Thx for the hint, Varian. Well I've tried it out and must say that the textures are now on the model, but sometimes are distorted awfully. Some Deatils don't really look good... there are some "green stripes" around her stomach, for example. I still wonder why the first version of the model (the one with the poser standard textures) worked fine even with .3ds exporting/importing. Could it be possible that the resolution of the new texture is the main problem to all of this? It's a 16001600 texture with 100 dpi. Well after all I guess I'll upgrade to Vue 4.0, as far as I read it can import real Poser files... I'm pretty new to rendering, but it's lots of fun and worth every minute (and money).
