A 570MB object is a whole lot to be imported into Poser. Maybe the polygoncount is to high.

What is the polygon/point count on this thing?  At that size, it must be hundreds of thousands if not millions of polygons and points.  Poser can't handle that.  Poser can barely handle V4. ;)

In Cinema 4D, use the Polygon Reduction deformer or, if you have used HyperNURBS, reduce the subdivision values.  Then reexport.

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.

can't prove it, but one trick I think some modelers use is to leave the polycount low on the model, while creating details with the UVMapping textures.
