but darnit if the strangest things don't happen in P5. I just spent an hour or so fooling around in the materials room setting up a scene. Finally got the scene looking just right, even the reflection in the water looked good. So I go to render again - just like I had done a dozen times before. The scene renders. Wow! Hey, I think to myself, the firefly render in P5 is pretty neat. The render is done and I am looking at my masterpiece thinking, this one I'll save it actually looks great. Then suddenly an error message pops up, can not find texture so and so. Then another, and another, and another. This continues on a run away course right up until Poser 5 suddenly closes. Of course I loose the render, but what gets me is my hard drive is still ticking away generating these silly can not be found errors. So, I have to reboot. No, its not a virus. This computer never goes on-line and I always scan for virsus before I load any files onto it. So I figure it has got to be a bug. In fact, I have gotten the can not find texture error message before, and normally all I have to do is repoint P5 to my texture libary. What got me is it had no prob finding the textures all those renders before, and then it went crazy and I guess tried to make up for it by pulling a runaway. So I am laughing, smiling, and being optimistic. Afterall, no point crying over spilt milk and all that... So, anyone else have a similar great happy moment? Or am I just lucky. :O)
