Well here is the response I received from Vanishing Point. I am disapointed there was nothing on the Blackhawk model page that informed me that the models weren't made for use in Vue. This "geometry switching" sounds like the reason the propellers and windows won't import. If anyone has a workaround for this I would appreciate it.
In the meantime I wouldn't recommend the Vanishing Point Blackhawk helicopter from Vanishing Point if you are wanting to use it in Vue.
I don't want to sound mean, but none of our models are
meant for use in Vue except for the "Executive
Helicopter (for Vue)". I can try to help you out, but
I don't even own Vue Infinite.
The Blackhawk uses "geometry switching" to hide and
show the blades, but Blue Thunder does not. This could
be what's causing the issue in Vue.
Try unzipping all of the Blackhawk files (obj files,
textures, etc) into one folder and then try importing
the model from there. When Vue imports the Poser file,
try pointing it at the folder with the obj and texture
files. Hopefully this will do the trick.
