I have a Poser dragon, I set up a Poser scene, save it, and load it in Carrara 5, with or without the Tranpose but parts of my character does not have it's texture while in Poser it did render. Any idea why?

I normally find that the imported characters end up with simple shaders e.g. just a plain colour in Carrara. I have been reapplying the shaders to the model each time I load it. However if you use Transposer and keep the link to the poser file then you should only need to do that once.

Interesting. I just checked, with obj file format. At first it seems that the parts of my dragon is not renderd. The I go and check the material, and it is really there so when I render it it is there. Odd, but then again, I am still happy with Carrara :-)

Also, don't forget that if you adjusted the texture a Poser object within Carrara, you can save that shader into your Shader Browser. Then later, you can simply drag and drop your improved shader onto imported Poser objects to avoid the need to again adjust the shader for a Poser import.

Nice :-) Currently I am doing it through obj files. Only the dragon gives me this problem so far.

All the preview modes are inaccurate and can give unexpected results. I find often the preview gives me totally different results than the render so keep that in mind.Also alphas seem to be a problem with GI, but everything else seems to come in.
No need to think outside the box....
Just make it
invisible.
