I'm currently working on one that has around 20-25 character figures in it. Not including props, what's the most you've ever worked with in a single scene?

31 in the Alien Scene and 24 in the Crucifixion scene

Wow! Really impressive job on both scenes! Lots going on in both. I'm really into scenes with lots of characters doing different things. It's a lot of work setting them up perfectly.

I rather suspect this will be the record holder for most characters used in a render :-)

Yeh ... I saw this picture when it was published here in rosity and it instantly popped into my mind when I saw the question here !!

"Siege" is an absolutely mind blowing scene. Award-winning in my book. Unbelievable.

When it comes to Millennium figures, the most I can put into a scene is 8 or 9 if I'm lucky of either V2 or M2 fully dressed with scene & props. V3 or M3, I can put 2 if I remove any unneeded morphs.

hmmm i just looked at siege my god it's fantastic!

Siege is fantastic but as with OneShot's great pictures, not rendered IN poser. Poser chokes much faster.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
  Using Poser since 2002. Currently at Version 11.1 - Win 10.

In a single scene, without compositing in Photoshop, five assorted Vicky2, one Vicky3 and three Mike2. I reckon I could squeeze more by using the same texture for each Vicky2 instead of a different one for each. http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=445804&Start=1&Artist=Replicant&ByArtist=Yes I can do a bit better than Farside for V3. Three Vicky3 and three Vicky2 in the same scene. I could only get the scene to render after I increased my RAM to 2Gig. All figures using the same texture, although two versions of it thanks to Dark Whisper's UTC. http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=402023&Start=19&Artist=Replicant&ByArtist=Yes Any more than that and my machine gets all huffy and refuses to play anymore.

Cool images, Replicant. I like the grandeur of "Bridge". The perspective of the camera really gives you the feeling of looking down inside one massive ship.

I would just use compositing, either in a photoshop style program or within Poser itself using paste into background. There's no reason to risk a failed render.

lessee..'job cuts' has about10 skeletons and 5 mannekins..does that count?..;) (nah, rendered in somthin' else..;)

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit

this one is my most- but others in my gallery with multiple character I think are better

I reckon that Jim Burton probably wins :)

A guy testing P5 OS X said he put 34 Cr2s into a scene in an attempt to crash Poser, but he said he couldn't get it to crash.

10 Mikes and a Vicky, all completely dressed for a sci-fi scene, including hairs.

18 with a Peintium I-200Mhz

Stupidity also evolves!

The biggest one I have ever done is an animation with 24 figures (all p4 figures). I never could render it in Poser, but had no problems rendering it in Cinema. It did take 24 hours and change to render 600 frames though. I can't post a link or pic due to the content, but if anyone is interested just send me a message and I'll give you a link to it. Ed

I did 29 of Thornes faeries. No post work, but rendered in Vue. Rendered on a Toshiba laptop with 512MB RAM, and 1.6GHz processor. It was a $749 two day special at Best Buy.

Check this out... Over 300 of the low poly figures, male and female. The trick? Don't render in Poser! :-P

I'm agreed 100% with Gorodin, never render in Poser :) Other usefull trick is to use low polygonal figures for long shoot scenes, I used more than 200 for the crowd at this picture:

SAL9000 - Hello Dr. Chandra, Will I've dream?

64 of my new low-poly figures, an reinforced platoon.

128 of 'em, an reinforced company. Render time 4 minutes in Poser 4 Dare I go on?

An rather understrength battalion. Render time 9 minutes

Commandar Ingenue Vickie (sadly out of uniform, as I couldn't conform anything to her) calls "BAT-TAL-ION, TEN-HUT!" 257 figures, 14 minutes render time, 6 minutes to save, 240 Mb PZ3. I think I could do 500+, but this is it for now!

ROFL. Oh C'mon. You can't stop now!

Ingenue Vickie scans the group, now at regimental size. Hey, somebody is out of place! There is always one who doesn't get the word! This is a preview, I got an out of memory message when I tried to render (I only have 2 Gb!). So the answer is: Poser can render more than 257, less than 513 figures. They were all in the same scene, though. Putting a pose on girl 512 look a loooooooong time, though. ;-)

But is it art? :-)
