Thank you Alexic, I'll try that as well.

Thanx Sam, I realize, now, what you meant and thank you much for your input, I really appreciate it.

Sam, where do I find the aspect ratio?

Karen, I haven't been able to locate that email, let me click around a bit and I'll find it. I'll PM you when I do.

Sure...make me feel stupid :-) Thanx Randym77

Randym77, I'm using version 6.0. Thank you for the tip, but is there anyway to have a workable canvas, prior to rendering, that's higher than wider? I know, it's a stupid question as I can pull the camera view out, I'm just used to Photoshop and controlling the canvas. Karen, yes I did. Give me a couple seconds and I'll try to relocate it on the site.

You got that right partner, lmckenzie , it's going to be a great game. I was in hopes that the Poser program and community would make things a little bit faster, and as you can tell from this post I went from inquisitive to anger to frustration to joy, but you all helped me through and never let me down. I wouldn't mind working with some of you for some of the graphics in this game. If you're interested please don't hesitate to ask. Just P.M. me and I'll send you a condensed summary of the game. Or both games, "Scared" and "Rage and Fury" if you'd like. And I can't say it enough, thank you ALL for your guidance. Now I can spend more money here ;)

"...if I ever decide to do something like this again--not!" Hahaha that's a riot lmckenzie, stop, you're killing me!! You did accomplish something in that it would have taken me...well, forever to do. I look at that texture and I can't help but to think of autumn, or the inside goo of the creatures from "Tremors".

OH...Sorry stahlratte, dang, all that tutorial writing, jeez, I'm so sorry!!!!! You know, I could still try to use your tutorial so it doesn't go to waste, and I will probably learn something, being new to Poser that can't be a bad thing :-)

O.k., so far so good. as it appears, this is the "what happened/happens". We purchased Poser 6 and only this version, and this is our first "Poser" program. When you install Poser 6 it also puts in a Poser 4 folder, for whatever reason. By default, the UTC program places the Mat files in the Poser 4 runtime. All I did now was move the Mat files into the Poser 6runtimelibrariespose3D Universe Pose, and retian the texture files into the original texture folder (where the original V2 textures are) and all seems to be well. I really can't thank you all your help, and a special shot out to randym77 for his continuos, persistent, nagging, support (haha, seriously though, thank you randym77, you helped me a great deal)

Thank you lmckenzie, I 'll try that next, I want to try the seperate folder idea BUT each suit has it's own texture, mat, PNG, RSR and PZ2 file. I'm only altering the Mat and texture so I don't think this sepearte idea will work, will let you know soon. If it fails i'll go right to your idea lmckenzie.

Hi Randy, But the suits are not clothing, they're a second skin, same process? And let me ask you this (might be hard to explain but I'll try) Would it benefit me to create a secondary folder for the textures as opposed to having textures for V3 and V2 in the same folder? And should I have a secondary pose folder for the same reason? I bring this up because when I double click on a suit that suit has to determine what character is on the screen on load the appropriate MAT file...? Right? If I had everything seperate would that confuse the program or force it to accept the changed textures? Hmmm...any thoughts?

I'm using Poser 6 Randy, I'm not sure the Poser 4 is there, we only purchased Poser 6. Well, I think I'm just going to start over from scratch, this just isn't working and I'm throwing money and time away. The V3 character still won't accept the V2 texture (second skin scifi suits), and the V3-to-V2 character won't accept any texture except the general face, not eyebrows, lips, eye color, just the basic shape. And it still won't accept the Renay body texture. I think we may have to pull out of the Poser family, this is just getting to frutrating which sucks because we spent a lot of money here at Renderosity. I will still play around with it a bit tonight to see if I can figure this out so who knows. I'm just very frustrated right now, I'm usually very quick with problem solving but I just feel lost. Thank you again one andall for your input, it is/was greatly appreciated.

Hang on a minute, the 3D Universe folder was in the "Poser 4" folder, not the Poser 6 one, be right back after further testing :-), (hope this works, am getting frustrated..., maybe randym77 wrote that one little word "poser 6" that might have saved me) Be right back (fingers crossed, rubbing rabbits foot, knocking on wood, holding four leaf clover, horseshoe properly mounted...wait, I'm wasting time...
