Dear Carraraists,

3drendero reports that there is a new plugin available by Fenric that will help you import and handle new Poser figures in Carrara 8!

Here is what 3drendero says:

One of the best Carrara plugin developers, Fenric, has just released a
new free Carrara plugin called Poser Weightmap Injector.

“This is a pair of utilities to facilitate importing weight-mapped
Poser figures into Carrara.
This is a multi-step process, and is not guaranteed to work for every figure.
Instructions are included in the ZIP file.”

Download from: http://fenric.com/wordpress/store/products/poser-weightmap-injector/
Requirements: Weightmapped Poser figure like Miki4 or TylerGND, Poser
Pro 2012 SR2 and Carrara 8 (unknown if earlier Carrara versions are
supported)
Some useful tips from Fenric and renders from Orion_Uk are available
in this thread at Daz3D, especially for the new Miki4 and TylerGND
figures:
