Renamed parts when merging

When I split a model into parts and rename all parts, and later collapse again by merge, the parts get different names (which I see when e.g. opening the object in Poseray). Is there a way to keep the names of those parts? Or better still, export the merged object such that the parts are actually listed as materials (like in Poseray)?
My workflow is such that I modify objects in ZBrush, but then have to open again in Poseray to rename, and export, so it will import well in Terragen.

Thanks for any advice.

Can you use the FBX format? The FBX plugin will include all subtools in a single file, with materials named after the subtools.

Thanks, Marcus. I’ll try that.
