Hi. Just downloaded the serpent mappak for Dazs' mertail and am somewhat confused. It states in the advertisment that there are "17 MAT Pose File Sets". I took this to mean 17 poses for V3 in the mertail. I can't find any poses at all. So if someone that bought it can tell me if they recieved poses or that I'm misunderstanding what "17 MAT Pose File Sets' means I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Bill

MAT Pose Files are not poses, they are textures changes.... MAT stands for MATERIAL

I can see were there might be some confusion and it would probley have been nice to have a pop up with the mats shown. The 3 textures are shown matted as well as the trans map . 3 Textures , 1 BumpMaps , 1 TransMap , 17 MAT Pose File Sets Some times buying things at Daz's is like getting a gift from some one , Yah never know what going to be inside it.

Tasquah, Thanks for the reply. That's some real strange wording from daz. The seventeen number still doesn't make any sense. There are nine files 1 bodyhandle on, 1 bodyhandle off, 1 scale bump, three texmaps, and three transmaps. So where do they come up with 17 file sets? Is one file set 1 trans,1 bump, and 1 tex, and another file set is the same trans and the same tex without the bump. And then those two file sets become 4 if you add body handle on, and then 8 if you add body handle off. I'm begining to rant. The upshot is that I assumed that declaring the 17 mat pose sets as a separate enity from the matpose items, (tex,bump,trans) was a typo and they meant honest to goodness poses which is why I bought it. Thank God it was only $1.99. Again thanks for the reply. Bill, from the fog shrouded hills of Houston

Looks like they just forgot to change that line. It's actually for the complete set in the premium store.

You know, if you take your complaint to DAZ instead of here, they will bend over backwards to make it right.
