Convert Poser Hair or SSTV files (HRZ) online for free
The converter easily converts your HRZ Poser files to various formats - free and online. No Poser or or other 3D software needed.
The converter also works in reverse, so you can convert other "Compressed 3D Hair File" formats to HRZ without using software like Poser or a similar tool.
An .HRZ file primarily functions as a Compressed Poser Hair File for the 3D character modeling software Poser. It stores compressed 3D geometry, material properties, and styling data for digital hair. Alternatively, it can be a Slow-Scan Television (SSTV) Image generated by amateur radio software to encode pictures via audio frequencies.
Poser files are natively opened with Poser by Bondware. SSTV images are decoded by specialized ham radio tools like MMSSTV.
The .HRZ format presents significant challenges due to its highly specialized nature. For 3D designers, the proprietary format locks you into the Poser ecosystem. These files cannot be natively imported into mainstream 3D editors like Blender or Autodesk Maya without extraction. For radio operators, SSTV files contain obscure binary or raw data that standard image viewers cannot display, making sharing difficult.
To break out of these software limits, conversion is necessary. For Poser hair files, decompressing them to uncompressed HR2 files is the first step, followed by conversion to standard OBJ or FBX files for universal 3D editing. If your file is an SSTV image, convert it to a PNG or JPG for web viewing and easy archiving. Drag and drop your file to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software.
Use Convert.Guru to open and convert your HRZ file.
If you want to convert HRZ file to OBJ, FBX, DAE, 3DS, MAX, BLEND, MA, MB, C4D, STL or PLY, you can use Poser or similar software from the "3D Hair Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DWG, DAE, X3D, IGES, WRL, JT, SKP, 3DS, 3DM, OBJ, STEP or FBX files to HRZ, try Poser or another comparable tool in the "3D Hair Data Storage" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our HRZ converter.
