Vue F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 30 8:14 pm)
After simulation you can export the dynamic cloth as wavefront object or as morph target. Load the object back in Poser and save the scene as PZ3 file. Now you can load the PZ3 in Vue4. Mover4 can not import dynamic cloth simulation as Animation. Maybe Mover5 can do it (I hope) Mazak
Kirwyn; WOW! And Details! Details! Have you tried to see if the wind generated deformations will tranfer over as well? And a quicky definition of 'properly configured obj file' so I know what to look for. Even if this only works for a percentage of items, that really opens up the animation effects window...
Excellent! Now I understand the object must be stored in the geometries subfolder. Poser5 SR3 saves dynamic simulation as *dyn files extra. Like this way NameOfPz3_Sim_1_NameOfObject_1.dyn. Mazak

Here can you find the original Poser animation ;-) http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?Form.ShowMessage=1545655 MazakJust to clarify after trying this out...
Using VuePro (I'm using it with the latest Beta Patch applied), it appears all I had to do was clothify an object (I used the HiRes Square primitive) over your object (I used Victoria 3)...and calculate.
Then I saved my .pz3 file (I checked the directory I saved to and sure enough, there was a .dyn file created also).
Then I started Vue Pro and imported the Pz3 file and woot! The dynamics of the cloth came over.
I never had to export anything as a WaveObj File.
Very cool indeed :)

What you need to do is rename the entire folder that Poser resides in. What Vue looks for is that folder, and assumes that since you directed it there, the Poser executable is -in- that folder, along with the runtime. Once you do that, fire up Vue and it should ask, then you can direct it to your P5 install, then return the P4 folder to the name it had and all is well. Well, tried to roll back the update. It said the backup was corrupt, and couldn't undo the update, but when it fired up, the splash screen had the previous beta build number on it. That one imported the Judy and dynamic dress just fine...minus the dress. Re-ran the latest beta patch and it went back to throwing the unable to read PZ3 error. Think I'm gonna stick to 4.2 to experiement with for the moment. And to get some serious usage experience out of the cloth room in Poser. Hopefully there will be a finalized patch out soon, and that will take care of things. I haven't had to reinstall VuePro -yet-, and I'd like to keep it that way....
Good question, lots of possible answers... Mega-SIGH....Well, the latest beta works with P5 now...but it doesn't seem to work well with the eternal Poser Texture Pathing issue. And the betaCows for this build have been turning out nothing but black frames the last 3 renders I've attempted. One encoded with DivX 5.1, and one as single frame uncompressed jpg's. -But- the animations do render in VuePro alone (this was a test of the dynamic cloth, btw. Which should have had no effect on visibility). And the little buggers haven't thrown a single error code at me. They are behaving wonderfully...minus the black output, of course..... :

I have read that Poser 5 cloth simulations will not import into Vue 4, and yet I am able to import most cloth simulations. I say most because not all would import at first but I finally figured out the process to make those import also. I'm just wondering how many people know about this. I thought about making a tutorial to show the process of importing the cloth simulation that does not normally import. Would there be any interest?
