I am getting some weird problems in texture shaded mode since installing the new service release pack.

1. Everything is sluggish, like I have no memory - ok I don't have a lot, only 512, but before I could spin a dial without the damn programme locking up.

2. Weird issues when I add character textures, like the one above - her forehead disappears. It happens with all MAT sets now for this character - no problems before.

Geeze I hate P6, but I cannot use Trekies morphs in P5, so these new issues are making a thoroughly irritating programme, more irritating.

Any help would be appreciated.

Alternatively, why would morphs only be P6 compatible, is there anyway to make them P5 compatible? Then I could go back to using my nice stable, never had a problem P5, instead of this buggy irritating P6.

Thanks

You might need to uninstall Poser 6 and then reinstall it before applying SR3.
I was having several problems after applying SR3 and this is what I had to
do.  Now Poser 6 works perfectly, no bugs at all.
If you do reinstall, make sure you apply the SR3 right after that,
don't open Poser first.

To make morphs P5 compatible, Annie, just open the .pz2 file and change the version to 5 instead of 6.  If you need to use shaders, make sure the extension is .mt5 and not .mc6 or .mt6.

Remember, sometimes the dragon wins. Correction: MOST times.

The morphs may be in pmd format, which is Poser 6 only. To make them Poser 5 compatable, turn off external morphs in Poser 6's general preferences and then resave your characters with the morphs in them. This should get the morphs in the character .cr2 file, which you would then be able to use in Poser 5.

If you haven't already,...maybe check to see if you have the latest drivers for your graphics card also.

Won't work if the morphs are in PMD files.
If this is the case you need MorphExchange from kuroyume0161's FreeStuff -> http://camelot.renderosity.com/freestuff.ez?Form.Contrib=kuroyume0161&Topsectionid=0

Or just resave with the pmd option unchecked in General Preferences.

Thanks I will look into these options

Thanks Fazzel, but I tried this, but didn't work for me - problem still existed after.

Thanks Tom, no luck with this either.

Ended up uninstalling Poser again, & reinstalling sr2, then issue fixed - I will just forgo the upgrade.

Thanks, rather than editing the file versions, I tried this first & saved a morphed version in P6, than opened in P6 - works fine.

Thanks for all the suggestions & help.
