Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2025 Feb 09 1:04 pm)



Subject: .RSR and .MTL extension


Eiseprod ( ) posted Mon, 17 November 2008 at 10:19 AM · edited Thu, 06 February 2025 at 7:51 PM

Please, I need some help on how to import  .rsr extension file along with its material into poser. I'm totally new to poser and I know this is probably a beginner's question but please don't be annoyed with it.

Also,  when  I model an object in the free open source 3D software BLENDER and import to poser, the object does not import with its material. The material is saved seperately as an .MTL file but I do not know how to attach this .mtl file to the imported .obj file in  poser.

I use poser 7.

Thank you.

.rsr is the Windows equivalent of a MacOS resource.  Its only use for Poser (these days) is to store the Library thumbnail for a Poser content item.  Poser uses them for this automatically - you don't import them.

You import the related Wavefront .obj file and Poser will handle the .mtl (there is a reference in the .obj file pointing to the .mtl if it exists).  The .mtl is very simple and usually you will only get a few parameters from it and possibly some texture maps stored as image files.  For the image file texture maps, they will need to be with the .obj and .mtl in a relative location (either in the same folder or a sub-folder depending upon the extent of the references in the .mtl file).  Both .obj and .mtl are text files, so you can simply open them up in a text editor to see any references.

As far as Poser 7 is concerned, rsr files are no longer a requirement.  They have been replaced by png image file.

As far back as Poser 5 they have been no longer required but some content vendors (starts with a 'D') still use .rsr and Mac resources in their products (and considering that MacOS 10.5 is trying to wipe their continued use out completely).  Luckily, Poser converts them to png for us. :)
