heyas; i sent a p4 file (obj, cr2 and rsr-library file, not the obj rsr) to somebody with p3 to test, you know, make sure it would open okay in a previous version. well, the file started to open, said new version, blah blah, tried to open anyway, and then had an invalid page fault. it did that twice, and after the second time, poser 3 would NOT run. my guess is, the poser.rsr or even the exe got screwt. they tried copying those two files from the cd, but that didn't work. a full re-install is next. can a poser figure do that? i mean... does anybody know WHAT corrupts the poser.rsr; can it be files like this? also, somebody said you can write protect the poser.rsr file, right? instead of restoring it from backup all the time. i'll have to go through the cr2.... i didnt do anything fancy with the files, no transparencies or reflections. i did create ik chains with the heirarchy editor instead of in phi-build, though.... hmmm... any thoughts?
