  1. There are two types of .rsr files. The first is a thumbnail. You'll find that located in the same directory with the .cr2, you don't need to delete this. The second type is a resource file that Poser uses to load geometry quicker (I think because it's binary rather than asci text?). You need to delete this whenever you make changes to the .obj. This one is named the same as the .obj file (but with the .rsr extension) and is located in the same directory. 2) Yes you can re-export the geometry out of Poser as an .obj. You will want to make sure the figure is in a zero'd out position first. Turn off any IK chains you have set, open the Joint editor and hit the 'Zero Figure' button. Check the body and hip to make sure that x, y and z trans are all set to 0.000. Finally, when you export, make sure you have 'Use existing body part groups in polygon groups' checked (and all of the other boxes unchecked). After that, open the .obj in Compose or UV Mapper to make sure that all your groups are named correctly for reference by the cr2. If not, you can change the group names in the above mentioned utilities. Hope this helps.
