Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 May 28 9:01 pm)
Subject: Importing obj files into Poser
The obj file contains the geometry and the UV_Map. (The UV map is required to tell the app how and where the texture goes. The mtl file (that comes with the obj file) tells the app what texture to put on what polygons. The textures.
That are the 3 files you need. Once in Poser and the texture applied and saved by Poser you only need the obj file and the cr2 or pp2. => You can delete the mtl file as it is not required any more.
Almost all 3D apps can create UV-Maps on obj files like UV_Mapper, Wings, Blender, Roadkill, to name a few of the free 2D apps.
I've never used Collada so I don't know how well it works between C4D n Poser.
I'm sure .obj will work thou. between C4D n Poser.
any app can use flat uvmaps.
Pixars Ptex n zBrush Ptex looked maps depends on the app.so not sure if all apps can use them.
any app can use .jpgs but not all app's can use certain .extensions.
can't export n import shaders.
so you need to check n see if all apps support what ya using.

I believe I know what's going on. Even though I have applied the textures on the model in C4D and saved it, I am surmising that those textures do not automatically become UV mapped to the object but that the UV map is something I need to create manually. Thank you all for your replies.
probably need to learn all the different ways to put stuff on ya mesh youtube ,google C4D forums n all can teach you.

Hey, I'm new at Poser and I have a question. When I try to import an obj, Collada or any other 3d file from outside of poser the textures do not import correctly. Sometimes the textures are not there and sometimes they are just a different color. I have been exporting my obj files with an mtl file and have been using C4D to export them. Any idea how to fix this?
