Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2025 Feb 10 10:34 am)
What I do is to export it as an .obj then load it into LW. But when you export it, put it into a folder and copy all the textures it requires into the folder too so Lightwave doesn't make you load them manually.

it used to be, in the days of Poser Pro Pak, that the Poser creators made a LW plug-in that imported complete Poser animations into Lightwave, it was sweet!There is still one, but it is not free anymore and is called BodyStudio by Reiss-Studio - seems that the site is down for maintenance so that I can't check for LW support. I know that Maya, Max, and C4D are supported. Without an FBX or other contemporary exporter, the Poser owners are making a rather strict statement - "we don't need no shtinkin' other 3D apps." They obviously don't want you to use their content in other 3D apps other than by static, official means - and pay for it no less.
If the target is a still, export the Wavefront OBJ, import into LW, and retexture. That costs nothing but a little inconvenience.

Hey all, I have both Poser 6 and Lightwave 8. I need a way of getting a completed Poser figure from Poser6 to Lightwave. Some other way that the tools Greenbriar Studio offers, because they are heavily overpriced.
Thank you
