Alright, this is probably going to be a rather long winded post...
@ MarianneR... I've had svdl's python script for a while (actually I have most of his scripts), in the readme it states "IMPORTANT NOTICE: The INJ morph files generated by this script MAY NOT BE DISTRIBUTED if they are generated, in whole or in part, from the copyrighted DAZ morphs!"
I have SnarlyGribbly's SceneFixer script, which also allows you to create INJ files... but does not have any documentation on the legality of said generated files.
I have Shaderworks Advanced INJ Builder... which has documentation out the wazoo... Just need to look a little more closely at it and do some experimenting.
I'm going to purchase Daz's INJection Pose Builder 1.5 (next paycheck) also... I figure with the Shaderworks and Daz utilities I should be able to create some legal files for distribution. If not? Well then, apparently Mac users simply are not ABLE to create INJ files like windows users. Sigh. Unless I learn some serious poser file hacking skills, that is.
You know I've been trying to solve this riddle for a while... there are no concise tutorials on the subject. Believe me, I've read a MILLION tutorials. I've also read
the Poser Reference Manual several times, I've read the Poser Tutorial Manual several times, I've read Secrets of Figure Creation with Poser 5, I've read Poser 7 revealed, Poser 8 revealed, and Practical Poser 7... Stuff by rbtwhiz, lesbently, Ajax, PhilC etc..etc.. Adnauseum.
I can rig a semi decent figure, I can throw together a shader (but that's relative), I can render all kinds of ways, (ok, so I need some practice in the cloth room... Thanks ArtBee!), I'm more skilled at modeling than any of those other things. You know what I can't do? Make a legal INJ file. go figure.
While I appreciate the little bit of help I've gotten on this subject here on the forum, I'm still at Square one. Here's hoping I can finally lay this one to rest.
Thanks.
