Quote - I don't understand. Why not just prefix the material name with the name of the figure or prop it is in? What is the problem you are trying to solve here?

I would like to part things. Object orientation may help to keep things easy. So a geometry exporter should do not more than export a geometry. Solving the material problem is another part.

Having things seperated may help to add extensions later. 

Object: Put some things in (materialname and a pointer to a Poser geometry here), pull the trigger and get someting out (converted geometry ready to use with Lux).

Advantage: If the material-strategy is changed later, the geometry exporter will work as before.

This is the point where the language barriere stops me :(
