Using P5 and have Undine lite loaded, posed, etc. When I load a second Undine lite, I get the image above. I can open a new document and she loads fine. I've tried shutting down too and just can't figure out why this is happening. Anyone have an idea?

Stop it! That's too scary.

"I Only Have Eyes For You!" ;=] (sorry, couldn't resist) ;=]

That's a great picture. No I mean it.. You should do a large version and put it in the gallery :) In answer to your question, unfortunately, I've never had anything that interesting happen to me in Poser so I have no idea.

Kind of reminds me of those egg people in the Jimmy Neutron cartoon my kids like so much. :) Still don't know but I'm using the Daz mermaid instead till I figure it out.

I had this happen to me once in P4, the problem in my case was that one of the figures (the first one loaded, if I remember right) had the head as internal geometry. Why internal geometry in one figures head should cause the second figure to loose its head is beyond me. Perhaps it's a crosstalk thing, where the second figure looks for its geometry reference in the first figures head?

Open up the cr2 in a text editor and check for internal geometry in the head. Also check that both object references are there. A corrupt rsr might also cause this. The above are tips I got from Bloodsong. Check my original post, linked above.

X-files again? I thought they were supposed to fix that.

Save the affected Poser run as a .pz3 file. Using a text editor look in the characters' initial "short actors", e.g. as follows. The missing head's short actor's insides may be missing. Copy it back in from a nearby "short actor", and change the end argument of the geomHandlerGeom line to match. Then save the result as ASCII TEXT, preferably under another file name in the same folder.

<b>actor hip:3
        {
        storageOffset 0 0 0
        geomHandlerGeom 13 hip  
        }
actor abdomen:3
        {
        storageOffset 0 0 0
        geomHandlerGeom 13 abdomen  
        }
actor chest:3
        {
        storageOffset 0 0 0
        geomHandlerGeom 13 chest  
        }</b>

And once I accidentally created an unpleasant "severed hand and fingers" mutilation effect because a hand's short actor's insides went missing because of this bug, combined with the all-too-familiar IK misbehavior, as the hand's arm was IK-on and the hand was IK-parented to something.
