Subject: The Best Vehicle Models for Poser


Basis3D ( ) posted Thu, 21 October 2010 at 10:55 AM · edited Fri, 08 November 2024 at 8:02 PM

I'm looking to populate my Poser scenes with some great looking vehicles, on-road and off-road. Would prefer to get them mainly from a single vendor so that they all look great together when I'm using multiple vehicles in a single scene.

Looking for suggestions for a vendor.

Thank you,
Dkal

I would suggest cars by Dreamscapre Creations over at DAZ plus Uzilites Lounge Mobile which is @ DAZ now too.

The new vanishing point models are incredibly well made. If you want freebies sharecg is highly recommended.

Here are some free ones that are just as good as commercial models:

Most are in LWO format. You can use PoseRay to convert them to Wavefront format usable by Poser.

good luck,

The 30 day demo of sketch up pro can also export sketchup models to OBJ as well.

Another way is use the free version of sketchup, export to Collada and then use a free autodesk .dae to .obj conversion app. The results are not always that great, the rotation angle is usually out, but it is possible to fix some of them in Uvmapper.

Thanks, Acadia!

What a cool site and one I never heard of before. I speak and read just a little Japanese but I have a friend who is fluent in Japanese and will help to guide me through that site.

Also great suggestions from benney, mattymanx, mrsparky, flyrerx and Tucan-tiki. I'm been checking them all out too.

Tucan-tiki ... still checking on that converter that you mentioned. Searched but didn't find it yet. Do you have a direct link maybe?

Thanks all!

dkal,

Sometimes some of the models converted from other programs are more trouble than they are worth.

A model like this, for example:

http://www.ontarget3d.com/site/Products/962-shelby-cobra-for-poser.aspx

or this:

http://www.ontarget3d.com/site/Products/960-gt-409-sports-car-for-poser.aspx

is already rigged, scaled, grouped, mapped and textured for Poser.

It is sometimes easier to just pay the $10 for a car that someone has spent a week Poserizing than to spend your time doing it.

Some Poser vehicle models are quite advanced, with ERC rigging, MAT files or materials, add-on props, simplified controls, etc, that are mostly not available for models that you convert from other software formats.

That is not to say that you shouldn't spend time learning how to do the conversions, and making your own models, it is up to you to decide if you want to spend your time converting and fixing models, or making images or animations.

You can translate the site in Google.

The honda models are in many separate parts. If you get the Lightwave versions, PoseRay is a great help. Select all the parts and load them at once and they will come in properly assembled.
