I just installed Poser 7. But 3 seconds after executing the .exe, it crashed to the desktop! :stomp:
Am I forgetting a patch, or an update?
my specs:
512MB Video Card
3 GHz Processor
2GB Ram
Hmmmm......with the specs above I think it would be unthinkable for Poser to crash! I mean, I ran a game with pixel shader 2.0 at full resolution without a hitch (Red Alert 3)
Any suggestions? I want to try the 'brush' morphing tool badly.

POSER 7 Crash! |

What OS? Windows XP SP2 or 3? Or maybe Vista. If it is Vista then their are issues with it.
If you are using a heavy applications then you have to change the bucket size. This will slow the P7 software to slow down on render ,but will give you a render without crashing. I have seen this happen to many times. Also the render size will shut it down as well depending on the bulk of the image you are wanting to create. I hope this helps because I need a bit more information on just what you are rendering and how it is rendered. |

Nope. Not vista. XP SP2. And I didn't even get to render it. 3 seconds after clicking it to start the program, it crashes to the desktop. Just the initial Poser 7 logo and BAM! Desktop. |

Hi hanzonushinrei :hi:
Was it the first time ever you launched the program ? Or you modified something and now it chrashes ? In any case, I read on e-frontier forum of some settings to try to modify manually with an editor :mmmh: ... I'll take a look after work ... |

I found this:
http://www.contentparadise.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10276 It looks like an OpenGl problem (maybe), if you have an Nvidia try to change the settings like it's said in that thread. You can even contact their online support and upgrade it to SR 3. Let us know |

Yep, first time I ran it. FYI, my card is NVIDIA 7800 GS. |

Settings changed, still no change. And, I seem to have mistaken......it is not actually Poser 7, but Poser Pro 7. Is it different? |

Not the e frontier's Poser 7, but Smith Micro's Poser Pro 7.

Found this
http://www.contentparadise.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2745 and this http://www.contentparadise.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9758 and read this http://www.contentparadise.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8300 for Poser.ini editing and look at this, maybe it's your problem: http://www.contentparadise.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9555 One unexpected thing about P7 seems to cause a lot of similar problems: it stores part of its preference files under Documents and Settings and part in the Poser directory. The installer doesn't change the files in Documents and Settings, so if one of those files is causing the problem, reinstalling won't touch it. You have to get in there and delete it. Look under c:Documents and SEttings (your name)Application DataPoser 7 and try deleting Poser.ini and preferredState.pz3 in that folder. Poser will then generate fresh preference files the next time you start it. (Or better, move those files elsewhere so you can move them back if they're not the problem.) |

Did you try changing your preview to SReed and not OpenGL?

it looks like he can't open it at all, he should do it directly in the setting file (Poser.ini)

Solved! I uninstalled this Smith Micro Poser Pro 7. And I bought e frontier's Poser 7 instead! Runs like clockwork....
Thanks guys for your kind help! |

If it is any consolation, your hassles have helped me with my Poser 7 install - I had some of the problems here, and was cursing my new PC... should have realised it was a OPenGL problem in the first place. Now all seems to be functioning...
...just waiting for my new render beastie to arrive so I can really push Poser 7 hard. |
