I've imported Vic3's obj file into zBrush, made a few changes and exported the result. I then opened up Vic3's character(figure) into Poser, and ran this script (its referenced in the attached link). It ran OK for part of the way and then crashed with a traceback.

Here is the log that the python script spits out :

Importing C:Vic3.OBJ
The file was not found. Do you want to continue looking for missing files?
Spawning props
Turning off IK for Figure 1
Setting Figure 1 to zero morph/pose
Traceback (most recent call last):

poser.error: Figure has no actor by that name

Note : the error in line 2 "The file was not found. Do you want to continue looking for missing files?" is in reference to a bmp that it is looking for, and I cancel out of.

Any help appreciated.

thanks,
Andrew

I suspect that you don't have the right item selected when running the script.
It's possible the "File not found" error is causing Poser not to select what it would normally when loading a figure, so I'd track that down and fix it just to be sure it's not part of the problem.

I've updated the script with error handling in the case of non-matching names - the mismatch will be reported, but the script will continue.

Thanks, svdl.

I'm now not getting any errors, but on the other hand I'm not getting any results either. After running the script (with 'Body' selected), there is a dial set to 1.000 on the Body actor when I open up the new character. There are no dials on the other actors.

When I twiddle this dial, it is completely unresponsive. Also, nothing happens when I apply the INJ pose, i.e. there is still the single dial for the main 'Body' only, which is still unresponsive when I twiddle it.

FWIW, here is a dump of the log when I ran the script :

It would appear that the OBJ your getting out of Zbrush is grouped by material rather than by body part.
This probably happened when importing to or exporting from Zbrush, so check the options your using for these steps and see if you can work out the right ones to use.

It would most likely be the export from Poser - seeing as their doesnt appear to be any such export options from zBrush v3.

The attached image illustrates what options I normally choose. Does this give you any further clue?

thanks,
Andrew

That looks like the correct export options.
On the other hand, if you're going to create your morphs from the figure in zero pose, it's easier to work on a copy of the .OBJ file in Runtime:Geometries (that's what I usually do).

Yes that is what I did as well. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

Then it must be something in the ZBrush import or export. I don't have ZBrush, so I can't help you there.

Quote - I don't have ZBrush, so I can't help you there.

Ditto.

There have been several tutorials and threads recently about making Poser morphs in  Zbrush, so one of those may help.
One thing that may work is to save the original grouping and UVs using UVMapper (either version) and then using the saved UVS file to restore the correct grouping to your morphed OBJ.

I got the same results as mathman above.  It creates a new figure called the morph name, creates a new dial INJChannels->Community area, and creates a INJ in the pose area....

But none of that does anything.

Here are the settings I used, what about the no object selected at the bottom?  Is that right?

Not sure what the morph channel or the morph precision are getting me there...?
