Hi livingos,

I am no expert in exchanging data between Poser and Carrara, but it seems you are right.
It seems to be the translation settings of the joints.

While poser is just using the rotation and ignoring the translation for IK-chains Carrara is using
the settings as written in the cr2-file. For example these settings in poser

will similar to this in Carrara:

I don't know how others are building their cr2-files (again I am no expert so for sure there are easier ways to do this), but different things worked for me:

**a)
**limit the max and the min of each translation dial that is affected to zero in poser - I don't know if there are tools or scripts for this. Carrara will read the constraint like this:

b)
open your cr2-file in a cr2 editor and change the visibility of the dials to invisible.
Carrara will read the invisible translation constraints as locked. I think this is how the
most characters are done too

c)
in case you don't want to work with poser anymore/ don't want to edit the cr2-file of course you can simply adjust the constraints in Carrara too.
