybe that's why? Oh and yes, one other thing :) I can't seem to make .bum files either? Is that another propack thing or some installation corruption?

propack can handle bumpfiles in *jpg format.for normal poser they have to be converted.

Yeah I knew they could handle it, but I wasn't sure that is wasn't supposed to create the .bum (some downloads ask you to do that that's all, I just wondered, no biggie:)
