ViciousCircle - you can't import them AS VOB files - you import them as Pz3 or OBJ into a blank scene, then save them in Vue as a VOB. Open your next scene/scene you want to add it to, and load your new VOB. The upside - imports and renders much faster. The downside - if you want to make changes to your figures/models in Power they won't be updated in Vue meaning you need to do the process again.

Sorry to all of you having what sounds like disastrous problems - haven't had any myself. Of course I also don't mess with C3D or import dynamic Poser content either - I prefer to make my own models.

On that note, I have XSI Found., Strata 3DCX, and C4D-XL bundle and I STILL find myself importing everything into Vue5Inf for assembly and rendering - Vue's lighting, atmo, and rendering tools are by far the easiest to manage and surprisingly deep hidden by a very simple looking interface. These are by far more professional programs yet I RELY on Vue to finish the jobs without a hitch - which it does.

Sometimes programs don't like others on your system, sometimes they don't like the brand of memory (believe it or not) regardless of how much there is, the graphics card, the motherboard, if the hard drive has over 75% capacity things slow down, yadda yadda yadda. While a nightmare may be happening on one person's computer, it's not on others' - so there's bound to be any number of reasons why it does or doesn't work on someone's computer, given that Vue5 is the exact same code and build for us all.

I'll be getting V6 when it's released without a second thought.
