Hi folks!

This is at least the second time I have nearly insurmountable problems getting my Poser 6 charater into Vue 7.4 infinite.

This is what my current test renders look like in Poser 6:

And this is what a test import into Vue 7.4 infinite looks like...

Obviously, I have used dynamic cloth in Poser 6, and I suppose the problems are related to this. What is invisible in Vue is not just the dynamic cloth but the Figure the dynamic cloth is attached to, plus a few props attached to this figure, although some of thoser emain visible, strangely... I should add that in my very first import attempt the woman was visible but the dynmic cloth was imported incorrectly.

I have recalculated the dynamic cloth several times in Poser, I have resaved the scene under several scene names and I have created a new one with the guy into which I imported the scene with the woman warrior. In Vue, I have unchecked "use quaternion interpolation" in the import menu. All this hasn't brought the invisiblewoman back yet ;)

I have had the very same problem with my last image where I used the same character with dynamic cloth as well. There, I got so frustrated that I made her invisible in Poser 6 and put a naked but morphed andt extured clone exactly into her position. This helped and suddenly the original woman became visible in Vue again, so that I could finally delete the clone again.

I would reallylike to understand what is going on here - and rectify it.

Any idea anyone...?

Your poser files are compressed, you need to run the "uncompress script" inside Poser and then resave your pz3.
It will then come into Vue properly...
This is a known issue with Vue not liking obz etc. files..

Thanks for the tip! Hasn't quite worked for me until now, however. Do you have any suggestions on how to run this python script? I have let it run over my entire curious labs folder with my running P6 folder  and my P4 folder where most of my active runtimes are.  I have done this several times over now and then resaved my present Poser file, both under its name, then under a new name.

Neither import has worked though...

Rather frustrating, to be honest...

No, sorry, if you've run the script on your runtimes and the problem persists, then it must be something else...
Uncompressing usually sorts this problem out, I don't have anything else to suggest, sorry..

There should be a way of turning off compression, I would think, for the next scene you save.
