I've found Crossroads... but I'm having some trouble with it...  I haven't
figured out what format I should export from Poser to import into
crossroads... so far I've tried .3ds, which came out all screwed up . . .
Image was inverted and had no textures.

I'm trying another format now... it's been "reading" it for so long I don't
even remember what the format was... as of now it's reading line 3,000,000
+.  I'm about to go to bed... maybe when I get up it'll be done... (running
a 1.2 Ghz Pentium III with 64 megs ram...)

Can anyone reccomend an import/export file combo that will work effectively?
Or maybe another software package??  I tried ObjuvPov but it doesn't seem to
be working... the source file it generated is calling on a .tga file as an
image map... but the .tga doesn't exist anywhere.

AAARRRGGGHHH!!!

I've been playing with poser for a week now and made all kinds of people and
think its great but I need to be able to use them!!!  :)

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!
Dayv

I suggest you take a look at this: www.oyonale.com  . The tools
section includes an article on various tools and ways to convert poser
to pov and the pitfalls with each.
Hope this helps,

AAARRRGGGHHH...

Posray won't work for me for some reason... as it's converting I keep
getting an error "List index out of bounds (-1)."

I've gotten the best results so far from 3dWin... and that gives me my
figure with one solid pigment, in a right handed coordinate system so he's
laying down and will need to be rotated at best...
