Exporting OBJ with group names.

edited December 1969 in Carrara Discussion

First off I'm using Carrara 8 pro.

I have some figures in FBX format that I would like to rig in Poser. I can import them into Carrara and their rigging is preserved. Sadly Poser can't import FBX and the dae import doesn't bring in the rigging.

What I was hoping to do is in Carrara I renamed the bones to correspond to the bones of a donor figure for use in poser. But when I export the figure from Carrara as an OBJ file the bone names are not applied to the mesh. Is there a way in Carrara to apply the bone names to the parts of the mesh that correspond to the bone?

    If I recall, you can name polys in the vertex modeler, but I haven't done it myself. Perhaps that would show up in Poser?

    Right now it seems to be grouping in Carrara or Poser. Since I'm more comfortable using Poser that's what I'm working on.
