Is it possible to export a poser figure along with it's animation added to it. For instance exporting an animated walking poser figure into a 3d studio max format with the animation embedded into it.

You can export a multi-frame .obj from Poser. Basically if you have a 30-frame animation, it exports 30 .obj files. I have no idea if Max could read that as intended or not. The Poser Pro Pack has a plug-in for Max so that you can open up you Poser scenes right in Max. That would be the best way.

You can use Maximum Pose to translate the obj. sequence into Max format, w/animations, textures, etc. The propack works ok, except, you need to reset all transmaps after export, and at least on my apparently underpowered system (dual 933, 256MB, win2k), it crashes alot and corrupts the Max file.
