heyas; oy! what a list! 1: yes. use the document display balls to show wireframe, or lit wireframe, etc. i believe you can 'render' a wireframe the same way you do in p4. you have to do a single frame animation, and when you do the 'make movie,' you set it to use the current display style, instead of the current render style. otherwise, you can just export the wireframe preview image. 2: if you can't find it at the curious labs site, you probably can't get it. if the advanced guide is corrupted, you might need to try to d/l it again. 3: go to www.uvmapper.com, and you can extract the templates for anything. (well, anything that has an obj file.) there are supposedly some templates included with p3, but some of them were not accurate. 4: try double-clicking the lights; there ought to be an option to not cast shadows. if you turn the lights off, your scene will just come out all black. if you need soft and/or ambient lighting, you may have to export your poser figures to another 3d app to render them. 5: if you want to use morphing to change the shape of the body parts, that works the same in any version of poser; look for morphing tutorials. 6: it is possible to get victoria to work in poser 3. look for english bob, the poser 3 guru who accomplished this. :) as for purchasing clothing and hair and other add-ons for the p3 female.... there's tons in the free stuff and stores. clothing for the p4 female will fit, any hair can be made to fit. the only thing that won't work are the skin textures. if you want new women... hmmm, i think eve and azura were based on the p4 woman, so you might not be able to decode them with the p3 version. but you can ask around. 7: i'm working on a figure creation book, and it will include p3 info. but that's down the road a bit. the advanced techniques pdf details the figure creation process, so try to get that again. look in the tutorial section for figure creation. you'll want the phi-file method, which is what p3 uses. 8: the joints for the p3 female are exactly the same as the p4. use those ;) 9: long AND posable? you can use any of the commercial posable hair (like the ultra salon i think it is? the long braid thingy and whatnot), but keep in mind you won't be able to use the trans-mapping to make the hair look realisitc. posable hair works pretty much like a posable cape. there's a buncha free capes you can download to have a look. 10: look in the tutorial section under magnets. morphworld has a good detailed magnet tutorial at www.morphworld30.com
