Subject: change view of prop permanently?


drawn ( ) posted Tue, 27 February 2024 at 12:23 PM · edited Sun, 22 December 2024 at 2:49 AM

I opened prop themall, huge, I got it positioned... so it shows most of what promo pic looks like, I want it to stay that way so if I open the prop again I want it the same each time, can then vary it as I please???

how can I do this? Manual doesn't really help...

Your best bet is to save the camera settings back to the Poser Library for this particular prop.  There are many scenes on the market with multiple camera angles already included.  You always have the option to create your own or add cameras to the existing scene.  All you need to do is load your scene and select the camera angle under the Cameras tab.  AFAIK, you can't save camera angles as part of a prop.

You can also save or export the scene as a.PZ3 file which will retain camera angles and everything else you add to the stage.

o never mind about that last comment. I fiddled with lites and found I can alter direction and that makes a big difference! thanks for all your help.

Glad you worked it out.  BTW, this is an old set created for Poser 7, so the shader materials may or may not render correctly in Superfly.  You should be fine with Firefly rendering if that is what you prefer.

Ah, good to know. I’ve been having difficulty with this giant prop. Do you know if any one is making a newer version. The giant scale is good for an overall shot but really moving around tonisalate views is like watching water boil

According to the documentation Readme, there is only one camera in the runtime folder.  However, if you are inclined, you can manually build each shop individually with the props under the Props category.  It is tedious but you can configure it and populate it your way.  For the most part, much of the major set will not be seen in one render anyway.

Thanks, but I settled on modular mall
