Quote - Is any of this making sense?

Poser's grouping tool seems to be adding numeric suffixes (:1, :2, etc.) to materials, when certain alterations are made to groups using the tool.  Poser also adds these suffixes to groups when multiple geometries are exported together.

I had a thread about it, a week or so ago.  The only solution anyone seems to have is to use a text editor to use search and replace to remove the suffixes.

I'm not sure what you're asking, though, about the .obj export and saving a character file.  What do you mean? 

I've had to fix a few of my own files when they've had these problems, though.  I'd be happy to look at yours and try to fix whatever has happened.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
