I've reinstalled Vue and opted for it not to access the internet which it seems to still do according to Norton. After the reinstall i updated to the latest build. Opened up Vue and loaded a scene and then closed the program. Then closed the PC down and got the same 'Vue not responding' messages again. I've now posted the problem with E-ON Tech support. Once I find out whats been happening I'll let you know. Thanks again.

Hi thank you for your replies. My version is 5.08 - Build 278365. My setup is a laptop with 1.50 GB of RAM, Pentium 4 CPU 3.60 GHz, 2x 100 GB Hard drives, Win XP Service pk 2 professional. Display is NVIDIA GeForce Go 6800. Its a custom professionally built laptop. Had no problems until recently. I've looked in Options and restored to default settings in case I have done something without knowing. Also disabled Check for content and news/tutorials. Will see if that chenges anything. I had looked in the task manager and Vue isn't visible once its closed. Hope the above helps and I will post this with E-On. Thanks once again for your help.

Hi there, After feeling defeated I thought I'd give it another go. pressed button s i had before bt maybe not in the same order and have now finally a scuba suit that fits vicky. I used the assign material button in the group tool and renamed the parts like you said. I then added my texture map and Poser seemed to do everything else. I didn't need to delete names or use an editor. Seems to render perfect as well. We shall see. Thank you for your time and help in helping me, its really appreciated. I was thinking about hitting my head against the wall. trevor

Thank you for your reply. I have made the scuba suit look right when I render in Poser. Is there a way to have the scuba suit in view without rendering all the time like the Daz Mike scuba suit? Thanks for your help
