Just messing around today, I took a figure with 6 body parts, deleted 3 and saved, then deleted the other 3 and saved that. I now have 2 cr2s that ref 3 body parts each out of 6 in the obj. Well, of course, when I opened them, the 1st one was fine, 3 parts, but the 2nd only showed the principal actor, the parent of all the others. I opened them in reverse order, # 2 first, and the situation was reversed. #2 was ok, but #1 only had the main actor. So, I guess this is because the geom rsr is hard-coded for a certain number of actors or something and trying to kid it won't work. Is there a way to do this? I doubt it, but it could be nice. For instance, if you know you're going to upgrade a product, you could build all the necessary parts into the obj, but only reference part of the actors in the initial cr2. Then the 2nd cr2 would ref the rest without a new obj or over-writing the old. This would also perhaps help distribution and anti-piracy, since people would have to have the original obj in order to use the 2nd cr2. mac PS and, yes... I did delete all 3 statements for each actor.
