Installation instructions:
This product is P6 ready & P5 compatible & p4 should-work-but-not-guaranteed :)


For Poser6 user:

Extract the zip file to your Poser folder (example. c:\program files\Curious  
Labs\Poser6\ ).



For Poser5 user:

1:
Extract the zip file to your Poser folder (example. c:\program files\Curious  
Labs\Poser5\ )
2:
Go to \ACE_POLY_Subway\ACE_POLY OTHER\Subway\Poser5 Replace\ in your Poser5 folder and  
extract the "Poser5 light&cam.zip" to your Poser 5 folder(example. c:\program  
files\Curious Labs\Poser5\ )
3: once you open the pz3 file in Poser, use the "basic" light preset to replace the  
one that comes with the pz3 file. the default light took advantage of P6 ambient  
occlusion feature which P5 does not support. delete other light preset other than  
"basic".

the purpose of the second extraction is to replace the light and camera preset with  
the one made specifically for Poser 5.After this process, when you open the pz3  
file, you will only get a prompt saying the file has a newer version number. Just  
ignore it(you can resave the pz3 so next time it won't ask you again)

By organize the product this way, I don't have to stuff another pz3 file into the  
final package, (upload time, download time and Rcity storage are all saved.)



For P4 users:

All the object have their polygon broken at the right angle. so if the Pz3 file does not work well,
You can always import those obj from the obj folder and reconstitute your scene in a couple of minutes.
 For sure there won't be any over-smoothing ballooning effect.

Usage Tips/Limitations

Lighting:
Lighting in P6 used ambient occlusion. It is just to show you what the scene look  like. light 1 is ok for scene outside of the train while Light 2 is ok for scene  within the train. For poser 5 users there is only one light preset called "basic"  provided. to better light it up, you need to tweak the lighting to your liking by  yourself. 

Door:
the left door and right door are separate obj in the Pz3 file. you can open it or  close it by changing the dial parameter.

Train head / train p1 / train p2:
they are separate object. train head and train p1 comes with the pz3 file. train p2 (the end part of a train) is provided as a obj file in the obj folder. Train p1 is the  standard train compartment. it depends on how many compartments you scene needs, you  can duplicate the "train p1" for that requirement.

3ds format can be provided upon request

The subway is already scaled appropriately for poser (prop/person proportion)

Usage of Service code:

The service code is actually the password to uncompress the updated version of the  product -compressed and password protected - that is hosted at my own site -- The idea  is like this, anyone who found a problem--mostly minor if any, otherwise the product  would not have been released:)-- might come to me for support. I will correct the problem 
and update the rar file at my site. I will direct anyone else who has the same problem 
to this updated version of the product. This will minimize the hassle of updating 
product from various broker's site and all the customers can have the latest  version of the product easily.
