I wrote a lengthy response to this thread and it never showed up. That will teach to be brief! Anyway the gist of it was that a member here named Konan has a beta program that will tranlate a poser animation sequence exported as a series of obj or 3ds meshes and then trim it down to a one useable 3ds file. Including all morphs and textures. This was design to be used with 3ds Max. But can be used with lightwave very easily if you get the program called Nugraf. Nugraf can translate the 3ds animation file according to its website seamlessly into a lightwave animation scene file. The cool thing about this is that Nugraf besides having its own raytracerscanline capabilities (including animation) it can export to a ton of other formats including POVray and BMRT. that is all.
