Just to get the obvious things out of the way; What are you importing it as? Obj? 3ds? Which DAZ Dragon? Classic, Millenium, Millenium 2.0? AgentSmith

Sometimes with the 'old' Bryce 5.0 I got similar problems, especially with the millenium dragon. But only if choose the 3ds-format. Are you using D/S? My suggestion: Try to import the dragon as an obj; if this doesn't work, try it with an un-textured dragon.

I AM importing the dragon in obj,...... but when agent smith says which dragon?,,,,,I'm starting to wonder,,,,what the hell would that change,,,an obj. is an obj,!,,, yes?...no?...what?

lol - normally yes, but some objects cause more problems with the impoer Poser/Bryce than others. Don't ask me why I think nobody knows. Again the question: do you use Daz Studio for the import? I've had a lot of problems with it, spoiled poses, no transmaps etc. If you got a bad-media-error, I would say, forget this dragon and make it completely new in Poser, then try again the export.

Also check to make sure any textures used are not more than 32 charaters in lenth for names and are not larger than 4000 x 4000.

You can use Grouper or MeTaL Fixer to fix the I/O Media error. MeTaL Fixer is available at my site - http://www.fignations.com/jelisa/mtl/mtl_fixer.html Grouper is available at http://www.castironflamingo.com
