I don't know if this does it before 4.03, but another and myself have noticed that neither 03 or 05 will import an .objfile that has been saved with the first letter of the filename an f (either case). So far I've found it for obj made with wings, nendo, and poser4 .. is it just us two, or do others find this?

Vue 3.1 would never import a .obj named "fang" if exported from Poser... I've discovered it seems that any of the primitives from Poser exported as .obj have a problem getting into Vue.

Hm...the fang syndrome strikes again? When you rename the OBJs, do they import okay then? Definitely a curious bug!

LOL I've never had this kind of problem. As I save in french names, I have lots of femme.obj, fille.obj, they all import normally. Guitta

Renaming both the obj and mat files doesn't seem to fix it. Both of us on two different machines get the message 'unable to read,' and we are a continent apart. Guitta's having no problem suggests its in the English language module? Fortunately, the user fix is simple :)

Huh...but if you create (or export) the same OBJ with a different name, then it imports to Vue okay? This is just so bizarre. The fang.obj thing was bizarre, too. They just make no sense. Yes possibly the problem is with the language thingie.

I have to say I use the english version of Poser and Vue, not the french one. I only save in french names. Only my Windows98 is in french. Guitta

Varian: Yep - create with a different name is no problem.
Guitta: Ouch - there goes that theory - so maybe its in W98?
.. I sent the info to e-on, but I thought I should mention it here so if anyone else gets
the problem they'll not waste time vexing over it and just use a no-f name for exports

Yeah, it's an odd one, alright. Computers are sometimes just plain strange! :o
