after the patch it no longer gives error messages if it couldn't find the obj file, it lets me browse for it, like textures. for someone who moves stuff around while developing bits and pieces, this is great! yay!! :)

AprilYSH and pokeydots; are you talking P4 or P5? Did I miss a new P4 patch? (don't see anything at CuriousLab) Been rebuilding my system since Saturday's catastrophy....

Poser 5 pre-patch asked to locate the OBJ files as well. For me anyway. -JH.

Oh, P5...darn, I was hoping that feature would end up in P4.

No such luck. Those of us still using P4 rank somewhere below roadkill on the social scale around here any more. Of course, CL now considers P4 to be 'dead' and there won't be anything more of any kind for those who still want to use it. It's only natural from their point of view.

Poser 5 is the new toy in town, but, if I am reading the forums right, a lot of people are staying with Poser 4 or returning to it if they have experienced too many problems with Poser 5 (and, let's face it, not everyone can afford Poser 5 and the potential of having problems). I'm not taking Poser 4 off my machine because I don't trust Poser 5 and I haven't explored it enough to feel confident that more problems won't reveal themselves. I have accepted I will never be able to do a Firefly Render in a reasonable length of time with my current computer, so I am still doing Poser 4 renders within Poser 5. I hope there is room for people with various versions of Poser because I don't think Poser 5 is a product that can be used universally. So, if there is a pecking order around here based on software possession, I'm hiding down here at the bottom of the social ladder.

There's a lot of us down here. This bottom rung is getting crowded, 'ain't it? ;o)

heyas; i have both running, here. i'll tell you, i want to slap a texture on a figure, i do it in p4! posing and setting up; i can do in either one. there are some good new poses in p5. i haven't been using the p5 split screen much, though. seems to take twice as long to set them all up, and then those annoying cameras are always appearing in the view. rendering.... depends on how cranky p5 is about it. i got more memory, so it should be happier now. meanwhile; i'm still rendering in vue, or p4. of course, with ray tracing, you have to expect long render times. you can't tell me bryce doesn't commonly take 5 hours or more to render a scene. ;)

I kept Poser 3 on my machine for a year after P4 came out and now I keep P4 PP for the same reasons. Checking problems back and forth is easier that way :-) Poser 4 users on the botton rung? Hardly. It's just there's this big P5 learning curve going on right now. -Jeff

Personally I only haven't gone to P5 ONLY because other issues have rendered me Flat Broke for a while. But as soon as I can I'll be upgrading. Sure there will be issue and a new learning curve, but look how every one has, rather Had, blasted every previous new product but then it became the main-stay (P4, Vicky/Mike, and everything else before). It's all part of evolution and learning to handle something new and the problems/marvels that something new brings with it. That's what makes life in itself an adventure.....
