I was under the impression operaguy was not interested in workin with the characters directly in max though.<<

i am not....at the moment.......

I just want to see if I can light and render a finished Poser animation in Max with little fuss. Purpose: render speed gain.

The option of actually working with Max's rich toolset -- on Poser mesh or not -- is another choice I may make. Think I'll let me son be the pioneer on that!
