School-room set is corner of A1-Classroom, extracted from MHA Ultra Impact by KittyInHiding , ported to XPS by o-dv89-o

The two Skye figures and their weapons come as XPS, which Poser cannot read. My ($$) 3DOC can read them, but only export to Poser-compatible file-types as static props, minus rigs. Happens free Noesis can read .MESH.ASCII, exporting as rigged FBX. So, I loaded XPS figures and weapons into XNA/Lara, exported .MESH.ASCII via ''Modify'' menu. I then used Noesis to port to FBX...
At Poser''s default ''100%'' import scaling, the figure loaded ''very small'', as four sub-rigs. Deleted, tried ten times bigger. This time, I could see ''toy soldier'' figure. Deleted, tried five times bigger again. This ''5000%'' looks okay. All four sub-rigs auto-loaded their textures.
Note the body-texture, TSkye1_dout.TGA, did not preview in Explorer. Both Irfan View and XN View opened it as grey swirls. Paint claimed it was not a valid file. Yet, there it is, in glorious technicolour...
The figure may be posed with care, using the *first* of the four sub-rigs where available. IIRC, tail was on a different rig. I masked the eyes and set them to glow using ''super ambience'', but they don''t show as set needed a lot of light to bring out figure''s colours.
Fortunately, I remembered to save the set (~600 MB) before trying a render. The combination of LaF outfit, big back-ground model and faffin'' with FBX scaling caused a bunch of errors and made parts of LaF invisible. I closed Poser, re-started, loaded saved scene. This time, was okay. Rendered with Superfly, progressive, 96 pixel-samples, 64 vols & buckets on my networked ''Box'' rather faster than I''d expected.

Irfan Skiljan for the win !!
quote:
This TGA uses alpha layer and IrfanView will apply it on loading, using the window color => no problem in IrfanView.
If you disable the alpha/transparency option in: Properties->Viewing ... Show transparency; reload the file ...
and you will see the image without transparency
I assume, the TGA was not properly saved ... if alpha layer is not needed/wanted, it must not be saved.
/
So, in Irfan View: Options, Properties / Settings, Viewing,
☑ Show PNG/TIF/DDS/EPS/RAW alpha / transparent colour.
Clear box...
Yay !!
