Quote - I only recently delved into rigging with a lot of help from a friend here, but was having a similar issue with my clothes going to bits when I posed the figure.  After you have grouped the figure and made it conforming, saved it to your library etc etc etc. open a new scene and reimport the item from the obj that Poser created and stuck in your figures folder.  Reweld all the groups again and save that obj back to your folder where it was under the same name.  Then again, start a new scene, bring in Miki4, load and conform the item, it should keep it from going to pieces. 

Hope that helps, if not, it is beyond my meager rigging skills.    

I think the problem was I auto grouped the chest armor because I was looking for a short cut, and it broke it up into too many groups along some places it shouldn't have. I am going to redo the grouping in Wings so that it only has the necessary groupings in places that make sense. Then it should be ok. If not, I will try out your suggestion and see what it does.

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
