Quote - Care to enlighten us poor souls? Likewise the way to get at Python? Pretty please.
Poser Debut is shipped with Python but the faciliy to run scripts has been removed from the UI. However, scripts can also be run from a .pz2 pose file and that still works!
Many Python scripts can be made to work just by crafting a .pz2 file to launch them. So long as the Python scripts don't reference missing UI elements (such as trying to attach themselves to the non-existant Python scripts palette) they will work.
For the IDL demo I 'borrowed' D3D's 'Render Firefly' script from my copy of Poser Pro 2010 and launched it in Poser Debut via a .pz2 file, as described above. Not only did the script run fine, but it gave me access to all the rendering options that SM had removed from the Poser Debut UI.
Of course, if the only version of Poser you have is Debut then you won't be able to use D3D's script, but it's quite easy to write a Python script to switch on and configure IDL (and tonemapping) so if there was a demand for it I'm sure someone would write one - it's only a few lines of code.
