Research direction

Reproduce the Poser Collada export import with OpenCOLLADA in Maya 2015 x64, following the listed plugin-loading steps. Inspect Maya's Script Editor for the reported errors and compare the same DAE import in Maya 2013, where the error is not reported. Done means the figure imports without the premature data-loss error while retaining its rig, textures, and animation.
