I am having a strange issue when I save a material in poser. I open a texture for the characters eye, and save it as a material. Then when I click to load the material next time I open Poser, I get an error that says that the file is not a valid poser file. Has anyone else had this problem? What am I doing wrong? Is there a solution? It's incredibly frustrating because it happens on some materials and not others. Any suggestions?

Which version of Poser, hun? Often improper saving of files can be due to OS issues: too many rubbish files (like .tmp), fragmentation, or it could be a Poser issue, depending on the version, I guess.

Running Poser 7 on a mac if that makes a difference I don't really know. It only started doing this in the last hour or so, it was working fine earlier. Should I search for and delete all .tmp files? 

Oh, a MAC! :blushing: No clue what might be doing it then. I assumed a PC - silly me - because I sometimes get issues like that and a good defrag and registry cleanup and temp file clean-up usually fixes it.

But a Mac? No idea. Sorry, GreenEyedGirl.

BTW, which Service Release for Poser 7?

Also having this issue with renders, white lines appearing and renders going wrong, also eyes suddenly see through or darker... wtf??? 

have repaired permissions and cleaned up comp, maybe need to update or reinstall poser???
