Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 29 7:57 am)
Ok Im patched with the new sr3 patch. Im running a pentium 3 164 megs of ram drive space sucks I got lots of models on my hard drive so my space is limited to about half a gig now. speed is 133 mhz Id like to get this fixed now but if I have to ill go out and buy a new computer with gigahertz of speed and memory,Im just wondering if I should get a descktop or a notebook.
With that kind of a system, I'm surprised you can do anything at all with P5. No offence meant, btw, it's just that P5 really requires at least 500 megs of RAM to perform basic functions with any sort of consistancy and your processor speed is highly inadequate. P5 takes up about half a gig of space just by itself. You definitely need a more powerful system.
So Im going to Buy a Area 51 Alien Hardware compute, Keeping in ind Ill need 500 megs just to open the materials editor, hope poser 5 runs faster because it looks like a great program, By the way my current system can render and load figures with no problem and all the other rooms are working, Hmm My comuter what it is must give a pretty good kick for poser 5 to even open.
I can run P5 just fine with my puny 256Mb Ram. On a P4 2GHz processor, but still, runs fine. Slower than P4 but not unbearable. The reason why I mostly use PPP is coz that's the one I'm more familiar with. And of course it IS a little bit faster. Poser 4 is on it's own physical HD while P5 is just crammed in somewhere on my "all the other stuff" HD. Doesn't seem to matter too much. I'm sure it'll run faster with more RAM, but saying that P5 can't run with anything less than 512 is nonsense.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
Using Poser since 2002. Currently at Version 11.1 - Win 10.
Open the file /runtime/prefs/Poser UI Prefs_.xml in a text editor. Then look for
""
The following line should start with
"<CustomData winLeft="35" winRight=...".
This line contains for values that look like this:
materialFrameLeft="423" materialFrameRight="1045" materialFrameTop="115" materialFrameBot="881"
These determine ths size of the material window. Edit to your needs and save.
Occasionally the material room has to take it's good ole time to open. On your system, it could be a lack of resources. I have 1.5GB RAM, the pause is probably about 5-7 seconds, and doesn't happen all the time. It only has this with the Material room. You must be quite patient to run P5 on less than 2GHZ of processor.
Late on this but, I would save that little old pc, put a plant on it, and rub it every morning for good luck with your new one. This problem may return.. try minimizing whole window and restore. then hit poseroom. close parameter box (gets printed through sometimes). hit materialroom again. No good? Look at bottom bar of your screen. Is there a button that says open? Right click and close. This is all I have on this at this point. P5 wigs out if there are any overlaps of screen functions. "Tools" look a little close to the Pose tab, for example.
