Attached Link: V3 looses her face in Vue

When I import V3 from Poser 4PP in Vue4.11 as a Pz3 file, the head texture is invisible. All the other texture parts work fine, no problems with other Poser Charakters. It happens with all ( 3 different ) head textures i tried out.

Checked the link, can't see anything wrong with her face, she does seem to turn into wireframe from the waist down though. Maybe you should consider giving her some clothes?

From Burni: I missunderstood that link. This goes to my Website, but it's wrong, it was a mistake by me, on my Website you will not find a picture of that problem. Sorry, burni

No need for you to say sorry, I knew that! Just me having a silly joke:) I'm the one who should say sorry.

Well, not that it is of much help to you, but I can import V3 with textures from poser 4 to vue 4.11, as a pz3. I used the V3 fashion model face maps, and I'm having no problems with them in Vue. BTW, I'm assuming that if you render that pz3 in poser, that you have no problems with missing head textures. Maybe you can also post a picture that shows the problem, and hopefully someone can give you a solution for your problem then. Greetings, Rynn.

This is Burni again Here's the pic of what happens. Now I also tried with the V3 fasion model maps, still failed. I've tried the maps as jpeg, bmp and tiff, still failed. Then I raised my hands to heaven and begged for help, still failed. I hope anybody is out there who can help. Thank you in advance, Burni

How odd. I don't think the textures are the problem. It seems the entire head is missing.

I've imported V3 many times into Vue without having the problem you show here - this looks like something was not selected or marked invisible in Poser so that when you brought it into Vue, it is not there. Check in your Heirarchy Editor in Poser to make sure nothing is turned off. :) Irene

Sorry, but the picture looks great to me - style like this surreal artist Rene Margueritte! Post it in the gallery and lie that you wanted it like this -LOL! Bernie

Keep cool and fight for the right of others

You're right! Looks just like a work by Magritte!

This is burni again: Rynn replied that the entire head could be missing. So what can I do? The head is in the figure I think.

Just from looking at it I can tell you what is wrong probibly. I wrote you a reply before but Renderosity went down. Illegal character an the file names. The computer uses english rules for file saved on the drives. Computers are not mutiligual only the texts that you read on them is. It's all based on english underlying code. I see if I can find that post cause I did save it here somewhere. See I saved it. I went threw all the trouble of typing it out then I couldn't post it... Well one thing you may want to check, I'm not sure how poser works in Vue but you can still check textures reguardless where the mesh came from in Vue no problem. Click on material summery then click on the face texture. You know the one that's clear. Look at the first tab on that new texture that opens. Is it set to mapped picture? Is there a picture name in the field? Like where it says mapped picture. Is there a name there for a file? Cause if there is no name there then the file cannot be found and that's the problem, If there is a texture name there then click on load and browse to the file and load it again. Problem should be solved IF it can read the file. You should see it there in the preview window now. Chances are the file is missing and that is why it is not showing up. Like it can't find the file, can't read the file or some other problem. Can you actually see the file open in a program? Check for capitol letters or weird characters in the file name (-~ or others. Rename the file to something simple and remap the mesh with that new file. Chances are it's a file name problem. Like it has capitol letters and the mesh has small letters or spaces and no spaces. Computers don't guess if it can't find it too bad you get weird results, it don't care. YOU are doing something wrong cause lots of people have got this mesh to load no problem. It's probibly simple so start with the obvious like file names then file types. Don't expect it to open a jpg if the mesh is written to open a bmp. Sometimes textures maps get lost importing into vue but the above browse to the folder and load it again over top will fix it no problem and easily. Try it. Poser is not the only program that does this. It has to do with the file not being found. Drop a exact copy in the Bitmap folder in Vue cause if it's not found Vue always looks there next if it don't show up the first time. Gives a whole new meaning to Face off in the corner !
