>From the release notes:
* Implemented Part I of Gremlin Hordes: You can now periodically have
the complete emulator state saved while a Gremlin is running. This
state can be reloaded, and the Gremlin restarted.
This feature is controlled via a new setting in the New Gremlin
dialog. There is now an editable item called Snapshot Frequency.
The number entered here is the number of events that should occur
between the time snapshots are taken. The default value is 10,000
events. By setting this value to zero, you turn off the snapshot
feature.
Snapshots are saved in a single directory in the Poser directory.
The name of the directory is "GremlinStates_####", where #### is a
value ensuring the directory name's uniqueness.
Snapshots are saved in this directory with the name Event##########,
where ########## is the event number at which the snapshot was
taken. Snapshots are merely session files, so they can be reloaded
at any time, just like regular session files.
Since snapshots are taken while a Gremlin is running, the Gremlin is
automatically turned off when the snapshot is reloaded. However,
Poser displays the Gremlin Control window when the snapshot is
loaded, allowing you to resume the Gremlin if you want. [Roger

Subject: POSE Operation
I am still trying to debug a problem and POSE is taking forever. I
get errors at step over 400,000. On my PC it takes hours to get
there. Make a change; wait hours to test. Very tedious.
I suspect that the error does not depend on everyone of the steps to
get executed in that 400,000 step order. Is there anyway to start
POSE so that it uses the same sequence only startes later further
down the stream.
If not, and I suspect that is the case: I have a suggestion for
POSE. Since, the tests are just as valid for a pseudo-random list of
actions as it is for a random set of actions. Why not just use a
stream of actions that can be started anywhere in the stream?
