Before you laugh, remember I am NOT an Artist...
Well, I got VERY angry with the prop I was making, turned my attention to a puzzle from the Animotions' freebies: Why don't their long gloves fit Posette ??
After blundering around with Carrara, Poser_4, 3DOC (for sanity checks), MorphManager, Anthony Appleyards's mega-quirky MAKEOBJ and two ring-binders of down-loaded tuts, I've made progress.
Start from the geometries' OBJ. Disable all Carrara's auto-offsets & scaling, and have it auto-group the materials' facets. Delete one less body-part along the chain, so leave in 'shoulder-blade' to make upper arm work. Select 'body' to export as set. Weld close vertices thrice in MAKEOBJ, until they're all connected. Then auto-move all selected faces out by.002 etc. Point a de-morphed 'stripped' CR2 per Bloodsong, and I have a conforming glove except for pokey pinkies...
Now I can actually get an OBJ out of Poser, back in and still have it conform, I'd better learn how to push those vertices about !!
