Darth- I'm going to do a tutorial on this, as it's pretty easy, once you know the tricks, I did the 6 mapss for the Bryce render I just posted in the Poser forum in a couple of minutes. I do most all of my renderings in Bryce 4, but the textures on the clothing often don't get imported, the transparency and bump maps never do. To add them to the clothing, first you have to group all items of the clothing, use the Ctrl key combined with the shift key to pick them, then make a family. Then use the texture editor to map the image to one of the channels (A,B,C or D) next to the bump button. Click on the "copy" button under that window, then click on the "paste" button under the middle window and confirm the delete, as the middle window is what gets used in transparency and bump mapping. Try about 50% for the bump height to start. Tranparency works almost the same except there is no % setting, and tou must turn on blend transparency. If you can't figure what I'm talking about here, wait a bit, as I going to try and do a tutorial on this stuff as soon as I get some free time, as I mentioned above.
