Ok, ive asked this before but noone seams to be able to tell me how to do it, people say its possible but thats all ive got so far. Ok, im fairly new to poser so bare with me on this yeh! Im playing around with "posette" and have got hold of a ne texture for the skin and have taken it into Photoshop and changed the eys colour etc and placed a tatoo on her stomach yeh! I am using poser to create animatios rather than still renders or pictures. When my scene consists of only 1 frame and ive gone into materials and selected the texure map for the body i then go into Render>render and it places the texture, including the tatoo onto the body and everything is cool..........until i change the pose or try to move anything, once ive moved it i have to click on render again to place the textur onto the body and again everything is ok. Sionce im using this for animation,how do i get the texture to stay on the body when i create a series of frames. in ther words if i create a head and then use mimic to create an talking AVI file, how do i make sure that that texture is mapped onto every single frame of my 8 seconds animation? Sorry to rabble on but i was just trying to give you as much info so that someone may be able to do the same and tell me how its done. Hope someone can help e, think im about to go nuts here :( Thanks people daz
