I'll kick off with my latest Dumbest moment.
I got the clothes converter thingy, and I wanted to get something nice for Ahjah's Anime girl. So of course I need an OBJ, for
Posette, as part of the conversion process.
I open up my
Poser 6, and get that little python window open for the script to do the conversion. It asks me some prompts that I am not really paying attention to, and well it goes about it's business converting. I start reading the scrolling activity log, and I see it is converting all the OBZ's, in the Runtime, because I misread the prompt for destination location (which was also the original location of the OBZ). I have OBJ's for everything now!
Oh, and to add further insult when I finished the conversion process for the garment for Anime girl, I load the item, and my
Poser 6 froze on me (now that has not happened before... uh, yes it has), I shall go back and try again, but read the instructions next time.
Oh I just remembered an earlier one...
I finished installing my
Poser 6, and installed my content (enough of it to play around with). I then had a really smart thought, could I give it some
Poser 7 functionality?. Like what I wonder. Well I go about examining a
Poser 7 runtime, and see differences, in the walk designer, and a few other things, so I think I'll have some of that. In the end I borked my
Poser 6, it would not start up (time for another re install).
I am pretty good at re installing
Poser 6 now. I have some archived files of a basic install (with the SR4, and CU), with organised content, and am ready for my next re install.
There are others but this is enough for now.
That's What you learn of, by try and error. Way back on Poser3 when I had to edit about every file to get it loaded (P4 was standard, P5 was just released that time) , a lot of really strange things happened to me. I had to remap lot's of OBJ, and hack lot's of cr2 manually. I actually cannot recall anything specific right now, but a lot went wrong, of course. They weren't any howtos for stuff like that. I was unexperienced and had to figure it out all on my own. I learned incredibly much by that, about Poser logics (?) and stuff...
