Exporting a scene with instances?

I think I have an understanding of how instances work and I'm pretty sure the answer is no--but is there a way to export a scene that uses instances so I can open it another 3D program?

    Yes you turn them to objects first. https://www.daz3d.com/instances-to-objects

    Nope, instancing in this form is DS proprietary. Instancing is very app specific in my experience. I have tried exporting to 3DSMax which has it's one version of instancing, as does Maya and Unity, but could never get it to work.

    actually if the other program is iClone you can duplicate stuff with a centered pivot and attach it to the instances in the dialogue tree checking transform and rotations and the duplicates will go to the right spots

    Thank you all! I had a hunch that was the case. In this situation it's Daz -> Cinema4D (which I am really enjoying at the moment)

    Agent Unawaress, I'll favorite that product. Looks like a solution.
