Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2025 Jan 20 11:41 am)



Subject: Preview okay, Superfly render a mess but Firefly okay...

I'm wrangling some free FBX figures, also available in PMX (MMD) format.

This is 'Courtney', https://www.deviantart.com/sab64/art/MMD-Model-Magma-Admin-Courtney-Download-764557653

Import ~10% original scale, zero-rotations to flip upright. Single, easily posable rig. After Poser failed to find a missing 'toon01.bmp', I had to hand-load the others using the PMX material list as guide. 

Basic mapped textures, shared by FBX & PMX. No clever layering of nodes etc., just Diffuse with Alpha-channels. I extracted latter as Transparency maps

But, the facial textures refuse to render well in Superfly. Preview is okay, as is Firefly, matching appearance of PMX in PMX Editor...

Any recommendation for tutorial(s) that may help me untangle this, let me render these figures in superfly ?

Never mind the pixel-fuzz, I again halted Superfly as soon as looked wrong...

FWIW, I did a lot of trial Superfly renders using different parameters: I got a migraine, plus many deleted renders re-appearing next time I started Poser...

FWIW, I did a lot of trial Superfly renders using different parameters: I got a migraine, plus many deleted renders re-appearing next time I started Poser... 

I've read this the other day and I thought "Where is the parameter that controls the place in which the renders are stored?"
Couldn't find this damn setting, even though I was pretty sure that I saw it one day in Poser, maybe within an old version?
Anyway... on my computer, using Poser12, those files are stored in a folder stored under a specific one: the current user's "Document", one of those that is frequently synchronized with those pure evil OneDrive, GoogleDrive and other f...ckDrives... I hate them.

Is that the case on your computer?  because depending on the way Poser interacts with Windows, the evil synch tool may thing "oops, my beloved user lost them... let's put them back in place..."

That being said, it looks pretty good using this very simple setup:

Linux support for Queue Manager that would be the stuff

So is that TTFN or TANSTAAFL?
