Does anyone know if there is a newer version that works for p6? i can get the P5 one to work most of the time i was just curious to know if there had been any updates on it. i've been out of the loop for a lil while now and need to get back into the groove of things. thanks

Poser 6 makes its own material files in the material room.

As far as I know MPE hasn't been upgraded to P6 compatibility, of course P6 understands previous version's MAT files so that isn't a problem and I haven't had any problems using MPE to make the MATs and then using them in P6.

MPE supports P5 so you can use it for mat files for both textures and materials.  You just have to be certain you have the Poser 5 option checked.

Yes indeed.  Unless someone is trying to make files that are backwards compatable
with P4 to sell commercially there is no reason to continue using the old hack of
mat pose files.  They are obsolete as of Poser 5 and way too much time and trouble
as compared to just making up a material collection in the material room.
Plus a simple material file can be put on anything, clothes, props, background,
characters, one file for all. And if you use procedurals you don't fill up your hard drive
with a bunch of jpeg texture files.

i figuared this out; it was one file and one file alone that was giving me problems, I'd go to load it and it would give me an "Error" message... the funny thing is that was the only one who was giving me issues.
