Thank you!

How do I change the number of processors used by Poser 7 on my quad core?  where do I change the number 'threads or processors?  I cannot seem to find it.

Thanks for any reply other than 'You are a moron!'

Mariner:

I only relate my own experience, and cannot speak for any one else.  My prejudices are that I see them doing something that I (a non-programmer and poser hobbyist) thought should have been done long ago.  For instance, why can a much larger lot like the serial Poser owners not handle face room algorithms for more than their included characters?  I also see no reasonable alternative.  I have used the program to generate faces for Aiko, Steph3, V3, V4, M3, Sydney, James, Posette, Judy, Don and V2, and they come into Poser directly, with results as good as anything I have seen from Facegen, at 10 times the upgrade price.  I do not go in much for 'celebrity' likenesses, but the prices on those are pretty stiff.  Finally, it is possible that I do not get as irritated as easily as I should, since I deal with Government officials on a daily basis.  Now that is maddening. 

I get the impression that they are a very small enterprise (1.  Their adverts are often goofy and contradictory, as though the preparer never asked 'how does this communicate?'  2.  The code is apparently addressed to best work in an XP environment, which suggests the programmers are few, and the operation small.)  

There is a web site:  www.abalonellc.com

They are very helpful with support, and the program is well worth the price.  All you need to do is avoid using the included template heads if you have your own character.  (Export from poser, process in Faceshop, import morph and apply texture. )  A little post work is a small matter for the quality you get for the price.

Unless there really is a reason to uncompress the file, might you not solve the problem by saving the file back on itself after loaded?  Poser should simply change the path in the saved .cr2, and the reference is preserved.  Maybe?
