Hi Folks! Infini-D does a fair job of importing Poser figures in .3MF format. Of course, you cannot pose the figures since they enter Infini-D as one object. Moreover, if you want to be able to assign textures to certain body groups, they will have to be imported separately--a tedious job at best. A better approach (at least for props) might be to compose the object native in Infini-D and export it as a .DXF or .3MF file. I usually then open it in Painter 3D (which is included on the Poser CD) and then save the object as an .obj file. Again, for objects with posable parts or multiple maps, you'll need to export each part and reassemble it in Poser. Or you can open the files directly in UV Mapper, save them as .obj files with new names, create your own texture maps, and then bring them into Poser to reassemble. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only person continuing to use Infini-D. It's still my favorite 3D app; maybe someday it will be developed again. Peter (Dr Zik)
