Subject: Collison Detection in Poser 7


Cybertenko ( ) posted Tue, 08 July 2008 at 1:31 PM · edited Fri, 02 August 2024 at 3:17 AM

Hallo to everybody. I can use some help how to correctly base models in poser 7 - meaning putting them on ground so they not floating no drowning in the ground. I am trying to  set collision detection on  on scene, ground, and both feet of model, but still  figure  hangs in the  air or diving in the ground. Is there some trick or python script for easy basing?

Press ctrl-D

this command seems a little bit unprecise for me since it sinks boots into ground.

It does? Then the figure you're using is messed up.

What Ctrl-D does is drop the item precisely so that the lowest part of it is exactly on the ground.

It has always worked for any prop or figure I've used it on. I use it all the time. I drag something to a new position and drop it.

OK, I will it try once more. Thanks for your help.

Ctl+D will always sink boots into the ground plane. It's a well known glitch. If you select the main figure (IE: Mike3,Vic3,etc) ANY footware will sink below the lowest part of that figure because the footware remains conformed to the main figure.

If you elevate the main figure and select the footware and go Ctl+D  the footware will fall to the floor, NOT the main figure.  There is no "Smart Drop" like in Vue in Poser where groups can be dropped like one figure.  I wish there was.

Ah - I guess that's true. I don't encounter that too often.

make sure you have ground shadows off (display ===> ground shadows

sometimes P7 makes things look like they are below ground when they aren't.

Also, with the outfit containing the boots, there is sometimes a foot pose for the model to make the boots sit correctly.  That might help.
