Sorry, I believe only Poser 4 can use transparency maps. While I think some people have found work-arounds, you won't be able to use the maps you have in their intended manner.

Wow Jim! That hair is really something else! Looks real good! Does several layers slow down poser much? I have been using two layers of trans-curls but the trans map isn't transparent enough to use more it seems. Any suggestions on how one might use, say photoshop, to make the map more transparent or something?

Tons of thanks for sharing your work! This is really great!

Ede, It looks pretty good to me! Way better than my feeble skills could accomplish! Allerleirauh, do you think we will ever see a texture map for your Trans Curls in other colors such as brunette or red? Adjusting the base color helps but just isn't the same. Any way to coax you into thinking about doing this?

Ede, do you use a tablet or a mouse? Photoshop or other? Looks very good!

Rena you really go! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful talent!

Yes, I remember Allerleirauh suggesting this method quite a while ago but with 2 layers, one scaled down. Jaager, If you get a pretty good result from your methods, could you post a pic?

Once again I,m thrilled to see continued support for my (our) favorite program! I want to express my gratitude to the whole team who worked on the patch dispite the metacreations shake-up. It means more to the end users than even they may realize! Thank you once again!

Just when I can't imagine what you could possibly do next, having done what seems like all combinations, you do it again! This is a great idea that will help everyone create their own morphs! Thanks Traveler!

I have a tongue prop I made. The one with the head didn't seem to have enough verticies to do what i wanted. It curls up and down and goes in and out. If there is any interest in it I'll post it.

BTW, the textures I tried it with ranged from 128k to 600k, so I dont know why the file is so big! maybe someone else wants to try? It seems it might be better to download 16 individual textures than a singe psd.

I tried it with 16 layers of Tim's 1200 x 1200 textures and ps5 made a 42 meg psd file. It zipped up to 27 megs. :-(

Tim you are the man! I agree with Allerleirauh though, it really would be nice if they could be 2000 x 2000! I think the collaboration idea is great, there are alot of talented texturizers(?) here (I'm just not one of them). :-)

I have done a similar project where I used several of Tims maps and layered them with varying degrees of opacity to achive the look I wanted. How about instead of a psd file, just zip up the individual layers numbered 1 through 16 as bmp, tiff or tga? this way a person can use them in any prog that suports layers with opacity. A user can easily make their own file for their individual app. There could even be many sets of these "Composite Texture Maps". Now if we could some how coax Tim...

Well, I'm one of the dummies who got windows 2000 and thought it was great, I even noticed it was faster! Then I noticed two of the brand new games I got for Christmas wouldn't run on it. After checking my other programs, I found out about 35% of my games will not run on win 2000 and many of the older progs I use (and some newer) would give me a "not a valid win32 application" error! I even had to trace down the reason why I got a "Http error" when my anti virus tried to update over the net. It was a "security" setting I had to change in administrators tools! Definately not an easier OS to use than 98. However, I will say it is more stable than 95 or 98, and a bit faster. Also I had no problems with Poser with or without the patch(es). The trade off wasn't enough for me and I've re-installed Win98 so I can run all my older progs and games. What I don't understand is why microsoft don't tell you on the win2000 box that 1/3 of your new programs and games will not run with it (self answering)! If you use and like winNT, then its probably ok, If you have Win98, keep it and save yourself time and money. I wish I had.
