Sorry I haven't been about much recently, personal problems are keeping me very busy at the moment, I won't sidetrack this thread with the details, look for an OT post shortly if you're curious.

Are you my brother cause they sound exactly like my parents? hahahaha Last year I tidied up their desktop by auto arranging the icons & my dad went spare accusing me of losing all his stuff.

If all else fails, wipe Windows off & put Linux in it's place.

Quote - Ha! You did!

I'll fix this in the next update. In the meantime just make sure you have a light in your scene :-) You must need one to see what you're doing in the Preview room?

Remember, if you name your light "ignore:Light name" (or whatever) then it is automatically put into the 'ignore' group and not exported, so there's ne especial reason to not have a light in the scene.

Still, it'll be fixed next time around anyway!

I'd forgotten about the ignore function, make it idiot proof & you can be sure some idiot (me) will come along & break it. :D

I'm getting this

"Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "L:Poser developmentPloppose2luxpro.py", line 5694, in ?

AttributeError: pageLights instance has no attribute 'varGroup'"

from the pro version when I try running it with no lights in the scene.

I broke it again, YAY! :lol:

Thanks Laurie :D

Another quick silly question, in the viewer is it a top down view of the light

Now that you've mentioned a new toy for us to play with I thought I'd hunt down a couple of IES files, so far I've found 7,800 different ies files neatly tucked away on 3 websites. WHAT do I do with them?

Maybe he got banned again.

Back to the original question, Smith Micro (or whoever owns the Poser franchise next) should keep including content with Poser. Beginners should not be expected to buy the latest Daz figures just to be able to use Poser.

If/When you can afford it, feed it Windows 7 & some of MG's cookies & it'll be a much happier machine, or you could eat the cookies yourself. ;)

It's not running Vista is it? I'm beginning to suspect Vista is just a repackaged WinME due to all the problems it has.

I made a materials folder inside the Pose2Lux folder & it seems happy enough to load from there, I have switched off UAC though.

Wow! I haven't even had a chance to try 0.8.6 & you've got the next version ready. :D

Quote - There are Studio SDKs: one is just the script reference and the other is a repackaging of Qt for C++ developers. The first one is 0$, the second one was (last time I checked) also 0$.

...I am not bashing Studio, I am doing what makes me universally hated: telling the truth. Hard facts. Just the facts, madam. Numbers (...those things which have the bad habit of adding up in a way people don't like...).

I wasn't sure if it was free or not that's why I asked a question in place of making a statement, I'm glad there are people around who bring hard facts to the discussion, keep up the good work. :D

Quote - Then, by that argument, you could buy more pairs of knickers if you used the free version of DS instead of buying Poser.

Very true & it also comes with free content to get you started.

Quote - See whatcha mean, Lucifer.

At least it proves I'm not totally nuts, not yet anyway.  

Poser seems to have picked up a bug somewhere, when I open a pz3 files & go into the Materials room I get a nice little CTD & it's driving me batty, anyone know a way round it? or can you explain why it's my fault?
