Re: Carrara and Poser 2005-03-29 - By jah_steama

I have been seeing posts that people are having problems and that
Eovia needs to aquire from Curious Labs the Poser 6 SDK to make it
fully compatible. It seems people have been able to open poser 6
scenes in with Transposer 2 but only by selecting a Poser exe file
other than the Poser 6 exe (such as poser 5 exe instead). And I have
also read that this method misses some of the features found in Poser
6.
Everyone concerned should contact Curious Labs and Eovia to make sure
Eovia gets the Poser 6 SDK as soon as possible.
