Subject: How Did My Prop Geometry Become Absorbed Into Cr2 File?

I made a small dual spherical transparent prop that barely "covers" each eyeball to give the whites some glass like qualities. Now I've noticed that the props geometry has been stored in the cr2 file sort of like deltas for a morph, and I don't even need the prop object file anymore! Also this happened to the "base object" from "Nene 411SE" (by Kozaburo and Yamato). I am sure this happened after saving the figure to the library, then using then using that saved cr2 file from the library. Can anyone tell me how or why this has happened? I would like to have some control over this! Anyone?

You probably saved the prop with the cr2. Delete the prop and save the figure to the library again.

Ok, thanks Jeff. I see that this can happen to "props" but does not happen to objects defined as seperate "figures", (like the conform curls or Bushi,s RealEyes object, which are actually figures). I think I was confused because it happen to one but not the other.

heya; its supposed to do that. like if you put a prop hat on somebody and saved them, they keep their hat. and earrings and belts and swords and whatnots. the patch 117+ lets you save more than one figure into the library (like conforming figures), you might try that (if you don't have beta-patch-a-phobia. :) )

The latest patch (118) also lets you save more than one figure to a library slot, giving you the option of saving the whole group (i.e all the figures) or just the selected figure. I just wish I could figure out why the OBJ exporter dialogue box will not allow me to change any settings Paul
