Les, I have played around with it too. But not really made much headway in understanding all the whys and wherefores. As you noted some things seem to need the conforming line in the cr2 and other do not. I thought if maybe I understood better how Poser handles this internally that I could make more sense of it all. The conforming line does not really seem to matter. I can load two V2 figures into a scene and conform one to the other. In fact, I have tried some rather strange series of conforming figures ontop of clothes ontop of figures, etc. Just to see what happens. Maybe someone can clue us in as to how Poser works conforming.
