I'm working on a PC and I saved some vob objects and materials.
Will Mac users be able to use them or do I have to do something special to make them Mac compatible?

Not that I know. I work with Vue on Mac since many years and never had problems in that. Beside the fact maybe that on Mac Vue only exists since version 4 so all files older than that (Vue 3.1 and earlier) can not be read.

Macs very rarely had problems with PC files as long as I can think of.

I work on a Mac and never had any problem with files for Poser or Vue.   As for the packaging - zip files or sit files are OK. I dont think exe files will work on a Mac. In fact I recently used your marketplace butterfly dress in the above image, and it all worked fine. It would be nice if vob files are included along with poser files.

@ArtPearl: Beautiful picture! Thanks for showing me and giving credit, too :)

But I don't think that dynamic clothing would work as a vob file in Vue, I think you still would have to do the clothing simulation in Poser... wouldn't you?

No, you're right - cloth, dynamic or conforming, still need to go through Poser. But I've seen that you do beautiful flowers as well, and those could come as a vob.  In my opinion there arnt enough vue flowers around. Particularly of the 'veg' type which could be used in eco systems. Veg files have to be done by modifying existing plants, so maybe that limits the variety of flowers that can be made, I  havnt looked into that part of vue yet, so I dont know.
Any other props/obj can be made into vob's, and it seems like merchants are begining to provide both.
Looking forward to what you come up with:)

Actually, my first Vue flower package is in review just now, hopefully it will be in the store soon ;)
The veg plants do not make good flowers; I wish there was a way to add plant parts or to control their shape and distribution.
However, used in ecosystems even obj plants work very well.

I'll drop you a line as soon as my flower pack is available :)
