dlk30341 I'm not sure what your asking about C5 and P6, I've mostly used Carrara as a modeler and I'm only exploring the Poser stuff now.. I've very successfully imported Poser figures (Aiko, M3 and V3) into C5 and been able to pose them reasonably well with the C5 bones coversions using the native importer (Not Transposer yet). I've also been able to import P6 scenes into C5 and rendered them. I had 3 slight issues... One, the clothing I imported on V3 Girl Next Door 2 came into C5 as a solid color rather than the see thru it was in Poser, I'm not up to speed enough yet, so I couldn't correct that problem, but I'm sure it's on my learning curve not the programs. The second issue wasn that on opening the scene in C5, C5 asked for me to locate a file, but didn't indicate what file to locate (or even what type of file to locate) I finally realized it was looking for the .OBJ file for the tranmapped hair in the scene. Once I realized that and located the proper file everything worked well. The third issue is another shading problem, so, agin it's probaly on me to figure out what I'm doing wrong. GND2 uses Blackhearted's own eye figures and shaders. In C5 the eye shaders dont show up right and the eyes look strange. I've attached a fast render to show what I mean. If there are any tests I can try let me know, as I said my experience level is low in this area but I'll try.. mike
