Subject: MAT files do not apply the mats to the figure

I loaded up V4 and a prop. Went to the Pose V4 and selected a MAT file and it did not apply the mat to V4. Same thing with the prop.

MAT files no longer work<

They are working for me. I loaded up Mike 4 and used the MAT to apply his skin texture. If it matters...I still have Poser 11 installed. I had to install that DSON file when I got Poser 11. I did not install the DSON file for Poser 12, so if it needed it, it must have used the one from Poser 11.

Gen4 files ( Michael 4 / Victoria 4 and Kids 4 ) do not use DSON.

@rvwalsh - is it a material file ( .mt5, .mz5, .mc6, .mcz ) or a material pose ( .pz2, .pzz )

Works for me and I'm using Victoria 4.

Works fine here as well. Mats apply both from materials and poses folders, tried V4, M4, LF, Dawn. Now mind you, some mats needed to be reapplied on pre saved characters. P12 is... weird right now. Keep reporting bugs.

Same here. No problems applying MATPose or Material presets to any of my models.
