garee whats the secret in getting opengl to work on your 9600xt. it works for me with dazstudio but not poser 6

Thanks for the help . I'll get the repeater . You know I pulled out my manual last night . This is one of my first animations ,but I didn't even know where the animation palette was. I believe I've found a new friend in it. Thanks Again

for those running win2k and Poser5 sr3 having trouble with partial and stalled renders.I just updated my win2k to service pack 4, defragged my harddrives and now SR3 is running as good as sr2.1 . Poser 5 still has its querks ,but service pack 4 made sr3 usable for me.

Thanks for the advice. I found out the hard way, why CL suggests you do a complete reinstall. I'm back to SR2.1 . I will miss some of the enhancements of SR3 like the avi texturing , but the benefit is I'll be able to complete firefly renders again.

I have similar problems with sr3 . I never saw a lot of the problems people were complaining about prior to this update. I'll try to reinstall sr2.1 on top of sr3. I just wonder if anyones troubles with pre sr3 were fixed with sr3. Maybe CLs is trying to find a common point where everyones Poser 5 is messed up ,and they can begin fixes from there.

I'm not sure if this problem still exists. The old poserstyle site seemed to be up and functioning fine . I never could get a reply from my messages. I found the new site and received a reply the next day.Make sure you are sending your messages on the new site. http://64.191.53.128

bijouchat, many thanks for going out your way, taking me to school. I used the tutorial to greatly improve both my hair and eyelash transparency.The fix on the eyes was easy once I understood what the problem was.After a lot of messing around, at a distance you can't tell if the eyeball layer is there or not.I'll probably use the shortcut and just delete the eyeball mesh from now on.Anyway here is what I did to get rid of the blackeyes in case someone needs it in the future. Carrara 2 Blackeyes in Victoria 2 fix Import object as a vertex primitive create a polymesh per material In the Vertex Modeler under the Selection drop down choose Select By Name in the popup choose the eyewhite polymesh under the Selection drop down choose Move in the Move Vertices popup set "Y"= -0.001 this nudge will move the eyewhite mesh back away from the eyeball mesh eliminating the black in the eye caused by the two meshes intersection . Jaager,Mateo,Bijouchat many thanks for helping out a newbie.

I don't know whats going on,I have tried to reply twice and I keep getting kicked out to the hame page. Many thanks for all the help. I was unable to find the offending black texture on my eyewhite material.The Blackeyes prop renders fine for me,DNA eyes render with black rings around the iris. I'll try the delete the eyeball material shortcut. bijouchat,I was wondering if everyone was doing postwork on V2 eyes,great render. I'm a hardhead I still believe there is a way to make V2 eyes render correctly, so I'm going to keep plodding away ,obtaining knowledge where I can,giving it the good fight.Thanks again for the info and help.It's good to know I'm not the only one with C2 that has run into this problem.
