Hi wolf359,

yes - I knew that already.
I tried collada and fbx export from DAZ studio.
In my case, the results were not very satisfying - lots of issues.

Of course I wouldn't want anybody to upload these files in any public place...

I hope that somebody has houdini installed and could try it for me.
Btw., there's a (nearly) fully functional free non-commercial edition of houdini called "apprentice"... ;)

Thanks mate and cheers

Sockwave3D authoring is done with Macromedia Director(v8.5) - not Fash!

Thanks.

Thanks!

Thanks again! I'm just downloading the pdf. Hmm, I think what you say about providing different versions for different output-devices/viewers really makes sense. What do you think: Could it be ok to work fully in 16:9 anamorphic and after everything is finished just scale/stretch the movie to get the other versions? It's clear that therefore in 4:3 fullscreen the screen layout should stay well-positioned. I'm just talking about the change of the pure image quality. There will be no extremely total shots with many details. So could the quality-loss be tolerated? Or would you recommend to render every version in it's own size. By the way, the animation will be about 2,5 minutes. OK, I know you can hardly generalize this, but I'm interested about your opinion/experience. Another question: It's not possible to render fields in Poser4, right? And because ProPack german is not yet released, I even can't render with motion blur, directly. At the moment I'm using Digital Fusion to make motion blur manually by blending 3 times the same clip each 1 frame delayed with different transparency settings. It works Ok but I think that there must be programs/plugins or whatever that have better results. Can you recommend me anything? I heard that Reelsmart Blur works very well. Any opinions/tips?

I'm a bit confused... Because when I export an image with our video editing system (FAST Silver, comparable to Avid or Media100 systems) from a 16:9 movie (not letterboxed), it looks exactly like my results in Poser, I think -> 720x576 (PAL). So is there really a loss in horizontal resolution if the movie is made for 16:9 TV's only? Maybe I misunderstood your last two posts, but you are talking about viewing the movie on a device that's not a 16:9 TV, right? How can I avoid this problem you mentioned when working with Poser4 (and Digital Fusion)? Thanks for your posts! You really helped me, but can you please explain to me what you're thinking of exactly? Maybe the problem is my only middle-class, school-learned English.

Thanks, Robert! botti
