Hi everybody...I have a small problem with Poser I keep getting a message saying that Poser cannot open a file because it has no memory left, then it shuts down .what can I do?? Please help me ! thanks in advance !! Poppy

Welcome to the wonderful generic "I'm Confused" by poser 8 ) let's see.... if the .rsr for a goemetry's corrupt, the obj file is corrupt, a texture is corrupt, or.. basically anything ahppens that Poser can't handle.. it'll give you a memory error..I'd be willing to think that you recieved it shourtly after trying to load a figure/prop and was told that the obj couldn't be found? little tips: spelling counts, a mispelling will cause a problem as will capitalization. location: the obj for a figure must be in teh loacation that the cr2 calls for... Geometry:WierdStuff:this_item_here.obj is not the same as GeometryWierdstuffThis_item_here.obj [note the capitals please..] another thing that causes this is a corrupt rsr for the geometry file.. in which case teh solution is to delete teh rsr.. this_item_here.obj this_item_here.rsr <~~ delete this one.. I hope this dinnae confuse too much 8 ) Cheers

You make me laugh wizzard.....of course it confused me!!! Its so early in the morning , I'll have my coffee first, maybe my brain will work better with some caffeine :) thanks Poppy

Sure thing... I'll wait till you've had your coffee 8 ) Cheers

OK , I think I've got it now...in not so many words I have to check my spelling and where I put my files .. ?? thanks wizz Poppy:)

In a nutshell.. right Poppy 8 ) as Poser is quite case sensative... the other bit.. presuming everything else is fine and dandy... sometimes during a crash.. the .rsr for the obj file in goemetrys get's corrupted... in which case you delete teh rsr.. then reload teh figure.. teh firswt time will take a while as it rebuilds teh rsr 8 )

This out of memory message is often caused by Poser not finding a texture file where it expected to or finding a jpg instead of a bmp or bum. The answer to this is to put them in the right place or convert them to the correct file type then try reloading the character. Sometimes (I have found this with pz3 files) they work fine the first time you load them up but when you go back and try to open them again they give the out of memory message. In this instance go into the geometries folder and delete the rsr and let Poser build another one. Hope this is of some help.

thanks for taking the time time , and answering my problem I think I've got it now...:))) next time it happens I'll know what to do !!:) Poppy
