Attached Link: Created using P4 Nude Woman, with BodyStudio (Maya-Poser plugin), and Maya. No Photoshop

No photoshop work here! I've been having some fun with QA testing on the Maya plug-in for Poser (BodyStudio). This is a Poser figure, moving in maya with Maya Particles for the flames. The Poser setup, and import took about 10 minutes, amd then I played with the particle settings, for a few hours. The Render was done in hardware and took about 15 minutes for the 150 frames.

for the full animation in .avi format (indeo4.5) follow this link!

That's pretty kewl. Do you think you might tackle a Poser to Electric Image Universe (animator) plugin? I'm kinda getting into the affordable version 2.9 from DVGarage and enjoying the heck out of it. Most of the EIU plugin stuff only works on the current version requiring the inevitable upgrade and even then, they are primarily mac based and not PC. I'd love to bring a poser animation into EIU on the PC.

Gotta love those particle systems ....

While we're on the subject of flames, here's a pic of vicki with flaming hair. No Photoshop, straight EI Universe with the Konkeptoine fire plugin.

Kool Konkeptoine stuff, Tim!

Here's a shot from what I'm really waiting for. Maya 4.5 has fluid effects whcih seem to have some beautiful flames that finally have the potential to move correctly! check out this still and see the whole movie at the link

Thanks Jeff, I can't wait to show the results to the head of production.

ok, ok guys you are really making me impatient and torb with all this fire. Its either my funds or having to wait for developers to finish (ie Poser 5, maya plugin for poser for Mac) Sigh, lol I guess my Ghost Rider will just have to work with post work in PS for its fire. Thi is just a sneak of my Ghost Rider (generation 2) Leather is by Rdna (thanks guys, best I have seen so far) the skull Is of DAZ3D Conforming heads for Michael those that I have forgotten, I will get you on the next round Flame head is postwork in PS using EyeCandy

sorry guys I didn't mean to bump your thread or anything. i just got all teary eyed when I saw the beautiful fire and felt like sharing. keep up the great work

Josh,

Wow, I can see why you're anxious for Maya 4.5. Any possibility of creating a poser plugin for EI Universe for Mac?

Hi Director, where are you working? Hi Tim, I think a plugin for EI from my company would be a long time in coming. I've got the Maya plugin to develop and support, and we have other projecs mapped out after that. The next phase for me is to create a Mac version of BodyStudio! cheers, -Josh

Sorry Josh, Freudian slip called you by the name of the head of production. Im working out of Maryland on a pilot for RJS Productions. We met at the Curious Labs booth at Siggraph. (We've already touched base via email) The flame effects should be more than enough to convince the team to stick with Win2k Maya rather than Mac OS. Thanks ;)
