Hey Linda. You seem to be surfing all the poser sites. I had a list of sites and lost it and thought I would ask. You have a list of sites with node/Material room tutorials? P6 preferrably. Cheers, Anton

I do have some, yes. But what exactly are you looking for? The links to threads here (I have many), or off site ones? Or just material room tutorials in general (again I have many bookmarked)?

These links apparently are going to change once the new changes happen on Monday. I'm taking the time to save the pages of each Renderosity bookmark that I have to my hard drive and I'll do up a new list once I search out the threads again for myself.

Apparently according to Karen in this thread (post 7), bookmarked links will no longer work. You'll have to search them out again. I'm saving the threads to my hard drive so I can look at them and find key words to search them out again.

After the change over of the forums tomorrow, the Renderosity links at the above link will be invalid. I've saved the pages to my hard drive so I can research them out. Once I've done that I'll post an updated list of material room tutorials/help threads that I've managed to save.

But are the message ID's going to change? If the ID's stay the same, you should be able to convert them to the new URL quite mechanically. In fact, any links INSIDE the forums should be converted by renderosity. It is very easy, as long as the forum and message ID's are staying the same.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

According to Karen she said that no bookmarked links will work. I don't know anything about ID numbers.

If the thread numbers don't change (the product numbers didn't), I find it strange that there isn't going to be a redirector to translate the old URLs into the new ones.

When RDNA updated to the new version of Bondware. the url's all broke. So I would bookmark just in case.

Not to be a bother, but did you ever update these links somewhere? All of the above that point to a R'osity forum message are broken :(

I haven't updated them as yet. It was quite time consuming to do it the first time around. i have been working on a new updated list, but am taking my time doing it.

Thank you so much :) That will make it so much easier for me. Now all I have to do is add new ones instead of fixing the old.

ok..since I've had Poser 5 for about..what..3 days..;) Does any of this stuff refer to Poser 5, or does it come only with Poser 6? (Heck, I haven't even ventured into the 'rooms' yet..;)

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit

anahl nathrak uth vas betude doth yel dyenvey..;)

Most of it is for Poser 5. The ones for Poser 6 I think I labeled "poser 6". However, most of them should work in Poser 5 unless it involves a new node that is only found in Poser 6, but you'll quickly find that out if you look in the material room and don't see the node listed. Gather Node is one that Poser 5 doesn't have.

Hi, they weren't deleted actually, the links just changed when the forums were changed to php. I didn't get around to upgrading the links again, so nruddock was kind enough to do it for me. Scroll down to near the bottom of page 1 and you will see the new links.

Once all of the complaints about Poser 7 and chatter about V4 dies down and I can see the forest for the trees so to speak in the forum, I'll look for Poser 7 related material links and post them. However, if someone is feeling ambitious, please feel free to go ahead and do that ;)

I like the new features, almost what they did with the morphing tool (that is really kewl). But it really is full of bugs hope they will fix soon

Adding a few more to the list. Mostly Poser 6 but should work in Poser 7. Many should work in Poser 5.

If you have a bookmarked link that doesn't work here, take the numbers from the end of the link and put it at the end of the following:

I'm also very interested in knowing whom let the old bookmark syntax go, and for what reason? I thought the thread you mentioned would be a good place to start, before I make a new thread, and cross-post.

Sorry, I don't remember what thread she mentioned broken links. I think it had to do with a change in servers or something. However, if you post in the community forum, they will hopefully give you a satisfactory answer.

Just updating this with a link to another shader, and giving more information on how to use Matmatic:

Matmatic Leather Shader

It's super easy to use. Unforutnately I was over thinking stuff and had trouble, hehe

1. Unzip matmatic to your Poser runtime. Not to an external one, right into your Poser runtime. It's in proper runtime structure, so do not move any files around. The script sits directly in the "Python" folder and not in the "scripts" subfolder. Do not move it.

2. Matmatic comes with some scripts. There are others too. See the second page of the"Shaders & Nodes" thread for a list of relevant RDNA threads for more scripts.

After you have unzipped matmatic to your Poser runtime, open Poser.
File/Run Python Script
Browse to the Python/Matmatic folder and select the script.
Run it. That's all. You won't see anything visible except a message in the window saying something about compilation complete. That means that Matmatic read the scripts and generated material files that you access in the material room just like any other materials. It's not like Wardrobe Wizard where you have to run the script each time.

After you have run Matmatic and it has generated shaders based on the scripts it read, you can go to the material and use the shaders/materials just like you would any other material in your materials library.

If you want to add a button to your python scripts window in Poser, follow the instructions in this thread. Dimension3D explained to me how to add an extra button, and to even make a subscript button where you can have as many scripts in there as you want.

Go to the material room and locate your poser libraries material folder. Look for "Matmatic Demos". Inside are the materials that Matmatic generated when you ran the script.

NOTE: Matmatic generates errors if you have your files are compressed. If you compress your files, uncompress them before you run Matmatic.

If you want to add more scripts, go to the links I posted in the shaders&Nodes thread, and locate the script attachments in the RDNA threads. Open the text file because you are going to save it.

Decide on a name IE: ReptileScales and browse to your Poser/Library/Materials/Matmatic Demo folder. Create a new folder in there called "ReptileScales" Then save the text file to that folder and call it "ReptileScales.mm1.txt"

**Each mm1.txt script file has to have it's own separate folder.
**Then go into Poser and run the Matmatic Python Script to generate the shaders/materials from that script you have just save.

That's all there is too it. Unfortunately matmatic is a script only, and doesn't generate .png files. So the materials are shown in the material room library as the shrugging man icon. If you want thumbnails, open a primative, apply the material and render a 91 x 91 thumbnail and save it as a .png file with the same name of the shrugging man icon you are replacing.

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi

ok this will now be a dumb question.
but what are the chances that my computer or poser crashes with matmatic?

ice-boy---the only times matmatic has actually crashed my Poser (i've run it in P5 & P7) is with scripts i tried to write myself. bagginsbill's scripts run fine, as do most of the others that you might find. once it's set up properly the program runs quite well, & the shaders are spectacular.

Hi, my namez: "NO, Bad Kitteh, NO!" Whaz yurs?
BadKittehCo Store BadKittehCo Freebies and product support

And you only need to run matmatic once, it's not an "each time" thing. The only time you need to run it again is if you add new scripts to the "Matmatic Demo" folder. If you don't, then run it once and that's it...the shaders are generated and ready to access in the Material Room.

Define crash.

Whar version of Poser? If you're using P7 you have to get the P7 matmatic. P7 python is different.

i have poser 6.
my windows crashed 2 months ago.
lie i said it is maybe nothing but i dont want to have problems with my poser or windows.

so there are no problems with matmatic right?

Nobody has reported any, which is why I never updated the Beta - its been a YEAR with no software updates since the original "preview". I really should put out a new one.

if you do something wrong, it does kick back python errors, though. it's not as if there's a fancy gui alert to tell you what's gone wrong (not that there should be, i'm not sure how it would even work that way). so if you run it and you get an error, you just need to change something. the error should tell you what went wrong and where (what file, what line).

that said, errors shouldn't break anything, so don't fear them, either. basically, matmatic works perfectly, but that doesn't mean you'll never encounter errors.

Yes that's why I asked to define "crash". Crashing does not mean reporting problems but still running. Crashing means catastrophe - like when a program just disappears without detecting and reporting its own error, or stops with an error and cannot procede at all, not even to acknowledge human input to procede.

Being in the software biz, the words crash, hang, abort - these all refer to very specific behaviors. If you're talking about matmatic reporting an error in your script, that is not a crash, or hang, or abort.

And for the same reason I'm curious about this quote:

*"ice-boy---the only times matmatic has actually crashed my Poser (i've run it in P5 & P7) is with scripts i tried to write myself."
*Crash? You sure you mean crash? Or do you mean "tells me there is an error in my script". You guys need to know that when you say a program "crashes" your computer, you are talking about total and complete failure - the inability to use it for anything at all - the only way to recover is turn it off, wait, and turn in on. That is a crash.

If you give it bad input and it tells you whats wrong and where, that's not crashing - that is civilized behavior. I do not work for Microsoft :biggrin:

bagginsbill. i really mean crahs. not problems with teh matmatic himself. but if this can hurt windows?.

but it looks like it can not.

so basicly this matmatic was made from you to us so that it would make everything easier.

i read somewhere that the rander and everything is faster?

No, it can't hurt your windows program.

Matmatic has nothing to do with rendering.

It's a program that reads scripts that people have made for shaders (Material room materials). The program comes with the scripts.

Just install the program to your Poser runtime folder and follow the instructions as I posted above:

http://www.renderosity.com/mod/forumpro/showthread.php?thread_id=2635126&page=3#message_2999079

If you don't add anymore scripts that people have created, all you have to do is run the program one time. It will read the scripts and generate materials that you access through the material room and can apply to your items like floors and walls and all kinds of things.

I had the same problem :( . You can find a fix for that in that thread at RDNA.

Also, you should take the time to read though the original Matmatic Beta Thread at RDNA which has lots of helpful questions and answers including the one for the error we both got.

Also, can you maybe create another thread for your questions? That way this thread can just stay for links and people don't have to scroll through pages of help posts looking for the link updates?

Acadia, you certainly are a gem ;)

Acadia,

The pws.prserv.net (ATTGlobal) link was mine and I just closed that account a couple of days ago. They nuked my Web space pretty quickly. I'll have to find new Web space somewhere as the only space I've available to me now is at Geocities and the page would have ads. I wouldn't mind paying a bit for Web hosting, just haven't looked into it yet. Sorry to loose the 10 MB at ATTGlobal. Nice to be able to post stuff for friends and family.

Best Wishes and thanks again for the links.
