I have no problems with Carnegie Mellon BVH files in Poser. They load fine! You just have to adjust them as far as the speed is concerned, and maybe tweak the characters movements a bit where they need it. Of course, programs like Phili's "BVH helper" and "BVH constraints" help a lot.

Very interesting information about displacement mapping, Vilters. I'm not a modeler. But can you show us low-poly dynamic cloth with some folds and wrinkles that were processed with Poser's cloth room? I'd lke to see how low-poly wrinkles come out with your method.

Quote - For movies? ? ? Stay Low Poly.It is the only real "speed improver."

It makes sense using low-poly cloth is going to improve the speed, but isn't it also going to defeat the very purpose of the cloth room? To make natural folds in the cloth, you need a fairly high-poly mesh; otherwise, the cloth will just remain rigid.

Great tips, guys. I feel that this BVH constraints script might be useful.

I think you can create in Poser using other people's products. Consider Hollywood's film director: he uses myriads of people and products: set decorators, dress designers, lighting cameramen, sound designers, etc, etc... and nobody ever says that Spielberg, or Kubrick, is not creative. It is the way those props and people are used that makes the difference.
