I've worked on these all day....Geeze. Getting figures poser ready is a pain. The Phi builder, the UV Mapper, making sure their all grouped right....and then editing the cr2. That's a lot of work. Well, all the props are finished and loadable from the library now. The Gate is even poseable. All that's left is to find out how to make MAT files.

Yikes. I just realized how terrible the compression is on the above image. Curse my stupidity. Here's a better shot :) .

That is the easy part....LOL, see not easy doing this, can't miss one part or else your model looks....well....like...sh*******, right...LOL and doesn't work worth a darn, but once you get the hang of the system, it will move right along. Mat files, load your part from the figures libray, then add all your texture to your part, then delete the rsr saved in the figures library, and then save the new one with all the textures applied....simple huh....Sharen PS: make sure you have your textures where you want them to be, in the correct directory, cause your cr2 file will file that info.

Great work Kagato, I'm looking forward to seeing these available. And if you want MAT poses made easy, you want one of two programs. JHoagland's MAT Creator (currently at version 3.0) or Hogwarden's PBooost! (current version 1.3) are both painless utilities for creating MAT files, for P4 or Pro Pack compatability. MAT Creator is a bit more powerful, and if you're making MATs for inclusion in a package, it's what I'd recommend. However, PBooost! (which I had the pleasure of beta-testing for this latest version) is a great all-around utility, which just keeps getting more robust. Both programs are available in the Marketplace, and the prices can't be beaten. hope this info helps you, and again, great work! CT

These are really great props Kagato. Looking forward to seeing the finished item.

If yer a Mac guy there's MATconverter by Jim White. Freestuff/Poser/Utiliies Looks Cool BTW! Jon
