I think part of the issue is using the Word SAVE. In Poser, you ADD Animations to your Pose Folder using the Plus Signs at the bottom of the Content Display. When you Add it, make sure you have the Body selected. It will not Add the Wall, but will Add the 3 Frames of motion. Also, I am assuming here , but since you say you are new I am going to guess that you did each Frame of the Animation. You only need to set the Pose in Key Frames to make the Frames between Key Frames fill in with the Animation. Also, when having something stop and change direction you most likely want to Break the Spline of the Animation at the point it hits the Wall (or the Apex of the movement in the Animation Graph). This will make the direction change quicker (as in a bouncing ball.)

I use Poser for Story Board Images for commercials and mock-ups of Stock Ads. I am also working with Animation for my own interest. I would prefer to make everything I use (more money for me!), but I do not have the skill or the time and presentation is important when trying to sell a client a concept for a commercial or a series of ads. Most of my work is for what I like to call my Patron (His payments fund my future work!), who is in Marketing. Personally I have done few sell pieces of my own creation. I just create more visual presentation for a Marketing Professional. As I get better at Animation, his hope is to do full animated Story Boards with pacing and Camera Positions. Do I spend too much? Oh, sure!

After reading the Daz announcement, the stated, minor TOS changes, I don't think so. I'm thinking it will be another family site. Say good bye to the Gallery. I also think there will be a change in the store.

According to the Announcement at DAZ, the Gallery will remain as is. With the comments comparing DAZ to Disney, I think this is their Touchstone, so to say.

Use the Plus Sign at the bottom of the Content View to add it to one of the Figure Folders.

Once again you hae given a gift of quality to the community. Thanks. So, what happened... parents take away the go-kart! Seriously, isn't there a name for the kerchief on a pole? I swear I have heard them called something like Hobo Suitcase as well as a one word name. Anyone know what it is?

Okay, here is a tip for those having troubles after you register. You need to go back to the first page and Log In. Once you do that you can go to download. Also, make sure the Cookie is on for the Site, otherwise the Log In will not take. I had the same problems until I did this.

One word: Viagra!

I thought he had P5. You can do this in P5, but each time you start P5 without the CD or change CD's you need to add the Runtime. In all honesty, it is not that hard.

One issue with having Runtimes on a CD. If it is not there when Poser Starts, it will be cleared from the available Runtimes, so you will need to add it back each time if you do not plan on keeping it in the drive, or if you want to swap.

The DAZ Freebies are more often misleading, than actually requiring a previous purchase. Many of the Freebies are just Props and the only reason they have the tag 'Previous Purchase of... required' is they are some poses or something similar included.

I do not think that is reflection, but Poke-through, that reflection looks a bit hairy, so to say. Same on the right boot. The fit is off, but it is a nice set overall. Thanks!

I have been running into this too, and I thought it was the lights (custom Lights). Someone suggested I look into materials and though it killed the effect I was looking for in the render I removed some of the nodes in the material room and it rendered. Now, I do not think it was taxing my machine, but I do think something was/is funky with the materials/nodes. When I can get time to plug and remove each node one at a time or add them back one at a time I will let everyone know, but you might want to try disconnecting some nodes and see if it renders.

Well, since this is in the Poser Forum, I am going to figure it is something for Poser. The two options could be MAC and PC or could be P4, PP or P5 versions. QuickConform comes to mind as covering all those bases.

Gift Certificate Very useful!

Okay, here is the way it was last month. $30 gave you a monthly membership which you could keep on a month to month basis for an additional $8 a month. For joining you got a $5 Voucher which expires at the end of each month (Vouchers are good 100% on DAZ Originals, and up to 50% on Published Artist Items and can not be used for PC Items or Resale Items. You will get a new Voucher at the beginning of the next month. You gain Access to the PC Forums and the Freebies contained in there along with the Tutorials. You can participate in the PC Gallery Monthly Competition. You can buy any of the PC Items one time for $1.99 You get an additional 30% Off all DAZ Originals that are not PC Items. Annual is $100 to join and $70 to renew for another year. You get all of that, plus you get a $30 Voucher for joining and you get the Coupon for the PC Bonus Items. These Items are specific Items in the Store. You can see which ones they are by clicking on the Bonus Item Catagory in the Store Menu (beneath the PC Store Items.) If you plan on getting at least $90 dollars of DAZ Originals you will have paid for the Monthly. (That is like buying the Morph Bundle and International Beauties or a few other textures or one Base Character and its related Starter Pack. If you think you will spend about $150 over the year on DAZ Originals and make use of all the Monthly Vouchers the Annual is the way to go. You can see the difference is not much. Now I will add this. I am not sure if DAZ is still giving the $30 Voucher for Annual Members and DAZ might give the PCBonus10 Coupon to everyone that joins, not just Annual. If you can wait until Monday I would call them to get it straight, because DAZ has changed several things recently and I do not know anyone that recently joined to ask what they are giving currently.
