Whilst an amusing idea, doing it to "Bohemian Rhapsody" would likely breach copyright.

Speech designer works best with an audio track containing the words, and a text file containing the actual words.

IMHO. the best results for a singing voice (and accompanying music) would be to record yourself speaking the word in time with the music. For a singing song, you may expect to say some words fast; and some slowly. Use that recording with Speech Designer. After everything is done, simply replace the new recording with the original audio file.

In addition, it is worth looking at the phonemes files, as they show which phones are associated. Then, when creating the text file for Speech Designer, it is possible to mis-spell words deliberately in order to allow for effect.

I would be interested what the OP finds.

I might guess it sounds like a humbucker pickup played through a Marshall amp/cabinet. Perhaps a small amount of a distortion. And with a small amount of echo (just a few millisecs delay). Some compression can then maintain the volume level (assisted probably by the guitar itself which is designed to sustain notes, e.g. Les Paul).

Many thanks.

Some comments:

I do not think the "XNALara" app will accept this format of 'ascii mesh' files.

I suspect that using a displacement map limits (max 256) the number of different values (i.e. Levels).

Other than converting to an OBJ; one option may be to write a script for Poser Python, based on the shipped script "fractualTerrain.py".  With some additional code it could read the original datafile; and then write the required values when 'filling out the the vertex array'.

Instruction "5" may help.

Is that the purpose of the method "SetAnimated"?

Load an easy rope (e.g. 20ftRope).
Load a Ball primative.
Position Ball next to bone_1 of the Rope figure.
Make the Ball the parent of the Rope Body.

Create a new Bullet Physics simulation.
Set Rope figure to be Soft Dynamic.
Set the Ball (and Ground and stairs etc) to be Choreographed.

Move the Ball to different positions at different keyframes.
Run the simulation.

I am not an expert with Bullet. But for this demo, I found setting the Rope's "Linear stiffness" affected the elasticity of the rope; and "Linear Damping" to affects it's flexibility.

Note. The easyrope figure does not maintain it's shape and it turns into something like a ribbon. I suspect other Bullet settings would help.

Many thanks PhilC! That works perfectly.

Many thanks! I have corrected it and it runs. But oddly, at any keyframe it only finds one paramater for one actor. e.g.

I Load Andy. At frame 11, I set values for his "Chest", for Twist, Side-Side and Bend. When I run the script, it only finds "Twist". And not for the other two parameters.

It feels like Keyframes are attached to the Actor, but don't indicate all the Parameters which may have contributed to being a Keyframe for the Actor.

Hoping I am making sense. And more hopeful that I am missing something obvious.

Thank you.

Whilst perhaps of little use, the readme file with PP2014 includes this sentence:

"PoserPython scripts can make use of Tkinter to provide a GUI. Poser Pro 2014 ships with Tkinter 8.5. Scripts that were written for an earlier version of Tkinter might require adjustment. Please contact the author of your script for details. We are currently unable to support Tkinter 8.5 in 64-bit environments on the Mac."

I also see the quoted error message appears in the code (line 39) on my 64bit 2014Pro file in: "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser Pro 2014RuntimePythonLiblib-tkTkinter.py". But it's meaning is beyond my understanding.

As far as I can see the "Orbit Selected mode" ("rotates the camera around the
currently selected actor") is most suitable. But I do not understand the comment in the Help file (page 51) which warns about using specific body parts.

Instead of "parm = actor.ParameterByCode(poser.ParmCodeBEND)", I suspect this might work:

parm = actor.Parameter("Bend")

Does these help?  http://ironpython.net/tools/   or   http://pytools.codeplex.com/

I found them very interesting. But I am confused (I know little about comics etc). When I zoomed into the speech bubbles, they are not just white. It looks like their is a texture affecting them. Is this because the image is intended to represent printing on poor quality paper?

The other question is about some of the very small splodgy dark lines (like the Captain's bottom lip). Is this a result of the Render settings?
