Nobody answered. Ts ts. But it is indeed a little long ago that this issue was under discussion. I simply did one thing. Thought about who could know something like that and then asked her - Guitta. She says a warm hello to all and that she is missing this forum very much. Of course she has no access right now to Poser 3 and Vue so she can't check her thoughts personally but gave two options. #1 Save all elements from Poser 3 into pz2's separately. Character one file, hair another etc. And then import those to Vue separately. Guitta said, it should work that way. #2 Export as obj file from Poser and import that into Vue. One trick. Copy all the bitmaps (textures) into one folder first, apply them from there to your characters and then export your figure to that folder. Poser then will write a mtl-file to the obj file that contains the texture information. Inport the obj-file to Vue and see what happens. Guitta said as well that she thinks you have to do the different parts (character, hair etc) separately but i am not too sure about that. Try it out and let us know. What can happen is, that Vue still does not find the texture directly (i had that case before) but has a material "prepared" where i simply had to reconnect the texture again. Not a big thing. If you are not sure what texture, you can open the mtl-file in a word processor (or notepad or whatever), it is readable. And see what is written in there. Let us know what your experiences are.
