I looked at that link, and studied the tutorial (which enlightened me a lot, thanks), and am still befuddled. Is the trick that I don't have UV pro? I made a test .obj of a box and a ball side by side. If I just import it into poser, the box is soft. If I run it through uv mapper, the ball comes out hard. I can't make them come out "just right" Obviously, I could perform the grouping procedure you mentioned in the tutorial, but that wouldn't work very well on your Dalek in your example. Curiously, I got it to do what I wanted by loading the model into "Simply 3d" and then saving it.
