The Maya Doll freebies section has been updated with some older for-sale products that are now available for free!  Thank you Maya-san

Whats the difference between Maya Doll and Anime Doll?  I've seen references to both.

Just saw that as well...ugh.  Been waiting all year on a good P9-P2012 side-grade sale. 

I have little hope left... :crying:

There is a lot of add-ons...which you can see as good or bad.  I bought and returned it, cause I realized you could not make some standard golden age style suits with the base product only...and $$$ would add up.

There are a lot of other suits out there that cost nothing, that had what I needed.

I have seen some cool renders of it though!

Quote - Oh yeah, fancy trying this V3 character PickledPapaya?

I'd be interested to know if this one would work...

End's up I don't have V3 Head and Body morphs.  If this does not need them, then I can try.  If it does, then I am out of luck.  I have never used V3, so not sure if it needs em or not

Quote - Look closer. You're mixing two types of mesh flows with the same poly count. GenX does its comparisons and transfers against the genesis shape and applies it according to the Genesis shape in the final transfer so it all mixes in. The transfer tool does it against the genesis clone. Clones are used to help in the transfer of clothing since it's a exact match but lower polycount and slightly larger than the genesis shape; the genesis shapes are an approximation of the original shape, but allows it to mix with all other genesis shapes. So things like abdomen and muscle creases and flows are in different places, so you're mixing them together.

You may not see it that well  if you're just using transferred shapes, but if you decide to mix them in with genesis shapes that don't have a gen4- gen3- equivalent (like individual morphs from the Evolution Morphs, V5, or S5), you'll see what I'm talking about. The clones weren't meant to mix, they were meant for converting clothing.

How 'bout I'll take your word for it :tongue1:

I am not real interested in creating blends right now.  I am happy getting GND4, Utopian, and a couple of my favorite characters into Genesis.

Quote - I'm interested in getting the Generation X utility... but not in any hurry at present. I will probably just wait for Gen X, and the various Gen4 and Gen4 shapes packs, to come  back on sale now...

Me too.  To be honest, I wish we had known about the DSON before the big vendor sale a month or so ago.  GenX went on sale for %50...I would've grabbed it!  (same for many other items)  This is to tide me over until the next sale.  Hoping for a "Welcome Poser Users to Genesis" storewide sale on Genesis stuff.

Quote - Knowing nothing about DS I was unaware of the transfer utility. I would be interested in your results of transfering V3 or S3 characters and morphs. I would want to import the result into Poser.

I dont have a V3 character to test with?  Is there a freebie one out there that you want me to try and convert?  I would be happy to try!

V4 heads work fine.    Had a few minor updates to the doc.

No luck with A3.  Best I got with A3 is posted here   :sad:

Gonna try just a v4 head and see how that works out.

Quote - Don't try to mix your transferred bodies that you converted using the transfer tool and the regular genesis morphs... the shapes won't mix well (you may see double definition in areas like abs and torso area). The heads will mix better, just doublecheck the eyes and eyelashes. If you want to transfer body morphs and have those shape mix, use GenX.

Just mixed GND4 with aiko3, voluptuous, bodybuilder and child, and seems to mix fine. (though quite unattractive)  Not real sure what you are talkin about?

Going to give A3 Sylfie a go, will post results.  I'll include the head for kicks.  :)

I just revamped the conversion of other figures to Genesis using the free, built-in Transfer Utility.

This update works without a hitch that I can find.  Not tried a head/face yet, but I will.  Did both Utopian and GND4 bodies with no issue.  (GND4 is the example)
When I get time, I'll try Sylfie for V3 and post a result.  I do have the Gen3 Iconic Shapes.

Probably not as good, fast or easy as GenX, but cheaper!  :tongue1:

Got the OK to give the whole thing.

Here is the download:  PoserOBJ_Export_BlenderCycles

Was going to make a interface...but got lazy.  It works.  Feel free to enhance, rewrite, etc!

It scales to 4.8768, but if you prefer 2.438 for more accurate Blender metric units, just do a search/replace.

If your Blender location is different, its in there too, to modify.

Now I am off to play, and learn! :tongue1:

Quote - Yes, the point was to make the distinction between running as a stand alone and running as a script within Poser.

Yea, I assume it was the app.Mainloop() that was crashing Poser, as I was doing all my learning from the wxPython forums/sites direct, and not specific to Poser.

Thanks to both of you for the replies, I am progressing, have a dialog, fields,, etc...and am working on tying it into my script.  :)

Quote - You sill see it says maybe 10 lines from the top

print "Running in Poser 8"

Print is the command to ahh print data on you screen. Change that line between the quotes to read "Priniting Money" (snicker) or anything you like.

Oh, thanks, that makes sense.

Now I need to understand why he is greeting the world at the beginning of the script, and if it is necessary to be so formal, or can I just say, "Wassup!"

OK, I found a small sample script from PhilC HERE

That should get me started...it works, and should get me started.  1st item, find out why it says "running in poser 8"  ;-)

ugh....

I saved .blend into a different directory, so it could not find the textures.

...very embarassing  :bored:

Case Closed.
