Thanks Ch0pper but i am not, I browse to my PP2012 folder (64bit) click ok and then the installer adds \Poser pro 2014 AFTER!

I am sure I am pointing the installer to the right location :)

If you look at one of my images it says: C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012\Poser Pro 2014

V-odd!

Thanks for your reply tho ;)

The installer adds the \Poser Pro 2014 string automatically. Delete this from your path and you should be fine:
C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012

and not:
C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012\Poser Pro 2014

Thanks Miru ;)

Your right, I needed to delete the `extra` additions put there by the installer!
The installer was adding it automatically (as I said above)..that's real annoying!
Browsing the correct folder and clicking OK/next should be enough! I should not have to browse the correct folder THEN have the installer incorrectly correct me only to have to correct the installer AGAIN! :lol: :lol: :lol: :roll:

Deleting the extra info added by the installer did indeed work, Thank you :D

1. the material order e.g. in a V4 is all messed up and
2. "Replace all skin materials of this figure" replaces the textures, too, which is not so good when having different textures (head, torso, limbs) ;)
And 2 more:
All objects include now the "Preview" material which is pretty useless when other materials are present and
On changing a texture image with "Select from the file system" the preset directory to choose from was the origin directory of the actual image, which was a surprisingly useful feature. Now it's somehow the last used directory - not very fitting in the most cases.

GLOSSY_INDEX = 0.0 is not working.

EDIT: Paul, have you disabled the OctaneDefaults.py totally? If yes, why?

I had an item for thought. :D A render Queue would be nice, so I don't have to open each poser scene manually. Also, when the render starts, it's really grainy until about 200 -300 samples. Just wondering if this is normal. Thanks.
