Can anyone show me how to get poser transparency maps to show up in vue 4 after i have exported a character using the wavefront obj mode? Particularly, the eyes become solid white....all the other textures work fine (after i tell vue where to find them) but i can not get the transparency maps on the eyes to work...can any one help?

Unless your are doing something that requires textures other then those assigned in Poser, Why are you exporting as a .obj file? Importing the pz3 file will automatically assign the proper texture and transmap. But to answer your question, you'll have to assign a tranparency value in the mat editor set global transparency to 100% and then edit the function and place the transmap in the "mapped values" Hope that helps

Raitan, 1. update to Vue 4.12 2. import your Poser 4 scenes into Vue as Pz3 3. You have NOTHING to do more, because Vue 4.12 imports perfectly Poser Pz3 with all transparencies and bumps. You DON'T NEED to set transparency as Enforcer said. That's wrong. This happend only in older Vue versions. BTW:Poser has to be closed before you import to Vue. :-)Guitta guittalogo.GIF
