The DAZ|Studio 4 FAQ states, and I quote,

Quote - Is the GenesisTM series compatible with Poser?
The Genesis series of figures relies on powerful new technologies that are currently exclusive to DAZ Studio 4. However, the new file format that the Genesis series utilizes is an open, ASCII format that can be interpreted easily.

Time for the dumbest question of the week!

I have seen talk about a file that has the Genesis character in it (sort of like a Cr2 I assume) that has an extension something like .dsf....So if DAZ states the file " file format that the Genesis series utilizes is an open, ASCII format", has anybody bothered to try to open the file with a text editor?

If it is just an ascii text file then it is going to be a lot easier to read the file via a script and convert to a poser .cr2 file I would think. But elsewhere I thought I read that the file was compiled.

which is it?

 

 

I think there was some confusion from some people who assumed the new .dsf format was the same as the old .daz scene file format which was complied, the .dsf format is definately open ASCII format.
