Rather than tack this on to the end of the current Bryce 6 thread, I'll start a new one. A lot of people assume that importing Poser figures into Bryce directly (as in Vue) would be a good idea. I'm not so sure. It is suggested that it is advantageous in Vue to be able to import a Poser figure with all the textures in place. But that means putting the textures in place in Poser, which has a horrible materials editor (I'm talking P4 here). You get much better results doing all the texturing in Bryce with its far superior texture capabilities. But in that case, there's no advantage in reading a pz3 file rather than an obj file. What would be neat would be to apply OLE - remember that? Object linking and embedding. In other words, if you have a Poser figure in Bryce (textured in Bryce) and you wish to change the pose, double-click on the embedded figure, the Poser interface appears, you adjust the pose, and the interface switches back to Bryce. Just as you can edit, say, a Corel Draw image embedded in a Word document without leaving Word.
