Back Hi Naomi,
oh yeah Grouper is great but really unnecessary for importing to Carrara. Though I think it may help with V3 and newer Daz models in some ways since they have so many skin materials.
Babel reads a PZ3 poser file and collects all your textures for you, including transmaps. Grouper does a similar thing by collecting the textures associated with an obj, but Poser doesnt export all that information into an obj file so its more tedious to do that with grouper.
I use layers list shaders instead, and export in several different objs which are then popped into their exact place in Carrara. Basically I do the scene in one obj, the figures each in their own objs, and the hair is also exported separately to its own obj.
I promise to write up some of this stuff because its so simple and so easy to do it this way.
take care, Robin
