I spent much of afternoon trying to duplicate the single figure in
Poser, but that kept crashing due to root congestion in 'Hierarchy'. Analogy would be over-loading the root of your C: drive instead of organising content into folders...
Then I thought to 'parent' the figure's five sub-rigs to a place-holder box, duplicate that and them. Yay !! With 'root' congestion thus averted, I only needed minutes to build scene. Also, as 'duplicated' rather than independently imported, each references the *same* mesh and texture map, significantly reducing system needs.
There's one odd gotcha : parenting those sub-rigs to that first box may reverse their sequence. So, now gotta pose using the *last* sub-rig. Same names, just their sequence reversed. Easy to spot as eg 'lClavicle' of correct sub-rig had inherited the dozen degrees' pose of original...
Wide-screen, 128 pixel-samples Superfly progressive render sent to networked 'Box' ran while I had that nap then some ham rolls...
