Welcome to the community. Your CD burner is about to test the manufacturer's MBTF spec.... Saint MartinC's webpage is the attached link: all the software is freeware and EVERY Mac user here uses it. Poser MacConverter will convert back and forth between Mac/PC formats and MacInstaller will install the files into the proper directories (something that PC users get automatically from decoding ZIP files with WinZip). PoserMacConverter is also extremely useful because it integrates the function of OBJActionMover, a utility users built to share figures without sending the copyrighted meshes they're built off. So, if you unzip a file and it has a readme that says you need OBJActionMover to decode the .PCF file, just drop the .PCF's folder onto MacConverter and it'll hunt down the 'seed' file on your computer and decode the .PCF. This'll all make sense before long. Morphs technically don't need to be converted because they don't have .RSR files, but MacConverter is still necessary because Poser's Load Morph Target Open... dialog is unsophisticated and requires the morph's .OBJ file to have the correct type and creator instead of simply recognizing .OBJ files by file extension -- if they aren't converted they won't appear in the dialog box.
