Say you want to do a render of a camera panning a city with big animated advertices (as in Blade runner). This means that I have to be able to apply a movie file or serial of images onto an object. Is this possible?

Yes, you can do a serial of images in applying every x second a new material (can be a bitmap) to your object. If you have the courage and plenty of time to do so:-) For animated material see the link above.

If I not missunderstand you, you mean that I have to manually change the image for every image frame to render as the animation inside Vue as well as the Vue animation itself is at 25fps. If so the answer to my question is not Yes but rather No! ;) I suppose that if Vue 4 Pro was in a working condition I could use python script in order to change the images but untill it's fixed I'm stuck with Vue 4.

hmm... it seems as I can't access the materials at that level either. Crap...

You must access the materials via the material summary, not the world browser.

You can do this very easily in Poser 5, amazingly enough. I'm still a little shocked this was not address in Pro. I would just do it in post, personally (or Poser 5 where feasible.) Heck, Cool3D has this feature!
