Grrrrrr.....been up all night trying to get this to work. How do I select only the polygons that are missing????? Do I use wireframe??? If so how do I know what ones are the reversed ones? Im really about ready to pull my hair out over this...I can see that they are reversed but I cant seem to select only the bad ones........ I really need help now Thanks again raptordude

Thanks stewer......that seems to be the trouble. It fixes some of it but then leaves "holes" in the mesh in some areas. I select the forearm then reverse the normals for it. The areas that were ok before now have holes......guess i have to work on this and try to figure out what it is doing. Thanks for the help raptordude

Thanks for all the help. beryld yours was the answer that fixed it. Im a happy camper now......... Again Many thanks for all the help raptordude

Thank you.....Thank you....Dash and randym77 that fixed it. Once again a simple fix for my "major" problem hehehehe Thanks again for the help raptordude

Thanks for the come-back but........ I do have the display set for texture shaded. If I turn off all lights then it looks much better.... this just looks over lighted or washed out some how. I have not had this trouble with any other model.... just this one. Like I said in the first post....When I started with this one the Highlight size was set to 100.0000.....dont know why.....I set them all down to 1.00000 and that helped somewhat. Thanks for the help raptordude

oooooook.... this is what the figure should look like..
I have loaded all 5 figures in by hand and conformed them to figure 1....
Sorry no custom fitting or post work...just fast load

I used all of the paths that were set out in the cr2 file.....

Everything works fine....no lag....no overload...no lock ups....

Has to be something in the cr2 file that is sending poser to never never land....hehehehe

This whole thing is no real problem but.......I just would like to know why it won't load from the cr2 file the way it should.

I have even gone back and downloaded the zips again but I get the same problem.

Thanks for all the help
raptordude

Thanks for the come back Twisted....

This is the line out of the cr2 file for Raider:

figureResFile :Runtime:Geometries:P4NudeMan:blNudeMan_Gen.obj

the obj file is located at that path.
I get no "file not found" message at all.

nothing shows up in the working window But under the window on the left side it says that a/some figure is loaded in.
When i try to click on anything (move camera etc) i lose the cursor and poser goes into overload/crash .....the more i try to click on things the worse it gets....ending with ctl-del-end program....
Im just about ready to trash the whole thing.....but it bugs me not knowing the why-for.....

Thanks for the help

raptordude

It uses the P4 nude male and the ref is correct
figureResFile :Runtime:Geometries:P4NudeMan:blNudeMan_Gen.obj
This is the line from the cr2 file
it also uses about 6 other obj files and i have checked the location of all of them and they are right were they should be.
If the utility can find all the parts then poser should be able to find them also........but that's only the way i look at it heheheheh
Im still working on this.....trying ......trying ....trying

raptordude

The Raider is a add on for the p4male..... The utility by ockham (new one) checks the cr2 file and list all the locations of all items needed by the figure. If it cant find something then it tells you what items it cant find (great utility) I have also looked at the cr2 file with notepad and and the file paths seem ok. Im as lost as poser is on this one... Thanks for the come back raptordude

OK thanks for the info....should I use forward / for the whole path or just from the end of Poser 5???????
This is the part Im confused on......in the log file it shows back slash up to poser 5 then forward / after that.

Hope im not confusing you with this but it has me confused hehehehhe

Thanks again

raptordude

Great utilities......thanks

I used the cr2 and the pp2 ones and all is well....

I tried the pz3 one and it just sends poser off into never never land......hmmmmmm

Why does it change format from c:programs to / after pose 5 ?????

Maybe this is why I am having trouble with the pz3 one.....I (we) have the type in the whole path.....so I dont know what to use..... or ////////??????

Any Help?????

Thanks Niles......turning off the smooth polygons did the trick for me. Great to get help so fast. Thanks to all raptordude

heheheh right Mason the spear Is "that pile of brown stuff" thats what i mean. the inset if the top of the spear (what is should look like) but when i rendered it turned into a "pile of brown stuff" thanks raptordude

On page 354 of your poser book it tells you where all the diff files go in poser.
if its a prop then it goes with the props
if its a figure then it goes with the figures

just follow the book and it will be easy

all texture files go in textures

hope this helps

take care
