Don't know if it's just me, or if there's a problem with Poser 6's new characters (Ben, James, Jessi & Kate). When I save any of the four new figures as a PZ3 and attempt to import into Vue5i, they will not import. If I export the "casual" ones, the clothing will appear, but not the figure itself. I've tried with "binary morph targets" & "file compression" turned off & on, but it makes no difference. No error messages, the figures simply do not import. No problem if I export them as 3ds, obj, etc., but not when saved as PZ3's.......also no problems with any of the P4-P5 figures or Daz figures (or anything else, just those 4 characters). Anyone else experiencing this??

This is "Ben", saved as a PZ3, and imported into Vue 5i, there seems to be something missing :o)

Make sure you have the latest version of V5I. (build 276163) Also under your V5I options, make sure you've got Poser 6 set as your default Poser directory. BTW: 276163 is still a beta and has minor problems. From what I can see, importing dynamic hair from Poser 6 causes V5I to crash. -SMT

I'd rather stay in my lane than lay in my stain!

Thanks, I don't have the latest update installed, but I do have Poser 6 set as my default directory. I was going to wait awhile before installing the latest, but I guess if I want to use these, I'll have to install it. Appreciate the information.

You also have to disable external binary morph targets in Poser 6 (you can do that from Preferences). Vue isn't compatible with that aspect of P6 yet.

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter

Again, thanks for the imput, I tried with external binary morph targets disabled, makes no difference. Guess I'll just have to install the latest upgrade........
