I've been using Rhiannon's texture "JoJo" from PoserPros.  It has been doing great for me.  And I think the Genesis texture from Daz3D is great also.  I have them both, but I mostly work with JoJo.  You can see a render I did of her at www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php.  You can get her at poserpros.daz3d.com/store/viewitem.php.  (I hope it's ok to reference the site here.  I apologize if that is not allowed.)

Hope you find what your looking for.  Keep in mind too that it's not JUST the texture that counts.  It has to be lighted properly to get the best renders.

Best of luck!

BagginsBill, Raven,

  Hello again.  I have another lighting question if you might have a minute to take a look?  You can find it here:

Thanks!

Is there any way to save my original file?  Jeez I hope so!  I did a test and unchecked that option and was able to reload the test file.  I wonder if I can convert the other file?

I have Poser 7 and V4.  I have created a scene with her, a chair and History Hair.  It renders great, edits fine and everything.  I saved it without a problem.  Now when I try to load it back in, Poser 7 crashes and pops back to the desktop.  I have one source file that uses V4 with the Genesis character and a couple of lights.  I can load that one.  But I also have the JoJo character from PoserPros and I've not been able to load files containing her.  Only Poser 7 installed.  Clean system build and clean P7 install.

I did come across a thread stating that one should uncheck "Use external binary morph targets" in the Misc tab of General Preferences.  Of course I didn't see this until AFTER I saved my files.  Don't know if that would have mattered or not.

Any ideas?

Nebula

pjz99,

  Thanks!

  If I place her and pose her.  Then I add the hair and it fits for V3 (a little low and small).  I then go and apply the V4 preset from 3Dream and the hair adjusts as desired.  No if I go and apply a new pose, the hair will reset to V3.  It follows the pose but is just offset.  It can be readjusted by applying the V4 preset.

 Now if I go and animate her head, it's as tho the hair is locked in place.  Her head moves around under the hair but the hair itself doesn't move.

  I've tried parenting it to the Body and the Head with not luck.  Inheirit selected or not makes no difference either.

  Any help would be much appricated!  Thanks for the reply!

Nebula

Raven,

  Yes, I went to the website you listed and downloaded there Female_Walk.bvh.  I imported it in on V3 and it gave the same error yours did, (no Chest reference).  But V3 seemed to walk just fine as well.  Would your Stances file be something you could legally send me?  I'd like to mess around with that one if it's possible.  I purchased V4 on Sunday and have worked with her a little bit.  So far she's been great.

  What kind of site is audiomotion?  They had a few bvh files available to download, mostly male motions.  But I didn't see any kind of packages you could purchase or anything.  Do you or anyone know where some good motion files can be had..... economically of course.  The walk cycle I downloaded was very smooth but a bit over the top.... kind of like a street walker or something, if you know what I mean.

  As always, thanks for the responses!!  GREAT STUFF!!!!

Nebula

Great!  Thanks!  Which character did you use?  V2, V3, what?  Did you have to tweak it to get it to work smoothlty or did it just work?

Thanks again!

Nebula

Raven,

  Wow, that was really cool!  Espically the volumetric effects.  12 hours is like forever.  I so wish rendering speed could be improved.

  I would also like to ask, where did you get the animation motions for her??  Was that V3 or some other character?  Her movements looked really smooth.  Where did you get them??

  Thanks again and great animation!!

Nebula

Strum,

  I guess I would have to agree that it is a shadow.  Most;ly because it is a 2D image.  What do you consider a silhouette to be exactly.

  As for the striping effect, I've had no problems there.  I did exactly as bagginsbill suggested and it's worked out great.  Now I just need some gymnastics motions to work with.

  Thanks again to everyone!!

Nebula

Tguyus,

  Hey, she looks great in both proportions, tho I have to agree, smaller looks quite more comfortable.  I would like to ask, what shoes is she wearing?  They seem to fit her well.

Thanks!

Nebula

bagginsbill,

  Duh, I should have thought of that one myself.  I will have a look.  Yes, that is the parameter I was talking about.  And thank you for the compliment.  I don't usually upload very much, always wanting the "perfect" render.  I need to get over that.

  Again, thank you for all your help!!

Nebula

Also, what do I need to do to open the lights Map Size to something larger than 1024.  It's currently limited to 1024.

Thanks again!!

Nebula

bagginsbill,

    This is fantasic stuff!  It's working great!.  Thank you again.  I would like to ask, I am limited to 1024 for the lights Map Size.  Can't go any higher.    I hope to post something next time I write.

  Thanks again!!!!

Nebula

bagginsbill,

  This is awesome!  Just what I was looking for!  I have been working with it and so far it's doing great!  Once question, is there a way to get rid of the aliasing?  I was using Firefiy but tend to get some heavy aliasing.

  Otherwise, this is fantastic!!  Thanks so much!!

Nebula

Excellent!  I will give it a try.  Thanks to everyone!

Also, what a theory!  The Dark Sucker......
