and 8.5 has messed imported scale up so Vicky 4 is the size of a titan!

I gotta feeling I do't have to mention this to you, but I would suggest that anyone having (similar) problems, report this to e-on. The more info they get, the bigger the change this may be solved..

Most all of this has already been done by me when I was working with their tech support earlier this year. If you want, you can look at my threads over on the e-on web site and search for Poser import problems to find more on this.

Basically, I was assigned a tech, Neil, that worked with me on many of the Poser importing issues. They were not aware of many of the issues until I reported them and sent them source files explaining each problem. I was able to fully confirm at least 5 known bugs and Neil said when he tested they went all the way back to Vue 7.5 builds. Bottom line is the problems lie in the Smith Micro SDK and both him and Lee at e-on said there was no fix they can do unless Smith Micro updates their SDK for them. Mainly, they blame Smith Micro for all these issues.

The scaling and re-sizing are known issues I reported as was the Poser Shader Tree, OOM errors at random times, conforming and more. For now, Neil and Lee said it is hit and miss for the re-sizing and scaling and to leave the re-size on import turned OFF. Also, Neil said it was best to leave "Poser Shader Tree" turned OFF as we found many errors where it did not work or translate as it should from Poser when it was ON.

I have asked MANY times when or if they are going to write their OWN code and not rely on Smith Micro SDK for all this to work. But the last I heard is they have no plans and it is unknown when or if Smith Micro will update the SDK. This is what makes no sense to me because other programs don't have this much trouble getting Poser to work OK, such as C4D. Also, I was told their is NO OFFICIAL support for any Poser Pro products such as Poser Pro 2010. To try it with the Poser 7 or Poser 8 import settings and see if it works.

So, for now things are broken and seem like they will remain that way until Smith Micro and e-on work more together on this with the SDK. I am starting to lose hope in any of this gets fixed since it goes back to Vue 7.5 and there is no word at all on any fixes for these issues. One of the main reasons I got Vue was to work with Poser imports in my scenes and this has certainly put a damper on that big time for me. I really don't know if I will continue to use Vue or not if they don't fix this soon and not just talk about it and blame Smith Micro.
