The poses must either be loaded into Poser 11 and saved there as a pose, or you can buy the Poser Format Exporter from DAZ.

Can Daz export BioVision (.bvh)? If yes maybe it can be used to bring poses, as Poser 12 can import it (manual here). BVH is widely used for mocap (motion capture).

Yes, DAZ Studio can also export to BioVision (bvh) format. I have no experience with it, but I should try it soon. Or just write me when you have tried it.

Even the solution I described is not really perfect. But it helps if you want to use some Genesis or Genesis 2 figures in Poser. Some figures/clothes cannot be exported with it. And morphs that are in the subdivision sometimes get lost. Also the bending does not always look good. It works best with props or vehicles as long as no instances are used. Props with instances must be converted with the script "Instances to Objects" from Code 66, then they can get exported.

But in the end, the main work is always in the materials, everyone must decide for themselves whether the effort is worth it..

But I always like to use one or the other DAZ prop/figure, if only to show what is possible with good figures and materials.
