Mike, Thanks for answering! I'll try to explain better. Unfortunately I'm not well-versed at all in the Setup room and how grouping works. We primarily just use Poser as a base and bring everything into LW.
First, I can use Lightwave5.5 to import/export any OBJ files. Essentially, what I need to do is ONLY replace the teeth from the Toon Hiro with the teeth from the base Hiro model. I wish it was as simple as opening one OBJ, altering it, and replacing it - but apparently Poser won't allow this since there must be more in the OBJ file than LW can see.
The new model we created from the Hiro Toon character apparently refences the Hiro Toon OBJ. So we figured if we altered the Hiro Toon character with the replaced teeth, our new character would have the correct teeth. But we can't find a way to easily accomplish this.
Any ideas? ;)
