Hi Folks. Carrara Studio is where I do my modelling. As my modelling skill slowly develops, I'd like to build some objects in Carrara (they have to be vertex only [polygons]for Poser, a tutorial told me...) to be used in Poser. My understanding is that Wavefront obj is the only way to go. Now, I know Poser and Carrara both use Inverse Kinematics (IK) to make the hip control the thigh control the shin control the foot. As in: 'move the hand, the arm and body follow. In Carrara, this heierarchy is created by dropping one object on another. I'm using the boom arm from my Chapman PeeWee movie dolly. I've been able to find tutorials on Poser to Carrara. And I have Transposer. I don't think it (Transposer) will go in the opposite direction, from Carrara to Poser. Questions: is anyone out there doing the same thing, Carrara to Poser? If there is someone, have you found any decent tutorials on exporting Carrara obj's to Poser? Do you know how to keep the hierarchy you made in Carrara? I've attached the simple arm, basically 3 objects, and it's hierarchy, with Poser labels. Do they need to be exported as single objects and organized in Poser? So to re-cap, I'm exporting a wavefront obj from Carrara 3 and importing it into Poser 4 on the Mac and I lose the hierarchy. You need the hierarchy to make it poseable. Help! :/ deedub
