I just sent an e-mail to sales@daz3d.com maybe they will kick these guys in the butt.

Thanks for the reply Eowyn, I know that they are very prompt about send me their latest advertisements. I think I have received two since my request.

I have Windows XP and IE6. Sometime within the last couple of weeks I started having the same problem as droyd. Droyd's solution (above) worked for me. Thanks droyd!

Yes, the one that I have has 6 different materials. I think I got it at 3D Cafe. But, like you said, your passed the point of needing that now. It makes what you done so far even more impressive to me though. Keep us posted on your progress. Think about a bump map for the seat inserts. That would really be a nice touch. I think the side panel on the body is stainless steel with a ribbed effect. I have a nice 55 Buick Century (they were much faster than the chevys of that era by the way) that I bought from TurboSquid. It was originally a taxi cab, but I removed all of the taxi crap. Good luck.

ROTFLMAO Ashlyn! But so true. I for one am looking forward to the results of Duddly's project. I tried remapping the 57 Chevy awhile back and really made a mess of it. I really like your body color. I remember that the dash and whitewalls have the chrome texture on the original model.

Its Tanya Harding!!!

Congrats Mjtdevries! What was the fastest Dell computer? Since they're so excellent they should be right at the top of the list right? And if they seem to be a bit slower than our home-built rigs, maybe their fine and indispensable technical support people can enlighten us as to why this is so? Dell has an easy payment plan too...only $90.00 per month for 48 months (with your good credit) and you can get one built for you! Oh, that doesn't include the extended 3 year service plan, but for a few bucks extra, they can roll that into your installment plan. Imagine paying $90.00 a month in that 4th year. It would be like owing over $1,000 on a 4 year old computer! Like P.T. Barnum said "There's a sucker born every minute" None for me thanks.

It would definently be useful to me. This is really nice!

Baby Fishmouth!

Thanks TJ Miller, jr!! I bought the building on Sunday and have been trying to download the Deco Room and Motel for the last three days to no avail and then along comes TJ Miller, Jr and saves the day. LOL Thanks to both of you. I am still collecting textures to do the building justice. I would be interested in any type of Art Deco architecture that you can come up with. There are a million ideas, theatres, gas stations, apartment buildings, houses etc. I love Art Deco!

Poor, poor whimpypooter..... You must have had the AVI guy on.

I know this has been mentioned before, but for those who don't know, your video card has absolutely nothing to do with your rendering time as far as Poser is concerned. The cheapest 256kb ISA card (if they ever even made them) should theoretically perform as well as the lastest GeForce 4 in Poser. Everywhere else, a good video card makes a difference but not here. And another thing..... There is a certain satisfaction that comes from building your own computer using components of your own choosing and then seeing it perform at levels well beyond those of the "off the shelf" systems costing twice as much. "Can we build one for you?"....LMAO!

Excellent image! Having said that, I think Prince Albert looks a little out of place here. I noticed a couple of nice cans at the Props Guild that may suit him. Just kidding, I really like this image. It definently has an aura of antiquity about it.

I posted the 37 second score with my Athlon 1800+ and the 81 second score with my P3 850. I just wanted to point out that the Athlon has DDR RAM and both machines have had the AVI side-stepping man turned off for weeks.
