Hi, I"m thinking of getting this but will i be able to export my plants easily to poser?  The website at e-on is ambiguous.  They have a chart that suggests you can't but also a free exporter available.  On the link to info about plant factory artist it says you can export.

anyone have this version to let me know?  It's only on sale a couple more days.

Love esther

Downloaded and installed the TPF Explorer:

TPF Explorer does not open any of the TPF files that came with The Plant Factory, trying to open them results in "Sorry,the indicated file can not be loaded" after which TPF Explorer shuts down and has the be restarted for a new attempt. 

Created a tree , saved as .TPF , this one could be opened by TPF Explorer. The option to  export to Poser is available in TPF explorer. The Poser export creates an OBJ with MTL file, the textures are PNG and JPG (trunk). Since I don't have Poser installed at the moment I could not try the result in Poser.

Note: I have TPF Designer installed here.

You may want to ask this at the E-On forums to get a definite answer. As far as I understand, the Artist version is a cut down version for use with Vue only. You cannot create plants from scratch either, you always need a base plant that you alter. Before buying this, I really would make sure what you can and can't do it, before ending up with something you can't use at all. To me the Artist version of TPF is like Vue Pioneer..... a glorified demo of no real use.
