I'm trying to use some of Dendras' old files (the Inquisition chambers) in Poser 5, and the MAT files are all based on the old .bum format. There aren't and .jpg bump maps. When I tried the P4 method of converting .bum to .jpg (applying the .bums to a prop), it doesn't work any more. Does anybody know a way I can convert the old .bum to .jpg? Guy

In Poser 5 you can just attach the .bum file to the gradient_bump node in the material room. No need to convert, unless you want to save space.
