Okay, here a work in progress for Figure Study II.
In this stage it's still rendering in Bryce at resolution 980x1400 with the Radiosity Lighting simulation
(in this case 960 light sources) ... and yes, it's almost the same image as the first Figure Study
(see here), only a different camera angle. And that's because I only have one OBJ of this character.

And that is what's the question about:
I am the kinda fool who doesn't save his Poser PZ3 files. I only export the figure in OBJ and use that in Bryce.
Normally it's okay but in this case it isn't:
I want to use this character in more images but I only have this 1 OBJ now.
Is it somehow possible to use that OBJ again in Poser as a morph target or whatever?
I tried some things now but no luck yet.
Also tried reproducing her again in Poser but that is impossible: I tweaked the original in so many ways that I do not recall it all.
The base is V3 and I would be very greatfull if someone has some tips on how to use this OBJ in Poser so I can use her again and make different poses/images.

You can import it into Poser and (re)create the figure fairly easily ... ... IF ... You saved the grouping data when you exported it from Poser. If you did not, it will be a complex process (in Poser) using the Grouping Tool to reproduce the body parts with the correct polygons in each group (i.e., body part) and then "spawn props" to produce individual elements. Then you would need to use the Joint Editor to establish the correct joint parameters. Did you export the .obj with "group" data? cheers, dr geep ;=]

Remember ... "With Poser, all things are possible, and poseable!"


cheers,

dr geep ... :o]
