The huge loading time for Poser 6 is mostly a function of the runtime library. Next time you close Poser, switch to an empty runtime folder and you'll see that next time you open Poser it loads a lot faster. Me, I'd like to see full support for Poser files before we start on DS - many aspects of Poser materials are not translated into Vue equivalents. I don't see why not. The use of bloated ASCII files for Poser has positive as well as negative effects. At least it means they are easy to decode.
