OK from the beginning.

I am running SnowLeopard OS 10.6.8

I got WineBottler sometime ago just never installed it being reluctant to install stuff that I might not know how to use (I assure you all I have tried a lot of stuff that that has happened to).You say it runs under WINE...what OS Version are you running?

As much as I hate to admit it, I am NOT the sharpest nail in the bag when it comes to this stuff. Despite having been using Poser since version 4 (now in 7) I am not sure how I've managed to even decent images created all this time since there is so much in the app and other utilities I have never been able to wrap my rigid brain matter around (magnets, deformers, dynamic hair, dynamic cloth, the advanced Materials settings room, joint parms, etc).

Last time I used UVMappper Light Free for Mac I got a headache trying to figure out what to do. So not too thrilled about this from the get go but I really want to use these animal figures so I am going to try.

 

Quote - Let's start at the beginning.

What version of OSX are you running?  OSX 10.7 no longer supports Rosetta (the part that makes PPC versions run). 

UVX Mapper is a PPC application & will not run under 10.7 (Lion) or later.

Give me a few minutes & I'll see if I can get the windows version to run under WINE.

<2 minutes later>

It runs under WINE no problem.
