As a matter of fact the Poser plugin does work. I've been doing some short animations (learing the ropes) in Poser and importing them directly. Some P4 models are a bit unstable in RDS5.5, but so far I'm having a 95% or higher success rate! To all of you THANK you for the links and suggestions. I'll try and post some of the animations and pics this upcoming weekend when I get back from San Francisco. Take care all, Falcon
