Hiya all. First, thanks folks for helping me with that props problem. I figured out what I was doing wrong (don't render your props before saving them in your library!). Anyway, does anyone know where I can find Poser 4 figures (or even Poser 3) of a Stormtrooper, Sandtrooper, Snowtrooper, and/or Imperial Officer? Meesa lookin', meesa no findin! (Meesa want Jar Jar's head on a pike.) I looked on SWMA, but nothing there is posable. Any clues, folks?

There's the Poser free stuff here , I know they have some. Also the
Props Guild has SW characters too like Mara Jade and some other
fine meshes. The link to that is on the right ---> Don't forget
to search the 3D Links forum we have here too , it may contain
links you need , I've posted several myself. Good luck! >-- It's
not about the mission , Master , it's
something...elsewhere...elusive... --

Oh I forgot to mention , instead of taking hours to search each page just type in your query into the 'search' box to find your beloved souls.

I've looked in here for Stormtroopers, R2-D2, and even the battle droids....and if the links are visible, they're defunct...which is very depressing...

You may need to email the authors or post another request here for them. I don't think they're gone because the popularity is so high. I know someone here will bail you folks out. Props Guild has them I believe , Qui-Gon , Anakin , Mara Jade , Luke/Leia in ANH and ESP garb. The Battle Droid is listed here as well in this forum so you may have to go through a few weeks to find the url.

There used to be an Imperial Stormtrooper in the Poser Free Stuff, but he has vanished: a search for "troop" just now found nothing.

So does anyone want to take up the challenge of making a functional Stormtrooper for Poser 4? How about Jar Jar's head on a pike? Think of how many downloads THAT one would get! (Meesah thinkin' you no like Jar Jar, Dis5!)

How about Jar Jar's head on a pike? No. Leave him alone! I quite liked him when I saw the film.

Do a search for Xanxost in the free stuff. He made a functional StormTrooper and Sand Trooper. WHat ever comes up from his stuff, just click on his name and it will open a window with the option to send an email to him.
Discordian5 posted Mon, 12 June 2000 at 9:11 AM
Tried looking. Doesn't seem to be here?
Anthony Appleyard posted Mon, 12 June 2000 at 9:17 AM
If Xanxost has vanished, then perhaps we wait aa time and then declare him "gone and out of the scene" and let someone else upload his models so there is a copy for people to download. There must me someone on channel who has them.

Hmm. I have a rather extensive 3d library and I think I have his Star Wars files. I don't know if he forbids distribution or not. I have Colms files too, and I believe that he forbids it in the readme. Most modelers do, you know. Greywolf

Greywolf is quite correct - even if Xanxost is MIA, you still need to get his permission to re-distribute his files Paul

I found an old message from him in my email. The address was: xanxost@yahoo.com

Thanks for the help, folks...I sent a letter to him and I should know soon, I hope...:)
