Two possiblilities depending on what text editor you're using that I can think of... 1. Your system is configured to not show file extentions, and so although you are saving as matpose.pz2 windows actually saves and sees it at matpose.pz2.txt to fix that you'll have to make your file extentions visible in your folder settings... 2. If you used wordpad or better rather than note pad, it may have saved it in a format other that simple text...it will still look the same in the word program, but poser will not understand it...to fix that you simply have to resave it as a simple text document...you can double check in note pad to be sure it didnt through in extra characters and carrige return type stuff... If neither of those work you can email me your mat pose if you like and I'll take a look at it for you (dmentia@infoave.net)

1.) Why is it important to seek a global solution to a what is by all visible signs a localized problem? Its not really as localized as it seems, and the solution isnt as narrow as it seems...Not only would the guild help to insure quality for customers, but it will also help customers to find sites that often get overlooked...Lesser known artist who do quality work will deffinatelly stand to benefit from the additional exposure...Customers may be more inclined to trust individual artist rather than being "forced" to trust the more established business'... 2.) Do you think that this will cause consumer product confidence disparties in products that never attempted to be rated under your system? I hope it doesnt cause customers to loose faith in artist who are already established and choose not to have thier products tested, that is not the intent...Instead FMG will be geared more towards the developement of "universal" standards which may be above or below some "personal" standards...So artists who already set high standards for themselves shouldnt loose business other than in the respect that there will be more "qualified" competition... 3.) Do you plan to draw up a public list of non-subjective rating qualifications so that artists can dispute your findings if the appear to be at odds? That is the plan eventually, no negative review will ever be posted publiclly without the creators consent...This isnt about making people look bad, its about allowing those who do "quality" work to shine... 4.) Do you plan to have variable ratings, or one size fits all? The plan at the moment is fairlly variable and objective, like a report card some what...but it could change as this is one of the many things that still needs work...something that members will probablly work till CG become obsolete, as standards change to keep up with progress... 5.) Do you intend to purposely seek out products, as a guild, you find to be lacking in quality in order to have the guild replace said products with freestuff, or stuff of lesser price? (which as a side note is against the law for any organization with busniess ties to the market in question.) This has been addressed and but for the record, no...the intent of the guild is to allow quality work to shine...not to make any one look bad...or to hurt any one...(I'm curious as to which laws you are talking about though, because I'm thinking just about every company on the planet competes with competitors in exactlly that way...wether they admit it or not...A couple in particular that come to mind is Microsoft and AOL)

Hmmm...a note about sharing trade secrets...its a noble idea and all, but its not un-noble to not do so...look at Colnel(sp?) Sanders(kfc) several restraunts do it, probablly because being a chef is alot like being an artist...if you tell everyone exactlly what your secret ingredient is, it kinda looses its novelty...Look at that masked magician guy?...he kinda ruined all the old illusions for the old school magicians...because he shared "trade secrets"...if doing that were such a noble thing, then why does he still wear a mask?...I mean realistically what is the point of copywriting work, ideas or inventions if everything should be common knowledge?...What is the point of bothering to learn things on your own and push the limits of what ever you're working with if everyone should be given everything at birth?...I'm not saying sharing is wrong, I share plenty, but I am saying telling me I'm bad for not sharing something is kinda ludicrious...

As far as a guild the standard the guild uses to "grade" products, that will be decided by the guild...So if you want to monitor and add your input to what that standard should be, get involved, everyone is invited...To not join because you dont like some one already involved would be to allow those who are involved to make descisions without your input...Everyone's input is appreciated and should be heard by everyone... This guild should not be about who is who...this guild will be about quality. If we cant all put our past sqabbles that have nothing to do with quality behind us and make a mature decision as a team, then there will end up being a problem...I guess what it boils down to is whats more important to you personally?...Slitting the throat of an enemy or saving the life of a friend, I know my analogy is slightlly extreme, but if you think about it, thats what it boils down to...personally I'd rather save the life of the friend... Personal Note to Jack Never knew you well myself, didnt go rushing off to commune in your defense when all the mess went down, didnt like or dislike you personally, just didnt know enough to care one way or the other...I will say how ever that Diane was the BEST I ever worked with! I would honestlly buy from her personally before I would buy from any other store if she was selling something I needed, she'd be the first place I looked, not just her products, but products approved by Diane, I know how hard she was on me, and so I know that anything she approves is "good quality" to not have some one like Diane in this guild would be a terrible loss, and if your standards jack are like hers, then you'd be a great asset as well! Not having her around to approve my work and the work of others is kinda what made this guild such a must...Sorry not trying to blow smoke up any one's butt here, but I do miss Diane :(...

Some one sent me an email, I guess trying to get my goat for standing up for what I beleive in...Some one sympathizes with my "poor" sales...Being that I'm completelly open with the fact that I support this guild, have from the beginning and will till the end, I have no reason to hid my response to that individual...the following is my response.... First of all, my sales are excellent thanks for your consern, my health is poor, but thats an entirelly different matter... I havent attacked any one, I've defended myself and the things I believe in, and if you can't accept that about me, then I feel very bad for you...You defend your beleifs I'll defend my own...I know the market place has lost very loyal customers, there once were customers who purchased one of every new thing to hit the store, they could afford it, and they threw money around like confetti....One I know of inparticular didnt even have a clue how to use the stuff, she just collected it, had to wait until she went to visit her artist friend in another state so she could learn how to use all those wonderful goodies she had bought...Guess what happened when her friend informed her that alot of what she had bought was crap, and being that she had held on to it for so long before going to visit her friend she could not return it...She still purchases religiouslly from those merchants she found out she could trust during that venture, but she wont touch a new artist with a ten foot poll!...So in affect I didnt loose a customer, but everyone to become a merchant from that day on never got that customer...You can say I'm looking out for myself all you want, but really I'm looking out for the budding artist out there who do quality work...I feel really bad that this once loyal to renderosity customer has become loyal to only a few...She could afford to buy more from new artists, but she doesnt trust the quality control of the store enough to take chances any more...in the beginning she did...so who lost?...

I'm all for the new guild, maybe it's because I'm old, maybe it's because I have children, maybe it's because I'm just plain wierd, but I happen to think quality is about the most important thing to consider when shopping any where for anything...unless of course you're 7 years old and just got a $10 bill for your birthday...So I would love to see some sort of quality control that would allow me to know at a glance that that a product would do exactlly what I'd expect it to do with no complications...In order to have quality control there must be standards and standards do change as the community devolopes...even in the real world... But the guild didnt want to stop there, the guild also wanted to offer the best possible resources to new artists...A place where the artist could go to learn all the tricks of the trade before venturing out into the market...A place to all learn together and raise standards as the knowledge grew...6 months ago no one knew what the heck a mat pose was, and now its almost considered rude not to include them... And for this, a fairlly noble effort, a moderator looses her job, flames are flying from all directions, and the perverbial shit has hit the perverbial fan...I dont understand it...why?... Why is wanting quality control such a bad thing? Why would any merchant worth thier salt be afraid of such a thing? Why would the admins of this site be afraid of such a thing? I honestlly dont understand it...

Daz occasionally loads new products before friday, but for the most part they dont rearrange new products until friday...I'm sure the little guy will make his way to the top of new releases soon, glad you guys are finding him, he's just to cute to miss out on!
Thread: vicki's eyebrow | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
actually Anton's promo girl texture didnt come with transmapped brows...his morph slides the brows back in the head, so if you used the morph and texture you'd not be having a problem...just use the dial on v1 or v2 head to slip her brows into the back of her head and presto, no more wierd eyebrow problems, or do as daffy says with the highlight colors...

would that be Mr.Rogers "its a beautiful day in the neighborhood"? or would that be Roy Rogers?...cause Roy Rogers could deffinatelly kick some space ghost butt, while Mr. Rogers could talk his ear off, I would hardlly consider that a fatal blow... My own personal favorites for your matches Match 1 Einstein for sure, while Napolean is more tactical, Einstein is borderline crazy and has two hands availble for combat...Napolean only has one as the other is tucked firmlly in his jacket...So Einstein would be my favorite in that match for sure... Match 2 depends on how you answer my first question... Match 3 Spock for sure if they even managed to fight...which I don't see happening as Spock is to logical for combat against a holy man, and Moses is to ethical for combat against a vulcan...

Red Baron, Anton is still around, and he does check the forumns fairlly regularlly...his older bbay products have been discontinued for the reasons listed above...He's good about answering his email also if you need to contact him about specific questions or items...you can find his email link at Daz3D in the brokered section for sure! Mesh Magic, Didnt I already suggest that you try being nice every once in a while rather than always griping?...jeeze...And then you probablly sit and wonder why people gang up on you...You tell yourself its a clique, but it isnt, its just people sick of hearing all the griping...Do yourself a favor, earn some friends by being nice on occasion rather than always griping, you'll be a much happier person...Perhaps I'm wrong, maybe you're one of those people who actually enjoys having people gang up on them, because then they can fool themselves into beleiving the world is evil, and they are the only good thing left in it...wierd way of looking at things if you ask me! course you didnt ask me did you ;)...Guess you can chalk me up as being a snooty individual as well! Everyone else, Anton does do great work!...I have all of his products, and adore each and every one of them...and he just keeps getting better and better!...Occasionally I get to thinking I may be biased since I think he's such a great guy, but then I see alot of other folks talking about what wonderful work he does, so I know I'm not biased just lucky!

Thread: Carosel from Daz | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
Marque I just sent you a fix via email, please let me know if it works so I can make it availible to other pro pack users... Ronmolina The problem you're having is with all mat poses or just particular ones?...Occasionally poser freaks out on me and pretends textures arent there if I move the texture file prior to or after setting it up on the scene...but then of course I cant reload the texture because there is already a texture loaded with that name...sigh If it is loading the materials, but not loading them on the model, is it possible it loaded them to the wrong figure?...this also happens to me constantlly because I'll have the hair or something selected and try to apply the mat pose to the body, its terribly fustrating but the price we pay for conveince(sp?) Another possible idea is texture folder location, but that couldnt be it for you as you can put the materials on by hand after attempting to do it with mat pose... I don't know what might be causing the problem, but if you can send me any mat pose that doesnt work for you I'll gladlly take a look at it and see if I can help...If you've never used one of my mat poses you can find one in the Angie pack on my site and test it on victoria if you like...

Since you mentioned the UltraSalon hair by Mehndi I decided to contact her and see if we could figure out what the problem was, and we did... In an effort to make my mat files space efficient (therefore loading faster, and not taking up any more space on your hard drive than absolutelly needed) I had been deleting lines that poser 4.03 doesnt utilize, specifically the 0 0 lines in mat poses directlly under the material file path... So, my products, and mat poses work perfectlly well on 4.03 machines, but can cause a problem for pro pack users apparentlly...I will never again delete that line...and I'm terribly sorry for the inconvience... If you'd like to test it Marque since you're having trouble atm, open one of the pz2 files in word editor and insert a 0 0 line after the texture file path lines...like the following textureMap "Silverleif Studios:Carousel:carouseltext1.jpg" 0 0 If that works for you please let me know and problem will be fixed, thank you for helping me find and hopefully fix this problem!
Thread: I have just done my first prop (Marcel Breuer - Wassily Chair) and need help... | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
1.) How accurate must I work? (I want to scale a solid but end up in moving some selected meshpoints. Is this the usual way or just the wrong tool I use?) I wouldnt worry to much about scaling in your program, what I learned works best is to get the obj the way you want it, get it in obj format, then import it into poser with "Centered" and "Scale to Percentage of Normal figure" checked...It'll be bigger than it needs to be initially, but then you load your poser figure and scale the chair as a whole to fit...once its the right size, export it from poser in obj format and the next time you import it with checks out of the boxes it will be perfect size...hope that made sence... 2.) When exporting the mesh as .obj I do not see my assigned materials in Poser 3. If I use .3ds as export-format it works... Export it as an obj and then use uvmapper to assign your materials in a way that poser will understand...if I'm not mistaken your groups will besaved on obj export, so you can use them to assign materials in uvmapper... 3.) How can I determine the scaling of an object. I took 1 unit for 1 cm and have to downscale to 40 Percent what's the right way. (Is one unit in 3ds or obj 1 Inch in Poser? See answer 1, it covers this...its the easiest way to get scaling right and it works everytime... 4.) I have to texturemap chrome and leather what steps are needed to make the smallest possible map in UV-Mapper? (I've looked at some tutorials but none of them answered my questions in detail.) Stacking...don't know the best way to explain this, but it's the best way to go if you want to fully utilize the space on the template, only problem I forsee is if people want to get super detailed (ie etching on chrome part and embrodry on leather part)...best thing to do is either stack it so it only uses one type of map, or map each part individually so people can go crazy with it...final choice is yours really... Hope that helps a little!
