A JSON reader/writer comes with Poser as part of the standard Python distribution. Also, with ctypes one can call functions in any C DLL.

I wouldn't have thought that reading in the information from this DSON file would be any kind of major issue, if it is just a JSON variant, reading in text-based data itself is fairly trivial...

But I've read a bit more now and I'm thinking that, in terms of Genesis, unless the DSON file had, embedded inside it, an already subdivided genesis obj model file... I can't see how it's going to provide any more utility than the Daz Studio CR2 exporter already does...?

If that DSON file is going to be just a scene inventory... then I guess your plugin or importer would still need to read in those proprietary Daz Studio dsf asset files, do some on the fly catmull-clark subivision (don't know if there's a Python library for that) and then transpose the weight-mapping data....??? For starters...

Hmmm...

Well, it may well be possible, to do some external scripting of Blender, relative to the catmull-clark stuff? That might be an idea for anyone reading this a year from now, if writing a plugin looks like it could be a goer?
