I would also like to know about compatibility in general for products like these as it's a little misleading.
The top right lists:
Which implies that the it's compatible with Poser. It is the DSON files that make the Genesis series work with Poser isn't it or have I got that wrong?
This isn't the only product that doesn't list Poser in the 'Compatible Software' section yet it includes a DSON Core installer in the Notes section.
"DSON core" files are actually the .duf files for DAZ Studio. The files that make it compatible with Poser are "Poser Companion Files" or ".pz2 or .mc6 materials."
This is an example of a product that has Poser materials: http://www.daz3d.com/alani-for-callie-6
Adrienne does not come with Poser materials.
Wasn't the DSON import supposed to make things compatible?
...but wouldn't ALL products com with a DSON Core?

Yes, all products do, basically (except those that are Poser-only, or are .objs, etc.). You can see this looking at items in the store.
I don't know why they chose to call the importer and the base file type the same thing. It is confusing to me, too.
DSON core file Main DS file
Poser core file Main Poser file
DS CF file, for a Poser core file, so it will work in DS
Poser CF file, for a DS(ON) core file so it can be imported to Poser, using the DSON importer
there are no poser based files included with LYFW Adrienne.
Thanks for the info:)
Simple way to remember: DSON -- Daz Studio ONly. Whenever you see anything just marked DSON it only works in Studio 4.5 & up. But If Poser Companion Files are listed with it, then you can use it in Poser (versions 9 & up only!) with the DSON Importer. And if it also has a Poser Core Installer, then it works in Poser without all the hassle. Otherwise, forget it.
DS uses DSON files (daz scene object notation), and the importer imports DSON files for use in Poser, hence DSON Importer.
Some stuff will work with D3D's free DSON Loader script. DX30's shoes work well, as an example, with some tweaking to the materials:

You can also make Poser CFs in Studio, but they won't work any better than the above script.
If it's something you really, really, REALLY want and/or the price is right, you can give it a try; at worst you can ask for a refund. However, most of the other characters by the artists that created this DO have Poser CFs, so there may be a reason why.....
WandW: Thanks for the link.:-) That Python script worked wonderfully in Poser Pro 2014 even though it was made for an earlier version. I was able to convert older clothing items made for the first Genesis figure then load it into Poser.
I just recently started using the DSON CF installer for Poser and it has been great to be able to buy new items not made for Poser. However, not all models come with the Poser CF files. The D3D script worked on the old "Short Order Cook" model which doesn't work well if just exported to a CR2 within DAZ Studio. When fitted within Poser, it blows up into a huge mass of something. Using the D3D script, it conforms normally. It does show an error about PMD files which I just ignore.
