Where is the link to download? I found the page with the pic and links to TurboSquid, but I only want the free lo-res version.

Maybe you keep getting the same message because Poser is asking for the map on each body part. So, keep pointing it to the correct map, and after a multitude of times, you will get to the end of the process and the maps will work. This happens to me sometimes. Once you finish the process, it will not occur again for that model/texture combination.

BYS, I did not mean to imply anything negative about your art. Truthfully, I try to learn as much as I can about my digital tools. I also come from a traditional art background, and I paint guitars and cars. I cannot, however, manufacture the media. I wish I could create my own acrylic lacquer, as it was the very best paint for airbrushing. As far as I know, it has been banned. I was once a very good mathematician, but 2 head traumas seem to have damaged that ability, along with most of my senses of smell and taste. You are the type of person many of us reach out to, for help. Please keep in mind, most users of Poser are not professional artists, nor are they math geniuses. Maybe with some help from you, many can bridge some of the gaps in their knowledge and be assisted toward becoming what you already are. I do sell my work made with Poser. Since Imagine has some major compatability issues with Poser, my modelling cannot be taken advantage of here. Poser is great for comics, so I use it. Soon I plan to buy Carrara2. Then I can produce Poser-related models. -fritz

"Dammit Jim, I'm just a country artist, not a mathematician!!" to paraphrase Dr. McCoy. BYS obviously knows his stuff. If I have to learn all of that just to use Poser, the entire concept is self-defeating. I would never get any art accomplished. I could do without the condescending attitude. If we were all like BYS, our art would be similar, thus boring. Sorry, some of us are less educated than others. I would use the parenting workaround, but for some odd reason the menu will rarely scroll. Maybe I need more RAM. In 15 years using Imagine, I never once had anything like Gimbal Lock. It must use a different math system.

I got it about 8 times last week. NAV running current defs stopped it.

I get gimbal lock on infinite lights often.

Poser is not my first or only 3d app. I have used Imagine since 1989. It never exhibited any spatial manipulation flaw of this sort. Thanks to everyone who helped pookah69 and myself with their answers.

Pookah69, I was not referring to you. You asked a very good question. I have seen many people ask for info about this, and none of the answers were helpful. I now notice that "poser" actually offered something helpful. Sorry if I offended you. I meant no reference to you or your question. I get the gimble lock with figures, not only props. It would be wonderful to learn how to stop it from occurring.

It happens to me a lot. So far, whenever it is mentioned in the forums, anyone that seems to know about it gives the smug, smart-assed comments. So how do you circumvent it?

Ulf's has multiple segments - very posable. Trav's Morphworld3 had some stuff in an archive.

Try baument.com I seem to recall storefront or movie theatre front with signs. 3dmodelz may also have freebies of streetscapes.

The Platinum Club is a great deal. It is worth joining just for the LisaB texture/mat sets. -fritz

Preposterous offer! Does that even cover the electricity consumed during the work? Why is anyone even trying to help this trawler? 1 minute per pic??!!! If it is so fucking easy, why don't you just make your cheap-ass pics yourself, loser! -fritz

I am off to join up. This is a great idea, thanks. -fritz

Could you give a more accurate link? I have looked around the Big-I site, and the only free items I find are links to other sites. thanks, -fritz
