Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Sep 18 2:50 am)

We now have a ProPack Section in the Poser FreeStuff.
Check out the new Poser Python Wish List thread. If you have an idea for a script, jot it down and maybe someone can write it. If you're looking to write a script, check out this thread for useful suggestions.

Also, check out the official Python site for interpreters, sample code, applications, cool links and debuggers. This is THE central site for Python.

You can now attach text files to your posts to pass around scripts. Just attach the script as a txt file like you would a jpg or gif. Since the forum will use a random name for the file in the link, you should give instructions on what the file name should be and where to install it. Its a good idea to usually put that info right in the script file as well.

Subject: Automating "Cancel" on finding missing resources

I'm trying to automate rendering a handful of Poser files but have run into a problem... A few of the files have missing resources and the automation stops the rendering process, prompting the user to find the missing resource. Is there anyway in PoserPython to automatically Cancel these prompts or set "Don't continue to look for missing resources?" (Yeah, I know the right answer is to fix the files... :) ) Thanks in advance. -Steve

Nope; you're going to have to fix the refs (or just delete them).

Yeah, that's what I thought. There's only a few, but when batch rendering it was a pain. Thanks for the reply! Incidently, I wrote a batch renderer script because I didn't see anything like it (not counting batchgen)--that is, a script to recurse through a directory structure rendering samples for each Poser file found. I've found that I don't always save WIP under a suitable name or in a suitable location and often forget about projects I was playing with. The script helped me remember what that "untitled1.pz3" file (and the like) contained. :) Does such a script (batch rendering, again not as complex/full-blown as batchgen) exist and I just missed it, or would making my script available be of use to others? -Steve

I would love to have your batch rendering script. Please make it available. If you want to post it on my new python script repository, I would be honored. ===Underdog===

Sorry, I've been tied up with other stuff. I'll finish the script and get it uploaded ASAP. -Steve

Simple thumbnail generation script. Renders all Poser files in a given dir (and subdirs). Uploaded to Underdog's script repository (see link). If someone is inclined to show me how to properly work with TKInter, I'll add an appropriate front-end for the script. (Can't quite get the hang of creation/destruction.) Enjoy. -Steve

Thanks for the upload, Steve!
