Charlize Theron?

I read what you said about the clothes and that's not really in Poser's purview. They don't make the clothes, vendors do. And they're made in different apps. Also, to my knowledge, and I'm more than willing to learn something new, all mesh is infinitely thin. Is there an app that makes a thicker mesh?

MODO and Marvelous Designer both have thicken options. I haven't used them but they're there.

you could download the Silo trial (good for 7 days) and try to push it apart if it's only strips that are too close to each other and not poly's in more than 1 strip of geometry

I have read all the 10 actual pages of this thread (most of them way too technical for me that I am a simple user not a content developer). Apparently no one mentioned that in Poser 11.2 80% of Python scripts got lost or broken. (Bad magic number error, don't even know what sort of whitchcraft it is lol) A lot of them were already broken in older Poser versions (like my beloved Aery Soul and Surreality ones...) but now I can't use no more a bunch of materials and 2nd skins and this is honestly a shame for me since I often played with those in my renders. So my wish for the new update or eventually future versions is: restoring python scripts and / or retrocompatibility with older stuff. Is it possible? Pretty pretty please? With chocolate on top? :-*

try snarly's script (it fixed mine) https://poserlounge.nl/DiverseDLFiles/AVFix.zip

Thank you Miss B - I wasn't a Beta Tester so didn't go look :)

I don't know. That's kinda like saying having a keyhole makes it easier for a crook to pick your lock.

Believe what you want

Now consider how many phone home apps people are running on a given machine. A pattern is generated. It's easily identified.

I'm guessing that "locate a running instance" means that they copied the serial number BECAUSE the software was online.

They don't copy the serial BECAUSE the software is online, it just gives them access while they're port surfing. If your software didn't have to phone home periodically you wouldn't be exposed.

Guess we will see if they keep it in PP12 and stepp into SM's shoes

@ Wolf , it does not prevent Piracy it provokes Piracy . If you run your legal licence it will be affected from the call home it will even periodically send a lock to get all SM versions down even if they have Permanent licences. If you run a unregistriert versions there servers will not be able to get into your system and leave you alone , so there goes honest people!

That's hokum. Locking my door when I go out does not provoke people into wanting to break in. I believe that people who pirate things, including software, are already inclined to do so, if for no other reason than to feed their own egos by proving that they can pirate it. Same reasons some people hack and steal.

The point is the phone home facilitates piracy. My legal copy of Windows 7 at 1 point started giving me the not legit screen. I called Microsoft and they gave me a new activation code, they also told me that my serial number (which I purchased at Newegg) had been used over 10,000 times and that all the pirates had to do (we have continuous internet connectivity now) was just locate a running instance and copy the serial number. They weren't surprised at all.

Okay, then, how does it make it easier to commit piracy?

They don't need to generate a serial number that will read as "legit" - they get yours. They do a little port surfing and see what machine they can get into, check what software it's running and copy away :)

Take the side panel off and leave it off (or even both of them) (if you haven't already). I ran one of mine like that for years and it was fine.Just get the canned air and blow it out periodically. Poor man's water cooling lmao

That might -or might not- exacerbate the problem. A chassis channels airflow around/past each component before exhausting the now-heated air out the back; if the side panel is off, the intake air can blow out that big opening, leaving RAM et cetera baking.

One option is to install extra fans. I often add fans to the exterior rear, using thermal glue. This especially extends the life of battery/surge units (UPS). To power fans on UPS boxes, get a cheap ($14) 450W power supply, and use half of a paper clip as a jumper between these two sockets of the main 24-pin connector to turn it on:

I manage to build my computers but if I started messing with paper clips and electricity I'd probably blow up the house :)

I'll read your instructions a few times and think about it - like your cars and the color coded receptacles are stellar.

I'm not sure if Adobe Premiere and After Effects can use external renderers? Besides, both our computers need down time - it's very very hot here in Brazil. So we can't really depend on using the other computer while the other person isn't using it.
