welding the mesh is not the same thing as the "weld" statements in the cr2 files. If you weld the mesh. It won't work. You need to tell Poser to connect the body parts together and never let them come apart. The "weld" statements in the figure's cr2 accomplish this. If you try to weld more than one bodypart to another. You'll also end up with problems. I can't tell from the picture. But you might be welding too many parts to a similar body part causing this problem. ScottA
