I've been using Poser 9 for awhile and I want to start using Daz Studio 4.9 because of the greater range of content available from the store. Is there a way I can still use my old Poser files and scenes in Daz Studio? How do I set up Daz Studio to be able to read and find the directories from Poser?

    In DS, go to Edit > Preferences > Content Library > Content Directory Manager, expand the "Poser Formats" section, and add the path to the folder containing the "Runtime" folder.

    Thank you. That doesn't seem to allow me to open up Poser scenes as they're all still grayed out when I go to "File>Open"

    You can't open the Poser scenes, but you can load Poser figures, props, hair, etc.

    Poser content is not opened, it is imported - File>Import. This is because it has to be converted, and can't simply be resaved to the same format.

    Actually, the PZ3s have been load-able since DS's beta versions (pre- DS1).  As far as I can tell, DS has been using ("importing") Poser content (except Poser shaders and dynamics) all along.

    Thanks all. I'll try to play around with things and let you know if I hit any more roadblocks. Appreciate the input!
