Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Oct 09 4:36 am)
Sounds like you have the "search preferences" set too strict.
Go to Preferences (main menu Edit : General Preferences) ... find the Library tab,
and click the dot for "Deep". This will tell Poser to look through all
available Runtimes for textures and geometries.

Have you updated your video drivers recently? Odds are poser needs the latest drivers to run properly.
Also, did you install poser 7 into it's own fresh folder, or did you install it over the top of poser 6? You do not want to every over write older programs with newer versions. Always start with a clean install... also you can have both poser 6 and poser 7 installed in separate locations without any issues at all.
Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
Goodluck. I have had serious problems lately with P7. It was working fine up until 2 months ago. Now it crashes constantly. Most likely it is a software incompatability issue with an XP update and Smith doesn't know how to fix it.
And I have done clean installs, driver updates and so on. It freezes everytime I go to conform.
What's a space navigtor driver? is that for hardware or software? If I could get my poser 7 working again, i'd be so happy.

I use Poser 13 and win 10
I've been having the same problem reloading pz3 files as ImRassilon. When I try to load a previous project I get "texture coud not be loaded...image map could not be found, or there is not enough memory to load" error.
Win XP, 2 gigs ram, 1.8 ghz AMD Sempron. My Poser 7 was a new install with all 3 sr's applied, not an upgrade from Poser 6. Most of my runtimes are on an external drive. The odd thing is, after I get the messages, the file loads, the textures are all listed for each material, but none of them are loaded. I can load them all manually and they render fine. I can save the file under a new name, quit Poser, restart Poser, reload the newly saved file and get the same error.
I haven't tried reinstalling yet, but that may be the only choice at this point.
It's all fun and games...

I have uninstalled and reinstalled P7. no change. I have erased thre pref files no help. I have run windows in diagnostic mode[no virus software or other background programs running.] No Change. Is it possible that having the extrernal runtimes is causing the issues? I can't see it causing the program to stop responding, but it would maybe explain the inablity to find or load materials. I am hoping someone out there has had this problem and found a suitable solution.
I await your agravation ending answers
TIA

Well heres a ray of hope. I may have solved the program freeze issue by following the info on the Smith-Micro knowledge base. I erased all the temp files and ran windows disk fix. I'm crossing my fingers but no crashes so far. I also installed a few new items in the Poser root folder. and the created an image with only those items found in the poser folder[no external runtimes]. I rendered with the image, saved the image, restarted poser and Voila' no errors in loading. Maybe poser 7 and Vista don't see eye to eye on who gets accesss to what. Still looking for any and all input.
TIA

ImRassilon, are you by chance getting the loading errors on a file using V4.2? I'm loading a scene with her and the "texture coud not be loaded...image map could not be found, or there is not enough memory to load" errors are on all the V4.2 textures. I can reload the textures manually and the file will render. All the textures are on the same external drive, but the only one's that wouldn't load were the V4.2 textures.
The file is composed of V4.2, 2 conforming clothing items, the DAZ multiplan cyclorama, 2 swords, a bloodstain, and several other props. Everything loads except for the V4.2 textures.
Here's something I tried that seems to have worked. In Poser, I browsed my library pallette to the runtime containing the V4.2 textures that I used in the file and loaded the file. I got the "not enough memory error one time, then the file loaded with all the V4.2 textures loaded. All the other textures loaded too, except for the bloodstain this time.
I have no clue why that made a difference and don't have an answer as to why the problem happens in the first place.
It's all fun and games...

I recently upgraded from a very stable Poser 6 to an agravatingly unstable Poser 7.04.220. I get one of 2 problems every time i run the new program. It either locks up on startup or when I try to load a previous project I get the following message over and over again. Texture coud not be loaded. Image map could not be found, or there is not enough memory to load. I am running Windows Vista-32 with 3 Gb of memory and a dualcore AMD Atholon 2.8 Ghz chip. I use external runtimes but have the V4 character installed in the main poser 7 folder
Any help with this really agravating problem would be really appreciated.
