I am a new Poser 7 (pc) user, and have a problem that is completely perplexing me.
I am working with Victoria 4.2 (free base version), the Girl Next Door 4.0 model, High heels 3.0, and the V4 Hair set (all purchased on this website). I load up Victoria, then inject the GND files. However when I go to load a hair set from the poses folder (as instructed), it doesn't show up at all. In fact Victoria model just flashes for a millisecond, but that is all. I had no problems adding the shoes.
I decided that maybe the GND model had something to do with it, but I still can't load hair for the base Victoria either. Any suggestions would be super helpful!!!
Thanks!

The problem would be trying to add hair from the poses folder - depending on the hair, try either the hair or character folder. Pose folders are generally reserved for changing hair colours.

Most hair is found in the Hair Library or Figures. Clicking the double check mark will load all parts of the model and it's texture. You will find fittings (if any) and mats in a corresponding folder in the Pose Library. However, if you have the Document Settings on, say, wireframe, the transmaps needed for the hair will cause it to come in almost transparent. Change this to texture shaded and you will be able to see the hair then.

You load different hair colours from the pose folder, the readme maybe didn`t make that clear enough.
