I only just recently got PP2014 and after doing a couple of searches I didn't see this mentioned but if it is a known issue sorry for bringing it up again. I was trying to group and assign materials to Roxie's legs so as to be able to change the shader into a stockings one when I noticed that the new material was not showing up.
During the cloth simulation (where I changed to Traditional skinning to do it quicker) I saw the material and that's when I realized it would not show up when subdivided with the Unimesh skinning method. Same thing happened with Rex. I was beginning to think it was Poser so I tried other figures. It worked fine in both skinning methods.
Then I figured it was something about the PP2014 figures and sure enough when I tried it with the cartoons the old Ginger worked great but Ginger 2 had the same problem of disappearing materials in Unimesh skinning.
Can someone reproduce this so I can submit it in the hopes that the new PP2016 figures don't suffer the same fate? Oh and yes, I did render just in case it was just a preview thing. Same results.
