Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 23 7:38 pm)
If you looked at what Poser uses, the cr2, hr2, etc files all refer to some OBJ file. This is a virtual 3d file, which Poser can, given the right setup, "animate".

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)
I never used it. But what you asked about doing is done with Anime Studio, efficient or not, and is not at all done with Poser.

As others have said this in not what Poser is meant for, and you would probably be better of with different software. That said, there is no reason I can see to stop you making paper doll type figures, and animating them in Poser. The figures could be constructed from rectangles, and use transparency maps for the outlines.
Making even a "paper doll" type figure would be a quite advanced project for a beginner, but not beyond the bounds of possibility.
I call this figure "M5" (short for "Man 5"). Now DAZ will have to find a new name for their next male figure, or I'll be talking to my lawyers!
I was thinking about about the "paper doll" animation idea, and decided to make a two dimensional Poser figure to see how it worked out. It's a very simple figure made almost entirely out of squares. I didn't even get round to making joints for the elbows and knees, but I learnt a little bit (mostly what NOT to do), and had a bit of a laugh.
Cool,Les! I was going to suggest using squares with 2D images applied as a solution but ultimately, you probably would be better served with Anime Studio for 2D anims. Anime Studio Pro 8 can import Poser Scenes also, I don't recall if Debut does - I only ever work in Pro for creating the content files. In terms of animating a character, the principles are the same - create your character , create bones for it, adjust affected areas, and animate using keyframes.
"Anime Studio Pro 8 can import Poser Scenes also,"
yes but only very simple ones( no MIC/VIC4!!!) or it Chokes into a coma
,on my machine at least,
best to use the native AS figures or buy some of the really Cool ones from CP.
Cheers

if that isnt possible, then how would i convert a 2d image into a 3d object or prop for Poser 8?
and if THAT isnt possible, then what are alternative programs can i use along with Poser 8 that can animate 2d things with 3d things? and i still want to have some way of using Poser though.
