From CC 3.02, users are allowed to export characters from Poser, and bring them into CC via Transformer function.

Conversion Process 

Go to File > Export > FBX to export FBX file from Poser.
  1. Set the Export Range

    • Select "Multi frame export" 
    • Keep the Frame Range as default

  2. No need to change any settings in the Select Objects window

  3. Set up the Export Options
    • Load preset: choose Unity5
      https://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/f6c04f44-f80e-4bf2-b0df-0318.png

    • Uncheck the option "Bake transparency to diffuse texture alpha"
      https://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/7fe833c7-1927-46b9-927e-ed5e.png

  4. Click the OK button to export FBX file
  5. Import the FBX file by pressing the Transformer button in Character Creator
  6. Select the "BASIC" mode to start the conversion
    *Please note the "ADVANCED" mode won't work with characters exported from Poser because of the different texture saving structure.

  7. You can refer to Online Manual or Tutorial to continue the settings

Known Issues & Workaround

  1. You may find some objects became invisible after using Transformer, which is caused by Poser automatically setting the Opacity value to zero if there is texture in Opacity channel when exporting FBX.
    To solve this issue:
    Select the object, go to Material Setting on the Modify Panel, and adjust the Opacity value to 100.

  2. Importing clothes with invalid skin data will cause Character Creator to crash.
    There is no positive workaround at the moment. We will update the program to accommodate these kind of files in a future patch.

perfect update but I have a question, is it possible to work on the compatibility of the bones with the architecture of unreal engine 4? for example there are bones that are not
such as IK Foot root
Ik Hand root
also the main bone that would be Root
there are some arm bones that are not necessary for unreal

Thanks for the suggestions. We will certainly be looking at supporting other popular character types but nothing is confirmed as yet.

We are certainly looking at ways to improve compatibility in UE4. Can you explain more about the arm bones that are not necessary? Are you referring to the twist bones?
