Yup! That did it. Someone should emphasise it in the help manual section. Many thanks for your help and advice. Valid! Well done, I appreciate it. Mol
Thread: POSER 13 EXPORTING PNG FILES | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
Thread: Only in Poser 13 | Forum: Poser 13
I'll do a full analysis over this weekend and record my tests. I have used Poser since its very beginning.
Thread: Only in Poser 13 | Forum: Poser 13
I have rendered the figure using the default modes in both firefly and in superfly in poser 11 and poser 13.
Sorry! The renders are sharp in Poser 11 and in 13 THE SUPERFLY rendering produces unsharp images. I have no doubt now there is a critical issue with Poer 13 Supefly renderer. I sell products on Renderosity and the creators of Poser 13 need to fix this!
Thread: Only in Poser 13 | Forum: Poser 13
More about poor superfly renders in Poser 12. These show the issue. The first image is the firefly render. the last image is superfly render.

Not my area of expertise, but try posting a render so the real experts can get a look. Better still, both the Firefly and Superfly versions so a comparison can be made.I have noticed that in Poser 13, the final render with Superfly is not as sharp as when I render with Firefly. Has anyone else noticed this? Solution?

This will be painfully obvious to the experienced user, but I myself have little experience with Superfly: 1. You may need to increase pixel samples if the image has a grainy look to it. 2. For the same reasons, you may have to turn off Adaptive sampling, or consider lowering the threshold number. When adaptive sampling notices the quality cannot be further improved with further passes/sampling, it quits. The threshold determines just how picky it gets about the quality; the lower the threshold, the higher the quality.
Might also want to check Depth of Field settings, or PostFX.
That's all I've got. Time for someone who know what they're talking about to answer your questions.
Sorry for leaping in when the adults should be talking.

Thread: Add Library Does not work? | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
i am having similar problems. When I first installed poser 8 the librarysystem worked perfectly. Closed down poser and opened it up again and now I get am iframe with a browser window set it in to download flash 10, which I already have. As far as I an concerned this is a seious bug because it causes poser to be unstable, even if you can find a work around which I am about to explore.

Thread: Poser Animation DVD Tutorial that covers everything? | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
I have been working on an animation kit and tutorial. I thought I had finished it tonight, after months of work. And then I started to discover tons of things I did not know about both Poser and animation techniques. Animating anything in Poser requires a complete understanding of Poser itself. No product yet exists, or computer, program, or software product, that allows the dream of creating something animated of humans or living articulated mammals, which can animate the simpliest of sequences over a few seconds at the click of a button or a few days work.
People come to stores like this one and expect a 'one-click' solution to easy problems but take it from me, animation is probably one of the most difficult things to do properly! Look around Renderosity and other stores and for Poser and Daz, and you will find the same issus: namely... animation.
It can take many days ust to get V4 to fold her arms. You can create a product which will do that based on selling the pose, but hey, if people don't realise that to integrate it in their animation requires them to really know more than a thing or two, what is the point. I am creating products like this but I am starting to realise I am ging to have to spent far more time teaching folks how to use it.
{sight}!

I can learn how to animate on my own but that will take like a week or two instead of a few days with a dvd video tutorial.
Here we have a clearly over confident person. Proper animation of even a single character takes months (or years) to master and weeks to render. Adding complexities (like multiple characters interacting) will add to this.
Even if a DVD existed it would probably take weeks of dedicated time to understand it and try all techniques out. Most people would require a long time to understand just a fraction of the possibilities, try them out and remember them, then proceeding to the next bit. Learning from a DVD (which is learning by example) means looking at a chapter, try it out, look at the chapter again because it didn't work, repeating this until it does work; then proceed to the next chapter; once all chapters have been checked one should do the entire DVD again to make sure everything was remembered properly. In my experience a 15 minute chapter (of complex material) takes about 4 hours. This means a 6 chapter DVD takes about 30 hours. Given the complexities in animation I would assume about 20 chapters are required.
Animation is not a simple thing and in Poser it will take a substantial amount of time to properly set up an animation. Defining each key frame and checking for a fluid animation takes time. Even on the best computer the play back speed is rarely real time. This often means using simple stick figures first to make a complete scene. Then replace each figure with a character and checking the interaction with a minimal visible part. Finally checking the whole scene and rendering it. Then in the final render you will notice a few problems and you start fixing those.
Thread: V4.2 Arrives! Problems and issues shared here. | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
Quote - > Quote - Holy crap! You'd think they'd taken one of her legs away, listening to all the whingeing and complaining in this thread.
What the f*ck is wrong with you people? It's the same model, it just handles morphs a tiny bit differently (better in my opinion). And you get a decent male morph, for $0.00.
Can anyone point to something about V4.2 that is actually worse than V4.1?
Judging by the replies, the installer is options-free and thus screws up the delicate balance of V4.1 that users have, with little apparent benefit.
Judging by the replies, that is.
From Mol:
I am not complaining but there are differences from a developer point of view. For example, V4 can now crash my Poser 7 if I do things to figures I created from V4.1.
Most users will not actually have this happen to them as they will be unlikely to work through my combinations of testing but whereas I was about to put ou a 100% perfect product, it will now be invisibly only 95% perfect. I do not like changes which somehow, inexplainably shift the workings of things. I gaurantee you there is a bug in this new version and it was brought out to fix several bugs in the previous 2 versons. As an X programmer, I understand all the issues, but it seems that we, the users, especially the product creators, are the unsung testers of DAZ V4.
That all said. I am stunned and delighted with this figure and the advance of the technology in creating images from 3D models. Complain...? Never!

ps: There are other adjectives you could use for your self-censored swear word. use that if you like, but it shows sometimes that people are talking emotively instead of carefully selecting something something more precise. I hope you are not creating products the same way :))
Thread: V4.2 Arrives! Problems and issues shared here. | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
Actually, if I load a character I made from V4.1 which has a set of morphs on the hip, and try the morph brush on her, but now 4.2, I get a problem. If I try to morph the head (of my character), Poser crashes and disappears quicker than I can blink. Morphing anywhere else is fine.
A strange one.
Anyway, I guess I can use this to shut down poser in the future as it is quicker than trying to 'offically' close the program. (Poser 7).

Quote - Actually, there were code problems in 4.1, like crashing Poser if you used the morph brush on her. 4.2 it's fixed.
The only thing I can find to complain about are the hidden dials.
Thread: V4.2 Arrives! Problems and issues shared here. | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
I just found some problems in my new product and it seems V4.2 too.
I load v4.2 and when I enter (Poser 7) the Morph edit tool and try to morph the figure: poser crashes out to nothing.
The only + thing is that it unloads poser quicker than anything I have in Windows :)Â Â {sigh!).
I will look again in the morning. 5.00 a.m. here. What a bummer.
Anyone else?
Something is not right!?

Thread: V4.2 Arrives! Problems and issues shared here. | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
Well, I am pleased to say my stuff works okay in poser, both existing and new stuff about to be launched. Although, when I go into the renderoisty control room to update the existing products to confirm they are fit for V4.2, I am unable to make amendments. Different issue, I know, but annoying!

Thread: V4.2 Arrives! Problems and issues shared here. | Forum: Poser - OFFICIAL
I just loaded V4.2 and renamed all the 4.1 figure files in my poser 7 directory. Since my product (to be) calls up the V4 cr, this should? let me know if my stuff still works.
It seems to so far. The new 4.2 is loading in place of the old 4.1.
More tests to do, but so far - so good. Textures, morphs etc, yet t work through.

I have to check a previous product. I will do this first.
