Max, Lightwave and almost any other program is better for rendering simply because of the fact that the other programs have better rendering engines written into the software than does Poser. There are some programs which will allow you to bring a Poser scene into Max, Lightwave, Bryce, and Vue but for the most part you will need the ProPack which has the importers for Max and Lightwave shipped with the program. To take the bones into Max????? It may happen but I don't know about that.
