"I call BS, and the evidence is as close as the nearest Omnaris (nasal spray) commercial in the US. In it, you get to see Poser's James figure and his clones, bigger than life and carrying a (to them) ginormous bottle of nasal spray, marching right into some actor's nose with it.
You can also find evidence in the nearest airline ticket kiosk, grocery store checkout kiosk, and etc.
Just because you don't see it in a eye-searing 3D blockbuster film (blech) doesn't mean that such figures don't get used."
Your point being what exactly??
So you, like nearly all of us, have witnessed a "poser sighting" on TV.. so what
I never said those figures dont get used professional capacity for simple animation projects
Go HERE
and you will see me listed at the bottum as
"animator" in this well funded indie film project and yes I used P6 and SM "koji" for the 30 second Skateboarding video game sequence
in the film.
Does my freelance work and your little "poser sightings" translate into an actual need for
"a plugin that will give Maya users a fully functioning DAZ genesis in Maya"?? ... NO
What would be the point?
as I explained to Dan Farr
the Maya user will need it rigged for Maya
not "hosted" from Daz studio.
Who using MAYA will buy a Daz plugin
Import genesis and re-rig with a proper human IK/FK skeleton it to use Vicky or "anubus" in Maya
the same for MAX Houdini etc.
this plugin Like their game dev kit for V-chick
is DOA in the pro pipelines they appear to be approaching.
Cheers
