Might I suggest that you content be geared to both male and female if you are creating poses.... Too many create for female but totally ignore male characters. For myself I only buy products that cater to males and look forward to seeing your offerings... Best of Luck

it should have read.... in the case of the classroom

I love how desperate some people seem to be in their need to hate Daz... I am not the only one who dumped Poser because Daz3d Studio is easier and there is lots of content available for it.... The sites that seem to have been for poser content seem to be shutting down while sites that sell Daz material seem to be growing.... I do not want to see Smith Micro go under as I believe that competition is good for everybody, but SM doesn't seem to be able to pull their act together..... Develop Poser for the professional and they can never sell enough copies to stay in business. 3d art is a hobby for most people, not a profession. Daz has geared itself to the hobbyist, SM doesn't seem to know what they are aiming for..... Now, before you attack me for my not glorifying Poser all I can say is don't waste your time.... What Smith Micro DOES speaks to loudly that I can't hear anything you are saying to object.....

so who could replace Poser as a competitor to Daz3d Studio????

While I use Daz and think the material available for it are fantastic, I do not want to see poser go out of business. That would make Daz3d Studio the only game in town fo rmost people and then they could do whatever they want and charge whatever they want... competition is good

Those figures are the actual models available in DAZStudio except that they are tinted one color. I believe someone released their tint colors at ShareCG for free. Red and blue are among the offered colors.

I searched all over ShareCG without any results locating the tint colors.... anyone have any suggestions???

For me Poser still lacks a lot when it comes to start up lighting and many of the models are being designed for Daz and not Poser... Poser can live in the Michael 4 and Victoria 4 past as long as they want but for me, I want and use the Genesis 8 models.

Out of curiosity, just what do you feel Poser has been left behind in?

Three major areas: Native base figures that look good enough to be widely embraced by

clothing & morph content creators And have uniform standards for content development for the base figures.

Sydney,Alison,Roxie Pauline, ( and their erstwhile male counter parts) Failed horribly to meet this standard.

This is not just my opinion this is what history has shown us. poser has been left behind in base figure appeal

A completely new Cloth fitting/rigging system for content vendors that allows you to model clothing for a base shape /import to poser click less than three times and you have a conformer that will Automatically follow the shapes of a figure when you change the morph dials.

Clothing content developers will never..ever return to poser or widely support exotic third party nonstandard rigs like "Project E" if rigging is any more difficult than Daz studio and IClone Character creator3

Poser is has been behind in content development and cloth rigging

Updated animation tools with a nonlinear motion clip recording system and a proper modern graph editor with cubic interpolation and readable dope sheet.

Poser has been left WAAAAYYY behind in Character animation

Have a look at this video from reallusion. No it is not free but neither is poser.

I was at the SM website not long ago and they said they are working on Poser 11.1.1 Supposedly an update? Here is what the forum post said: "Upcoming Releases The first maintenance release to 11.1 will be 11.1.1 - While I cannot tell you when it will be ready, it's the first thing on my mind in the morning when I arrive at the office. This version is a long time in coming, and has significant fixes and improvements over 11.1 - when we do release this version (hopefully, soon!) I will post the Release Notes here so you can get a feel for what's fixed and what's different."

In Daz I do it all the time.. I also parent the lights to the camera so as I move around I do not lose the lighting setup....

While I prefer Daz3D Studio I do not want to see Smith Micro (Poser) end since that will allow the Daz Company to do whatever they want. I worry a bit that SM has been very silent for quite a while.

What does BWH mean?

I tried that but the e-mail was returned as undeliverable. I tried their support page on their website and that seems to be down as well... Oh well... it looked like a great answer

I found a 32 page pdf on another site that teaches how to make and use billboards for daz studio. All I did was Google the phrase making billboards for daz studio pdf.

Sorry for the delay but I was away for the weekend. Thank you for the information about billboards. I will start learning to use them as they certainly sound like the answer I am looking for.....

Can you point me to any low resolution characters for sale? Is there a way to know if a character is hi rez or low rez?
