what you're looking for is Mazs' objaction mover... should be in FreeStuff under that name

Objaction Mover is in free stuff, check under Utilities (3rd page in) or do a search for Maz, who created this wonderful programme. What Mover does is encrypts and decodes OBJ files. If you create a garment for the P4NF which relies on a modified version of a Zygote mesh, you cannot distribute the modified OBJ becuase the copyright belongs to Zygote. But, that would mean you can't distribute your garment 'cause no-one else will have the modified mesh. This is where Mover comes in. Using the original unmodified mesh as a seed, it creates an encoded PCF file for your modified mesh. You can distribute this PCF file (non-commercially) with the CR2 of your garment. When your garment is downloaded, it can be decoded by using Mover again. However, you've got to have the original, unmodified mesh on your computer to decode it. In this way, it prevents the distribution of Zygote's copyrighted mesh. Can't help you on the book I'm afraid Paul

Best source of information on Poser is right here, go back in the archives of this forum and read all the messages on peoples' problems - every problem your going to have and every question has probaly be answered already! Which brings up a thought - Jack aught to publish a book from this, it is a gold mine of information, but I'm sure if he would have the copyright to do that, without contacting every person who wrote a reply. There is also the problem that computer stuff is starting to move to fast to be covered by books published the tradional way, by the time it is out it is obsolete.
