Hi.
I'm having problems importing P7 scenes into Carrera 6. It seems to import but there is no scene just a single dot int the XYZ axis. It has no problem with OBJ files, its seems to think its imported it but hasn't.

Any ideas?

Hi Chrisdoa, Did you do any animation in P7 are you just trying to bring in a static file? There can be several reasons for this so I'm just trying to narrow them down. Mark

I had this problem too.

Try opening it directly from Posers Runtime files.

There are several things that can be troublesome with Poser imports so I won't cover them all until we have some more details. However, the preferred way to do open files is not by "importing" them but instead, adding the Runtime to your Content area in the Browser Tab. (you can have multiple Runtimes, I have 3 - P7, P6 and C6) Then just drag the scene into your Carrara scene. This prevents trying to import the "wrong" part of Poser scene and lets Carrara automatically grab the correct file it needs to open the P7 files properly. Mark

I had problems using Poser 7 content. In the end I stopped using Poser 7 completely and went back to using Poser 6.

PS - I think DAZ didn't get the Poser 7 SDK so Carrara could be viewed as 'Poser 6 compatible'.  That could also explain any incompatibilities with P7 Content.

Hi. I'm having problems importing P7 scenes into Carrera 6. It seems to import but there is no scene just a single dot int the XYZ axis. It has no problem with OBJ files, its seems to think its imported it but hasn't. Any ideas? Have you downloaded and installed the latest Carrara update? The first build of Carrara 6 Pro was pretty much broken when it came to Poser 7 file imports, but the update fixed many of the problems.

Hi.  I sometimes get this.  When it happens, try this..  Use the resize tool and make the dot bigger.  I have had some times when it actually imported but it imported so small that all you could see was a dot.  Resizing helped.  This wasn't the only such issue.  Sometimes I had to go back into poser 7 and edit the file or change clothing or hair items.  Sometimes no matter what I tried, it would have problems.  I seem to have more issues when I am using the V4 Mesh model.  V3, S3,A3 etc all work great but sometimes V4 just refuses to import correctly.  I am slowly moving away from using Poser.  I am trying to get more familiar and comfortable with using C6 Pro to directly model people instead of doing poser imports.
