Subject: HELP! Figures won't show in posing window!


vmiller ( ) posted Thu, 02 May 2002 at 7:51 PM · edited Sat, 10 August 2024 at 6:05 AM

I have looked for help in the support and FAQ areas of Curious Lab, etc..
but can't solve this problem. I can't see the figures in the posing window.
If I click on a part of a figure or run my cursor over the window I can see
a faint line drawing of the figure ... the highlight indicating an area or
part. I have tried adjusting the video hardware acceleration and have
changed the color depth up and down, and the screen resolution, but no joy.
Selecting different view settings such as line, hidden line, etc.. doesn't
help, and I haven't come across any settings I may have set wrong. I have tried erasing my preference files, and setting the start-up to factory defaults. The figures are there, squarely in the middle of the window, just invisible until I run my cursor over them and a body part is them highlighted and then barely visible as a dotted line.

To make things more complicated I have two video cards with two monitors,
one a hot NVIDIA quadro II pro (in my graphics port) and one an old Matrox
Millenium (pci). My computer is a Dell Workstation 530 with dual xeon
processors and 1 gig of memory. I am running Windows 2kpro. I have heard something about Poser not
working with systems with "to much memory", Could this be?

Any help much appreciated!

heyas; is this all your figures? usually when the figure hiearchy is there, but the figure geometry isn't, that's an indication that the group names of the obj file don't match the body part names in the cr2. if this is happening with the standard figures, try going into the geometries directories and deleting the rsr files there. then re-load the figure and see if that helped.

Yes it is with all figures. I have deleted the rsr files, rebooted, restarted, but no joy. I have uninstalled the program, gone through the registry, reinstalled the program, still no good. I have version 4, with the 4.03 update. Doesn't help to install the poser plus package. Things work fine on another, older computer.

A suggestion from another forum solved the problem! If you have TO MUCH virutal memory, then Poser doesn't work right. Seems kind of backward doesn't it? anyway, I reduced my virtual memory from 3 gigs on one drive plus an addition 3 gigs on a second drive and all it well. VMX
