Also. On the subject of conversion...
is it feasible to convert Dforce dynamics intended for genesis for use in the cloth room of poser? That is, is it possible to get an .obj from a Dforce item, morph it (using various means) into a reasonable approximation of a particular Poser figure, and drape and fit it onto said Poser figure with reasonable results? In particular loose fitting items. I need a well made dynamic Nun's habit and the only one that I've seen is Dforce.
Of course it is and I've been doing it for some time. I used to use D3D's dsf Tools but lately I've found the DUF Prop Converter for Poser much easier and faster. In fact, we even had a Poser Pulse Challenge and several members showed their results.
Here are some of my conversions - mainly from G8F to La Femme but there's one fitted to L'Homme as well.

Once the script converts the .duf to a .pp2 all you need to do is some minor resizing and I usually fit it using the Morph Tool although I suppose the fitting room could also be used - I just never got the hang of all the details needed to retain certain shapes without overshrinking so I prefer working with the Morph Tool. Parent it and save it. I now have a Runtime where I put all the Daz products I buy to convert so I can also link it to Poser and save the textured items as .mc6 files as well if I plan to use them regularly.
