" other online sources" since my technique allows me to compile my motion files as .3DS max, Lightwave animated bones and BVH for poser i am considering
uploading a freebe over there to test the market.

any one here doing turbo squid??

thanks!!

I do, but till now I downloaded only free stuff. I don't need another shop to deplete my credit card. ;P

I put a few of my things there a few months ago but so far have sold nothing.

I reread your message. You mean selling stuff on turbosuid? Naa, where is the fun in that?

I visit Turbosquid occasionally to keep track of what's available, but haven't needed to buy anything yet.

$200 for a single .bvh file? Is this to recoup the money spent on the motion-capture harnesses or something? I notice they're all products of Biovision.

Credo has some .bvh files over at Turbosquid, also. They're much cheaper than Biovision's (although still pricey). I wonder if they were made with Life Forms.

If I ever get a .bvh export plugin for MilkShape, I'll be cranking out mocap files at an unbelievable rate. Especially if they're selling for prices like that. I can already bring Poser poses and animations into MilkShape, I just can't get them out again.

$200? Hah, chickenfeed! One company at Turbosquid is selling a Poser character, a POSER character mind, at $795.00 US !! To be fair there is some great stuff there, and pretty cheap too, but it has professional companies in there as well as individuals, hence the stupid prices of some stuff.

I was frankly flabbergasted by the prices of single BVH Files over there

I looked at some of the animation previews and some of the files like " tennis service" were pretty basic and could easily be keyframed by me Using Lifeforms.
and output for Poser, Max or lightwave
But there seems to be a total lack of skill / interest in character animation in the MAX and LIGHTWAVE forums at renderosity ... only modeling

So i will continue to create BVH for poser

Thanks!! for the responses
