This is what I came up with. MAKING POSER MORPH TARGET'S IN CINEMA 4D on Macs Step-01-Open your figure in poser. Step-02-Then go to the menu: File> Export> Wavefront The dialog "Select a range of frames to be exported:" will open, select "Single frame" then press "Ok". Next the dialog "Hierarchy Selection" will open, Deselect the Universe (everything should now be unchecked). Then select just the body part you want to work with and check the box by it, then press "Ok". The next dialog box opens. Select just the "As Morph Target(no world transfromations)" option, Deselect all the others. Then press "Ok". Now you've created and saved a .obj file of your bodypart. Step-03- Now you then go to the menu: File> Import> Wavefront Select the .obj file you just made. The dialog "Prop import options" opens uncheck all except Make polygon normals consistent. Then press "Ok". The part will appear and be slightly off center compared to the original part. Step-04-Then go to the menu: File> Export> 3DS The dialog "Select a range of frames to be exported:" will open, select "Single frame" then press "Ok". Next the dialog "Hierarchy Selection" will open, Deselect the Universe (everything should now be unchecked). Then select just the body part you just imported in and check the box by it, then press "Ok". The next dialog box opens. Export as 3dstudio, give it a name and save. Now you've created and saved a .3ds file of your bodypart. Step-05-Open this .3DS file in Cinema4D and create your morph (follow your standard morph making precautions). When done export it out as a .obj file. The import/export factors for .3ds and .obj files in cinema4d, dont seem to matter just keep them the same for both file types. I've tried 1 and 100 in the factor setting and its worked ok. I then use MartinC's POSER MACONVERTER (http://www.soft-rabbit.com/) to make it real poser friendly. then back into poser and load it just like any other morphtarget. I've tried this on a couple of the standard poser models so far and it works ok.

Thank you, I'll have to give it a try.
