i want talk about tutorials and another thinghs (this is a question i have to do) tutorials someone of u know mr ThorneWorks? he make a real amazing tutorial concernig creatig poser figures from zero to a really eheheh great teddy bear is a tutorial in 3 parts step by step u create that bear with mr ThorneWorks he cut off all the hardness of sharing tecniques in a simple way starting from the concept that who read that tutorial could know nothing (like me about joints placements and other things)and he explain in a really simple way the firs steps for a poser figure makers ( i'm starting myself creation of simple puppets using s patch i hope soon to could show what i'm triyng to create to u all), watching the tuts in tuts folder here i see 1 sigh there's few new tuts 2 a large number of tuts is a bit harder i know and i thanks all of the people that make tuts is hard teaching for example joints (but i never see a tuts that explain it) or making conforming clothes (nerd and phil c make tuts for that are a bit harder for me sorry i'm an iron head i need a tuts good for a 3 years old baby in order to understand) now the 1 question why the older users or the most "blasonate user" don't make a group of tutorials from "zero to ace" series, that start alwais from the same model (we could take the man or woman p4 caracter and alwais the same dress for all the lession about creating clothes) that start from creating a new figures, joint correctly that, morphing, posing, lights, creating dress,make a dress conforming, texturing correctly, animating, crating details modify the meshes, using related application (like poser extractor/loader for example) and so on a sort of manual for dummies step by step i know all of u have better things to do, but i think teaching to other people and newbie could be a real challenge for people that know the 99% of poser like his hands,for modelling, why don't make tuts for free modellers? i know that most of them are below commercial appz but free modellers are at the hand of all of us, professional not. second question i have a friend that works for a graphics studio (he don't have time to teach me but when he have times i could "play" with his applications if he work on another pc) he have deep paint 3d and i see there's as a gift the zygote gremlin in 3ds format. is that model free? could i use it or is illegal? if is free could i ask to someone here to send me the rsr and cr for that model ( i could translate the model inside poser from 3ds format to obj and divide it into parts inside poser) thansk for attention oh i'm italian there's someone here that speak my language?

I have some basic tutorials at :http://jupiter.spaceports.com/~omnitut/poser/index.html I am not sure if these will help you or not. I do plan on doing other basic tutorials as time allows me. I will definately take your suggestions for tutorials and use them if you don't mind. i am not sure about the gremlin model because I don't have deep paint.. Sorry.. Stormrage

Nifft, there was a List Serve eGgroup formed recently to address this and similar issues regarding a massive online tutorial project. You can join the list and see what they are doing at: http://www.egroups.com/group/PoserDM

Definately try PoserDM who are creating a massive online manual which might be of help. There is another Poser group you can join which might help you too, this is PoserTECH which is aimed at the more technical side of things. Unfortunately, we cannot send you the CR2 and RSR for the Zygote Gremlin. This is not a free item and so would be illegal. You can purchase the Gremlin from Zygote directly. Paul
