Marie - Yes that's an issue. If you use objaction mover and distribute the obj that way but use the base figure as the key then its not theft since the other person has to have the original base obj as the key. If you just pack up the obj and send it out then it is theft. The thing about cr2s is you could "steal" a character obj anyway. All it would take is for you use the group tool, group the whole figure, add them to a group then save the cr2. The cr2 would then contain the entire obj data. I don't know what CL's plans are for distribution or how they intend to handle people making custom figures and selling them on EBay. I beleive the reason Pro Pack makes the new obj file is to support 3d max and lightwave better. Having geometry embedded in the cr2 is impossible for 3d max or light wave to interpret since cr2 files are not industry standards. Melanie - Python is a script language used by professionals in the computer industry for the last decade or so. The key thing about python is it is portable because its a script. Each line is interpretted by Poser. It allows the same code to be run on a MAC or PC or whatever system supports Python. Its not as fast as a compiled language (the languaged used to code Poser itself for example) but for smaller tasks it works well. The big thing is Python already has a huge support group and industry scripts written. What Pro Pack has done is added functions into Python so you can accesses information about the scene, cameras, lights, figures etc.. This allows us to make utilities to modify pose for our own uses. For example, Python would allow us to make a much more detailed and elaborate material editor than the one in Poser. PhilC wrote a nice script that just sets all the materials in a figure to color white, ambient black and hilight black in one click.
