RE: Poser Pro...I am only the CP and content chick...sorry folks...

This is kind of an abuse of the promotion isn't it?   I really can't endorse this idea. You technically really shouldn't be buying content that stays in your account for download and then transferring files around, there is nothing that says that you can't just download it later if you want to use it.  In a way, it is pirating the content, even if it isn't intended as such.  If you want to "gift" content, that is what Gift Certificates are for, and those are excluded from the promotion.  The coupon is good once per user.

All the links in my first post also go straight to the list of e frontier products!

Here is the CP Bee:

Yes, the Poser (et al) people will be at CES, Macworld and many other shows coming up.  The name of the company changed, the people and products didn't!

Hi Guys!

I checked with the sales department and that site did have a bunch...but there is doubts that they could have any left, so that may not be your solution.  It is generally normal for older versions of Poser to go off sale when the new version is released.  Poser 5 was brought back only for a temporary time for that special, to get everyone up to speed before the P7 presale, but was not available for purchase during the life cycle of Poser 6, just like Poser 6 is no longer available.

You can check out the official e frontier america ebay store though!

The Sci-fi and Rockabilly were freebies at one point, and then on sale afterwards, and the Spring Collection outfit I believe was part of the Passport CD Vol. 1.

hey guys-

We have emailed Turbosquid regarding the 3 products (Jessi, Dork & Posette) and have asked them to be removed.  If you look, both the last 2 were published over the weekend. We work hard to have these models removed but they are frequently reposted.  PLEASE contact us at e frontier via the contact form to the legal department or PM me over at the forums or wave a red flag and send us links when you see any of the content on turbosquid so we can have it removed.  I also found other providers content up there today and have emailed them to notify them.  Piracy of content is not tolerated under any circumstances.

Thanks for the emails on this, it was much appreciated!

 Miki 2.0 is VERY different than Sydney.  Most side by side renders will show that, and she is not G2 compatible since she is a petite cutie.

Miki 1.0 customers without serials should open a support ticket w/ CP or EF w/ as much order info as they have available and we will send you a coupon code and link just as soon as we can.  I just tried to answer a bunch of them and will keep my eye in there, but please be patient, and remember our normal CS staff only works business hours PST.

Most Miki 1.0 content will not work, as her UV's were recut.  Some conforming hair may or may not work and same with dynamic clothing.  Prop hair should work.  Conforming clothing will not, as she has been rerigged.

ARE THE ELBOWS FIXED?

Yes, sir.  She is remarkably better in bending and posing than her earlier version!  I think people are going to fall in love with her!

Also, to address some of the questions I have seen in random places...Miki 2.0 is NOT Generation 2 female compatible.  Since she is a petite little girl compared to them, it was not possible for them to share clothing and is a stand alone figure.

Quote - Your EF info should also be at CP also. If you look under "search" on the front page of CP you'll see "View my Stuff" Click on that and that should take you to your order history which will have your serial numbers for all your recent purchases from EF. If not then you need to contact CP.

Unfortunately, many people purchased Miki from ef when they were using Digital River, so their order history won't show it.  If you purchased Miki prior to December 20, 2005, you likely will need to contact support to get a coupon.  We thank you for your patience.

Hi!

Yes, there is a Miki 2.0 in the works and she will be much more bendy.  She will not be G2 compatible due to her small stature, but as she is a favorite to many, we will certainly be continuing support for her.  When she is released, Miki 2.0 will be free for a limited time to anyone who purchased Miki 1.0.  Miki Collector's Edition Figure Pack is now retired.

DOCUMENTATION ERRATA/ADDITIONS

• The Poser 7.0.0 Reference Manual contains a number of glitches that were corrected in the Poser 7.0.1 Reference Manual, which is installed by the Service Release 1 updater.

KNOWN ISSUES

• Poser 7 generally runs fine under Windows Vista. There are a few issues that might require workarounds. Please refer to our Windows Vista knowledge base article for details: http://www.e-frontier.com/article/articleview/2127/1/858/

• We strongly recommend saving hair groups to the Hair library with their underlying prop. This is because hair is grown from vertices and must be associated with vertices on its underlying object in order to function correctly.

• To save hair to the Library palette, select a hair group (or its underlying prop) then click the ADD TO LIBRARY button. You will be prompted to select your desired hair subset(s). Clicking the SELECT SUBSET button opens a hierarchical display allowing you to select the hair groups that you want to save. Be sure to save the parent object!

• When saving a subset of props to the library only the currently selected object will retain its morph targets. To save morph targets on all members of the subset choose Edit->General Preferences... and uncheck "Use external binary morph targets" temporarily. Once the subset has been saved to the library, "Use external binary morph targets" may be reactivated.

• Adding a prop to the library: When adding a prop with morph targets that is parented to a figure, the prop might not retain its morph targets if Poser is set to write external binary morph targets. In case you encounter this problem, please choose Edit->General Preferences... and uncheck 'Use external binary morph targets' temporarily. Once you're done adding figure-parented props with morph targets to the library, you may reactivate 'Use external binary morph targets'.

• Texture search: In previous Poser versions, textures were occasionally specified by their file name only. Since in that case the search mechanism has to search with just the name, it will find the first texture with a matching name. Please keep your texture names unique to avoid loading the wrong texture when opening legacy scene files. Poser 7 always attempts to store an application relative path or an absolute path (whichever is appropriate) in the scene file. Also, the Poser 7 Texture Manager always displays the full path of all loaded or previously loaded textures. This will aid in determining the location of any texture file.

• Rendering in separate process: In some cases, Area Render might fail when rendering in a separate process. If you encounter this problem, please retry, render a full frame, or consider rendering internally.

• Color on the alternate diffuse channel of a root node will not preview in the document window.

• If you have difficulties using the Face room's photo matching feature due to the rotation of the head in your photos not matching the selection outlines, please consider rotating your photographs in an image editing application.

• A note on using the DivX codec when making movies: the DivX codec can only be used with standard aspect ratio (4:3).

• Some 3D file formats have restrictions in output size. In 3D Studio (.3ds), an object can consist of no more than 65,000 polygons. In Lightwave 5 (.lwo), the maximum size of a scene is 65,000 polygons. Please use the LWO2 export option if you want to export LWO files of objects larger that 65,000 polygons.

• Using the Auto Install feature in the Content room might leave temporary files behind. Please delete the files in the temp folder if you want to conserve disk space (Windows only).

• There is an incompatiblity with Unsanity's Window Shade X potentially causing an undesired Window Shade effect on Poser palettes. Please add Poser to Window Shade X' list of excluded applications if you encounter this problem (Mac OS X only).

• Library thumbnails in PNG format that contain both data and resource fork can cause instabilities. Deleting the resource fork resolves this issue (Mac OS X only).
