Check it out. I am still working on the Poser->Bryce animation conversion program. This is a quick animation that I put together. If you are not on the contact list, and you are interested in having a program to convert your Poser characters to Bryce (animated or still), email me at konan@spacemoose.com and give the subject heading "Poser2Bryce".

Wow! That's really amazing! Should be infinitely useful for the poser freaks out there :) -Paul

If I actually did animation i would be very annoyed about now since I can't use it but looks pretty sweet. Just for PC inyerface

thanx ghost....

The program is currently PC only. However, I may be convinced to do a MAC version if the demand was high enough. No promises though. Do any of you MAC guys use a PC emulator? If so, I may only have to tweak a few things to get it to run on the MAC under such an environment. Konan

Unfortunately I don't run under any emulators ... that is just me though

Konan: How EXACTLY does your program work? If it does what it appears to do, you have just delivered the Holy Grail to Poser/Bryce users who have been searching for an answer for years!! Currently I have an answer but it involves complex match-moves and compositing in After Effects. This would save MASSIVE amounts of time. IF this is what it appears to be I'm nominating you for the nobel-prize. ;-) Very exciting stuff! Any ETA on when it's coming out. Oh, and (not that I need ANY convincing) but thank you once again for making me soooo happy I'm a PC user ... add one more cool app to the long list of PC-only software. Take care, Tim

Konan, If I use your utility to move a Poser animation into Bryce, can I then do some more Bryce animations with Bryce primitives and still retain the Poser animations? In other words, say I put a guy from Poser into Bryce who looks like he is trying to catch a ball. Then I have a ball made in Bryce fly into his hand. Is this possible? For another example, could your dragon animation have animated clouds moving overhead as the dragon roars and flaps his wings? I hope this doesn't sound stupid, but other than the dragon's shadows, I didn't see any Bryce animation in your demo mpg.

konan ( ) posted Sat, 21 April 2001 at 11:58 PM

Hey seedpress, I didn't put too much thought in the animation. Indeed, the dragon is animated in the Bryce environment, so you can have anything else that you normally have animated in Bryce (skys, balls, materials, etc). I will post some better examples over the next few weeks. Hey Tim, I can't say exactly how the process works at this moment (secret). I can say that it is very easy to set up in Bryce (about a minute's worth of work). Konan

seedpress ( ) posted Sun, 22 April 2001 at 12:10 AM

Konan, Thanks for the quick answer. Now I'm really getting thrilled with the possibilities! Say, could you maybe just give us a HINT (no commitment) on how soon your utility might actually be for sale?

timoteo1 ( ) posted Sun, 22 April 2001 at 1:16 AM

Konan: Thanks for the quick replies, and thank you Seedpress for asking a very important question. This sounds totally exciting ... almost unbelievable. Thanks a lot ... I'm not going to be getting any sleep from now until (and surely after) its release. It's hard to say without using it, but if it does what you are saying this is MONUMENTAL. You should make a small mint off of the sales. GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED!!! -Tim

seedpress ( ) posted Sun, 22 April 2001 at 1:36 PM

Konan, Are you saying that your Dragon was NOT originally animated in Poser? Was the Dragon moved from Poser into Bryce; then, retaining it's "Poseabitlity," subsequently animated within Bryce--as it would have been within Poser? Or will we be able to animate within Poser, export animations to Bryce, and then animate not only new Bryce objects, but the imported Poser figure as well? I'm just trying to gett a feel for how and where the animations are being performed-or will be able to be preformed once your uitilty is complete.

Lookin' good, konan! Are you going to offer it at the same price as your other utilities for poser->max etc? If you really want to demonstrate how "easy" it is, set up another animation with camera movement, sky movement, and a morphing ground texture & post 'er up here for us to goggle at ;^)

konan ( ) posted Mon, 23 April 2001 at 12:59 PM

Hey Flicker, Same price range. Definately not over $100 US. Hey Seed, No, the dragon was animated in Poser, not Bryce. I'll post another animation that when I get some time. Konan

Here is the posting for an updated animation that features a moving camera, moving clouds and a few mountains in the background. Konan
