Hi everyone - not sure what would cause this, but I have a prop of a jet pack that I parented to M4's body. Then I saved it to my library as a smart prop - it even asks if I want to save it as a smart prop and of course I answer "yes". Then I apply a flying pose to M4 and the jet pack stays put, while M4 assumes his place up in the air. Why is this? I've saved and re-saved the prop a few times making sure to follow all the steps I've taken a dozen times before on other projects, with no issue. I use Poser 11, and the prop is a morphing prop (the jet pack has wings that pop out via an ERC dial). Any ideas or thoughts are appreciated

Not sure, but did you parent it to the body or to a bodypart, like the chest? That might make a difference ...

I'm with Kerya on that same thought. Try parenting to a body part as opposed to just the body. Sometimes smart-parenting refuses to cooperate if you are not specific enough.

Ok. I parented it to M4's body. I'll try parenting to the chest and see what happens....
