I'm cross-posting this from the Lightwave Forum - maybe everyone else has already figured this one out - I had heard a lot of complaints earlier. - I've heard a lot of folks complaining about not being able to load 'squeezed' morphs into Pro Pack, even though they load fine into P4. Trying to get my Endomorph to obj files plugin working, I had to figure out this problem. After a lot of experimenting, I found two things that PP can't stand. Linefeeds (I'm a Unix guy, so I never use anything else) and the biggy - PP won't recognize the end of the file as the end of the vertex list like P4 will. It stops when it finds the first face 'f' line. This appears to be just the way they coded that section. Without a face line, 'can't read geometry file', add a dummy 'f 1 2 3 4' at the end of the file, works like a charm. Even word will let you add it on the end. NOTE - if you're on a Mac DON'T use textedit - it will change the type to something Poser won't 'see', but Word can change it back for you - just save as text only. Hope this helps someone!
