Quote - Is there a way to distribute a scene with V4 in it but does not include the geometry? Then, the comparison would only be for those who have V4.
I can export V4 with cloth and hair as a "point cloud" .mdd but I wonder if that is a copyright violation? Carrara won't import that point cloud. Max, XSI, Modo and Maya will. Also PoserPro. Actually, that is not a very good approach.
How about a scene plus a pose file? You load the scene, click in your own licensed V4 and apply the pose to put her in the right place?

People would need their own licensed copy of V4. She'd need some sort of hair & texture, too -- which could be a copyright issue. People who wanted to participate would need a licensed copy of the character, the hair, and the clothes. Beyond that, your scene + a preset pose for the figure might work. Of course, all of the textures used in the scene would have to be copyright-free -- or perhaps something that comes pre-loaded with Poser.
Another potential solution would be to use the built-in Poser figures. Although I personally prefer using V4.
Yet a third potential solution would be to get all of the people who wanted to participate to agree to purchase licensed copies of a few scene elements (character, clothes, hair).......after agreeing upon precisely what those elements should be.
