thanks for the reply, I had had some doubts that any of the cr2's I had were close enough to do the trick but it turns out the problems I was having trying to do it at first were due to something else. I was hoping there was a reasonable way to create a character from an obj inate in poser but after reading about creating an heir file and joint paramaters I found a cr2 that worked. I really need to get power pack soon :)
