I've been scratching my head about how come Victoria can look OK in Poser, but when I export and bring her into trueSpace she has texture mapping problems around the eyes. I finally figured out that she has redundant geometry! The same verticies and polygons appear multiple times, with different texture mapping in each instance. For example, if I just export the eyes, I get the whole spheres associated with the material "Eyeballs", then most of the same verticies and polygons again with the material "Eyewhites", and another subset of the same with material "Irises", and yet another repeated subset with material "Pupils". All of the visible parts of the eyeballs are represented by multiple identical polygons, and God Only Knows how Poser manages to render the right ones. Has anybody tried rendering Victoria in a different program? What kind of results did you get? Jude
