Hi, Imfairly new to poser so dot laugh at my next quesion ok? lol I have managed to creeate an animation and so on with great success, but using one poser charachter yeh? What i want to know is when you import another character into the scene it places it in exactly the same place as the first so you cant see what your doing yes? How do you move INDIVIDUAL characters independently of each other so you can position them where you want in the scene. I realise this is something that is easy to do and if anyone could tell me how to i'd much appreciate it. Thanks again. P.S Does anyone know where i can get any animals with morphs and full phonemes for use with Lipsinc MiMic please? Cheers daz

for moving the body, what you want to do is, select the figure you want from the figure menu under the scene, and then choose body from the drop down menu beside it, after that use the x-trans, y-trans, or z-trans dials to the right of the scene to get your figure where it is needed. i can;t help you with the animal mimic thing though, i don't have it S

Select the character's "body" (big circle around the character - or from the drop menu) and use the x - y - z translation dials to move them. If you are intending to make poses for sale or free you need to turn off IK, select the hip and use XYZ to move them, then turn IK back on to pose them.

I don't know if they're listed here, but at one point I saw Mimic-able figures for the default poser4 animals... I didn't download them, but I think it was just the poser 4 animals that had phenome morphs added to them, I think it was at the PFO though, I'm not sure, you can check.

I believe it was a Poser animator (Borogrove?) who made a bunch of the Poser4 animals Mimic compatible by making some new morphs and naming some existing ones appropriately. Meant to try them, but haven't had time. Check www.poserforum.net

Thanks to Everyone who replied !! Appreciated :) Just a few more small ones for you guys :- Questor - What is IK please? (told you i was knew to this):) Cin - Whats "PFO"? Cheers! :O) Daz

Lots of info on IK in the Poser4 manual, check page 207 for IK and animation. The poserforum URL is for PFO.
