Im going wacky trying to find items I've downloaded. When I do find them they are either .obj, .mt5, .tmp, .xpi files - then when trying to open the file. I get the 'select which program to open with', poser 5 isn't in the list. I have tried openning them and sending to poser - nada.
I need some simplicity here - for I figure when I can get collisions for clothing down I maybe on my way to doing something.
One more question am I to create the whole scene in poser or go thru the process of creating hair, clothing, positioning and then export it as a .obj file to vue, or bryce or photoshop and finish up there.
Help me obi-wan your my only hope !

a pz3 file is probably the only type that will open with poser. one hasta create an entire scene in poser as you describe, unless one only wants to export a single obj file for use in another app.

You can buy clothing or get it for free, the poser freestuff at this site has loads of free clothing items that you can download, you don`t have to make them yourself.
There are quite a few free hair and shoe items as well.

Unless it's a zip file, you'd load it into the appropriate folder, then "get" it from within Poser. for example, an obj file is a 3D "object"..... usually, if you want to look at it, you'd open it in, say, Wings 3D. Poser will let you look at it if you import..... things like mat files are just what they sound like...Materials. Lou.
"..... and that was when things got interestiing."

you need the "Guide to Poser file placement " which will tell you where the poser stuff should go.
letse if I can find it in the tuts here :-..... http://www.renderosity.com/mod/tutorial/index.php?tutorial_id=1275
try that for a start.
obj, 3ds that are not part of a poser item can go anywhere because you will import them and then save within poser as a prop.

I would save the page to your harddisk, so you have a more permanent copy.
