Hello, I am a Poser Newbie :-) and i am wondering how to have my stuff rendered in my animation, when i created my animation the hair is still transparent, how do i make it not transparent in the animation. Also if i am animating how do i keep clothing and objects locked onto my model? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Casey McCane

Make sure your setting is set to render instead of display settings when you set up the animation. It'll take a lot longer to render the video, but everything will be there.

Welcome! The more the merrier... The transparency problem: When you go to "Make Movie," check the quality setting. It's probably going to say "Current Display Setting." It should be changed to to your "Current Render Setting." Clothing and props: Not sure just how new to Poser you are. Most clothing, and some types of hair, are conforming figures. If these figures are conformed to your character, you can animate your character and the clothes will automatically move with the figure. Other types of hair, and some props are smart props that automatically attach to a body part, and will also move automatically. Non-smart props can be made to move with your figure by "parenting" the prop to the desired body part. I don't do much "parenting," so others may be able to be more specific, but I think that once you have a non-smart prop where you want it (for example, in a character's hand), make sure you have the prop selected, then use the Object menu at the top of the screen to bring up the parenting window.

Ooooh! black cat beat me to that first part!
