I too am trying to learn...Well from what I understand from the digital babes site is...1.you have to have your basic model built(max,truespace.ect)then you make your texture at the highest resolution your computer can handle then apply that map to the model,then go back and make your transparent texture of the first texture...go into your favorite paint program and use the smudge tool alot on the ends and slowly fade it going out to the ends...then bring into poser(the obj then apply the textures,also dont forget to tweak out the transparent settings either)this next section I am totaly flying by the seat of my pants so dont hold me to it ok...now to make rsr and cr2 files I think what you do is parent them to the object then save the whole object into a directory that you designate (in poser)but I might be totaly wrong and I probably am but to my thinking when you save the object to poser after parenting it to the obj and saveing the whole obj wouldnt that have poser already do it for you make the rsr files and cr2?I hope someone can help us with that one
