...as there is no way to make the Vue-Topology visible in Poser. Sure, you could animate someone walking across a flat beach, but how should that same object be made to walk up a hill or walk around any thing that might come in it's way. Of course, with a lot of time and a lot of trial and error, this could be possible, but since poser does not support gravity or any kind of physics and Vue d'Esprit has nothing in this way either, the feature just lacks any usefulness. Imagine a Poser-Animation walking up a hill after tweaking the animation for two days - without changing its pace or motion-behaviour. Sounds like a good idea, but I do not think the programms are yet capable of handling this in any useful way. On the other hand I would just love to be proved wrong on these points. Maybe it would be possible to import an a-proxy representation of the Vue-Landscape into Poser as well as some funktion to change the kind of movement corresponding to the terrain. Joerg
