I was doing a torture-test last night, trying to see how much I could cram into a fantasy scene. I put off inserting the human figures til last, knowing they would slow down loading of everything after, and I was couldn't help noticing how llllooooonnnnnggggg it took for each successive figure to load. the last one before I had to shut it down took 8 minutes just to load into the scene, and I really wanted another 8-12 figures at least! I use the Poser 4 Lo-Rees figures a lot for setup, testing, etc. It's a lot faster and easier on resources to pre-set the characters in a scene using the Lo-Res Figs in rough poses, then "swap" them out for the needed characters for fine-tuning & the final setup prior to render. Does anyone know if there are texture-templates for these figures? I couldn't find any on the Poser Disks. A few basic textures with uniforms, armors, street clothes, etc. for these would make crowd scenes & battle scenes much faster, and make good background figures. I suppose I could make templates from UVMapperPro, but that'd have to wait until I can buy it. Any help appreciated :-)
