Subject: MAT files on P4 (no pro pack)

Hi, I've created a set of MAT files to apply textures to a model. They work fine under P4 with the Pro pack, but the version without the Pro pack installed doesn't seem to support .png image thumbnails. Any idea how I generate previews so that I can package thumbnails with my MATs?

You've split some of your questions into at least two different messages. I answered your other question in that thread. *** Here's my easy way: (Be sure to setup so you always have a backup of everything. I'll assume your figure is already added to your Character Library.) 1.) Get your figure posed the way you want it to appear in your "thumbnail." 2.) Render the image 3.) Save as png 4.) Load in a graphics editor program (PhotoShop, etc.) 5.) Reduce the image size to 91x91 pixels 6.) Save the file (use the same name as the file you want to share.) 5.) Use P3DO Explorer to make an rsr from the png I setup two folders: 1.) My PNG's 2.) Use me (the useme file contains the smaller versions of the png files)

Ron, as it appears that many PPP .PNG files have more than 91x91 dimensions I'll soon update Rsr2Png with a croper - not a shrinker - that will crop any .PNG to the appropriate 91x91 suitable for converting from PPP to P4. Yarp

Yarp, you continue to impress me!

I just tought it could be interested that you knew this as your one of the guys who promote Rsr2Png the more ;)) ...and it will avoid a basic error that is far from being obvious for beginners.
