(i like the pose, looks cool, and can't wait til you finish this piece and hopefully show us)

Ok, when you import a poser scene file... you get options that come up - two seperate windows of them, actually.  I want to know what boxes you have checked and which ones you dont.

textures are tricky things, and i think this is another of those cases of "lost in translation" from Poser to Vue.  They are not 100% compatable in materials/textures.  Some of the detail created in Poser - such as a lot of the nodes in the material room - simply do not import unless you have the "render materials using Poser shader tree" turned ON - unfortunately, this makes your computer work a LOT harder, and in most cases isn't needed - as you can recreate a lot of the effects in Vue itself.

My typical poser import settings are:

Import Options window:  "Center Object" is turned on.  Resize is turned off.
Poser Import Options window: "Group Figures as single meshes" is on, and the rest is turned off.  Animated mesh options - Import single Frame.
IF you want vue to try to render using poser's shader tree (the results arent always all that good), then this is where you turn that option on.

if you have the shader tree turned on, try it turned off.  if its off, try it turned on and see if that helps.

Rarer than a hairy egg and madder than a box of frogs....
