Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2025 Jan 09 3:46 am)
The figure is based on a Poser model and includes data (mesh) from that model. This material is copyrighted to the original creator and may not be distributed in whole or in part. So how may these modified figures be distributed? The solution is to encrypt the OBJ file using the original copywriten model as the key. Upon receiving this encrypted (PCF) file a Poser user may unlock it using their copy of the original OBJ file. Bone fide Poser users will both have the same original figure, and hence the key.
The Objaction Mover program produced by Maz enables the sharing of copyrighted material between Poser users without infringing on that copyright. He has kindly made it freely available from his site. http://www.sandylodge.demon.co.uk/ (Commercial applications require permission).
Referring to the image above, the procedure is as follows:-
Using pcf-files is a method to transfer geometries without actually tranferring the obj-file, usually because the obj-file is copyrighted. By using a pcf-file, you make sure that the receiver must have the original obj-file in order to use your geometry. In order to decode the pcf-file, you need Objaction Mover, a utility you can find in Free Stuff here at Renderosity (do a search for "Objaction Mover"). You also need the original obj-file of course :-)

What is it? I downloaded a file, and Poser ask for an OBJ, I checked the zip ... no obj, but it had PCF and a RSR.
