You can install them manually by going into your SM download manager directory (in Downloads on windows) and find the .exe installers. You only need to install the nude figures. None of the other content installers have updates in them.

thanks...that worked great :)

a

Pickles .. yes that would be good. The dude can be Pretzels or Peter ...

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

AHA ... so there ..her name will be Piper and him will be Peter ...

Eve just seems way too overused. Wasn't there a short lived figure named Eve already?

11.1 update ... the thing about animation being able to follow a path .. doesn't Poser do that already since several versions back? I dont do animations much, but I remember drawing a path and the character followed it ... animated as it went..walking, running, or whatever ...

Not just Paul & Pauline apparently, it's Poser 11.1, coming later this month. http://my.smithmicro.com/poser-11.1.html

Question now is can I scrounge up enough cash for an upgrade to the Pro version while it's still on offer at $49 US? I've been a (mostly) good little Byrdie, dear Santa, and besides it's my birthday in another 11 days.

wow..i missed that Poser Pro 11 for $49 .... wow .. as much as I'm broke I should grab it while its hot.... thats the lowest I've ever seen the pro upgrade. Whats interesting, they.re selling Poser 11 for $49 as well ...

Jessi?

no ..

this is easy ..

I need to backtrack a bit , been on vacation, but hey, all is well here

The main deal is that we still have Poser. No matter where it goes, or not, we still have it. I think the overall usefulness of it has only been surface so far. There seemed to be more people that were really into getting to the meat of the program, figuring out a lot of python stuff, great scripts, etc... but I don;t see many of them talking much anymore. Perhaps many moved on, but that leaves current folks to dig deeper.

Even Bryce is still kicking, and its been not touched in quite some time.

Back to DAZ and content .. is it not possible to export DAZ content, even the newest, as an obj ? i think some of the textures go whacky, but is that not possible?

Phil Cook had a bunch of great simple Python apps to design clothing, hair, and a bunch of stuff.

Being here from Poser1, I see myself as "an old timer". Yes, I'v seen it all come and go.

From the WHAW, what is this???? To the initial free stuff overflow, to the hobby 3D artists, to where we "unfortunately" are fighting now.

Poser is , and always will be a GREAT app. Digital content does not age. It's only shortcomings where the default figures.

The market took over with better figures, and everybody wants to be in bed with, and follows the hottest chick blindfolded.

let's be honest: Good art, while very difficult to make, does not sell itself. At most, it can make it's creator proud.

Sex sells. => Hence that's why most "hot items" are rather slutty items. LOL.

LOL ... I sort of glaze over most of the "slutwear" anymore. One of the items I always wanted were real life clothing. worn, battered, torn, dirty, and even the clean stuff. Shirts, jeans, etc. There are tons of tight, short, cleavage revealing, lingerie to last for 500 years :) But it obviously sells.

In reality, I doubt any program would ever go totally obsolete as long as users were getting out of it what they wanted. It would be possible to still use PSP v1 if it would run on current systems, for instance, and back then, a lot of folks were putting out some fabulous art. ALL of the programs have limitations, and all of them have work arounds.

Its all in each individuals creativity and how much they want to learn. The tools are in our hands. We just need to use them.

MODELING FOR POSER: There are tons of modelers. SILO A new version just came out recently 2.4 beta, so its still in the loop. Hexagon ..way cheap at DAZ, as well as Carrara @ DAZ which during a sale I pcked up for $3. Free Blender ... etc etc ..plus a ton of high end programs.

I find new Poser users every once in awhile, and I'm not sure where this comes from, probably lack of imitative somewhat of the new user, but they have no idea there are secondary market items for Poser at all. I point them here, and to my friends store now closed. I rarely visit the poser form at SM, but it seemed to be kicking up pretty good at the beginning.

Also I think it somewhat important to remember that Poser was originally to be used as a pose-able computer dummy, just like those wood ones you can pose. I had P1 but cant even remember if it had clothes ... I think it did, but even then, there was much more 2D work being applied than actually rendering completed scenes.

That is a huge tool if you can learn to do it, and there are many many 2d brushes, etc to assist. Materials, and so forth. I remember using some of the hjair brushes way back. Awesomeness :)

Back to the market..the market, or Poser dedicated stores, has shrunk a lot over the years as well. For a bit there were a ton of them, but slowly DAZ ate into the market.

Question: is it not possible, even with G3 and below figures to set them up in DS and then export as OBJ, import into Poser? I would think pretty much all the stuff, including Stonemason's great products. Or not? If so, that in itself opens up a lot of possibilities.
