Quote -  We still need someone able to create a user-interface based on wxPxthon (P7 and up) or TkInter (Poser5/6).

The userinterface should collect parameters to a Python dictionary. Things like a "project name", path to write to, image-resolution, tone-mapping, gamma (for poser-versions without gamma feature), some parameters Lux has but Poser not, and so on. Also important: Seperate export possibilities (geometry only, material only, special light and special camera-settings). So the user-interface are actually at least 4: Global parameters, camera parameters, light parameters and material-parameters. 

And a big "Automatic" button.
And of course a start-button :)

Actually I was thinking of writing the UI in Flex, compiled as an AIR application. I have a Python application server (PASer) that runs in all versions of Poser. Using HTTP calls passing XML back and forth, it is trivial to write a Flex GUI that uses Python functions running inside Poser.

A Flex UI is nicer than a wx UI and a lot easier to build. And it runs on every platform.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
