Quote - But I still don't understand the value of it being there. I can see as a file with injectors and such but what value would it have with all the other stuff. I tried opening it Poser 7 and it didn't open anyway so what's the point?

The .pmd file contains morph data in a compressed format, as noted.  The benefit would be that multiple files or figures could have their morphs contained in one .pmd, reducing cr2 and pz3 file bloating.  If you have multiple instances of Victoria 4, which contain the same morphs, in a scene and you're using external binary morph targets, when you save the scene you'll have one .pmd referenced by both figures.

Les and many of the rest of us distrust .pmd files except for use in morph injection.  Some unusual and troubling Poser errors have been traced back to the use of external binary morph targets, going back to Poser 6 when they were introduced.  Those of us who like to edit our Poser files may also prefer to have all the data contained in the file, where we can see it and modify it as desired.

The .pmd file file can't be opened or edited in Poser.  If you need to modify them you can use Dimension 3D's PMDEdit utility, or (if one exists) another like it.

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.
