Infinity10, that's so neat !!
FWIW, despite several distractions, I figured how to hack an OBJ's MTL to include calls to DIY transparency maps. This prompted by wrangling a freebie which had ~315 sub-objects concatenated in its OBJ. Major problem was some quirk of the OBJ format made model invisible within Poser. Solved by opening / re-saving from ($$) 3DOC.
Lesser problem was that many of those sub-objects called one of my three transparency maps.
After making a 'safety' copy, I edited the MTL using Notepad. To each eg...
newmtl Model001_Material001
Ns 8
Ka 0 0 0
Kd 1 1 1
Ks 0 0 0
map_Kd 000002248A4649B8.png
I added eg
d 0
map_d 000002248A4649B8Alpha.jpg
Certainly beat using Material room, as UI struggles beyond first page, so ~ 40 materials. And side-steps issue that file-name fields are short.....
This is 'Weathertop', a DA freebie ported from PSP to OBJ+MTL by Quake332 using 'NinjaRipper'.
Now, where did I save those pterodactyls ??
