Quote - Barring any existing tools, my only 'quick' comment is... divining Poser's rigging system shouldn't be under-estimated. Each joint has it's own axis and rotation order and once you get that far, you still have to contend wiith the blend zones, spherical fall-off zones and (potentially) bulge settings (noting that all of those can and often are set differently for each axis). You may not be talking/thinking about messing with all of that though, depending on your approach.
He, post crossing!
Yep, I'd definitely try to avoid getting into all of the intricacies. My hope is - as I said in my post above - to bypass all that and just look at the effective weights. Not sure it'll work, but it seems worth an experiment.
Of course, if Dimension3D or PhilC had already done something like that, that would be even better. I have quite a few of their tools, so I'll go digging.
