My Robot type B character is now available in the freestuff section. I would like to have some feedback on it. It has been downloaded more than 600 times from my site and I have received _one_ mail telling me that there is something wrong with the .pz3-file. It works when I'm testing it (with Poser4). Could somebody please download it and confirm. thanks!www.colacola.se

Yup, the .pz3 failed to load the figure. Didn't have time last night to play with it.

Couldn't get it to pose. Suggestions?

OK i think I got it fixed. I removed it from the freestuff section but you can get It from my site (www.colacola.se). You were right. The file was corrupt. I have changed it and now it should work. Please download it again from my site. You may get an error message "no groups in geom" when opening the pz3-file. Just click "OK" and the (new) model will load. thanks Anders

When I load the pz3 I Still get asked for the OBJ file. the one named in the zip is different than the one asked for. I copied and renamed and now the pz3 opens just fine, however all I get is a scene with lights, no objects etc. hmmmmmm. I'm trying this in Poser5 since that's all I have, I know that the readme says Poser4/PP. Anybody else get the Robot working yet?

The model loads fine in Poser4 on my Macintosh. But there are problems.
Shoulders, forearms, and hands have the "Bend" and "Twist" reversed. In other words, bending the body part twists it and twisting the part bends it.
If you rotate the collar forward, it seperates from the torso. If you bend the chest, it seperates from the abdomen. And when you bend the abdomen, it seperates from the hip.
Some final thoughts. If the head has no moveable eyes or mouth, then there can be no expression. But much can be expressed with the hands if only the fingers were posable. The image of R2D2 came to mind. I mean, what could the director of Star Wars DO with it to make it expressive, other than shake it from side-to-side and go "Bleep! Bleep!"?
Just some feedback. Hope it's constructive.
Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things! ; )

thanks for all the feedback. I'm very glad that you are able to open it up. The "new" model will pop up in the free stuff section soon I hope. The robot is modelled with Wings3D and I'm quite new to making characters. I seem to make every mistake there is on the way. I'll try to fix the torso & chest thing. Thanks again! /Anders

Incidenatlly [OK blatant advertsing:)] but my freebies
texture work with both the eariler obj and this version.
So go kill anders bandwidth (sorry anders!) and download it.
It's better than some of the stuff in the marketplace!

thanks for the nice comment! Don't worry. I have unlimited bandwith, according to my supplier anyway. :)

I was very happy to see this post: I fell in love with this little robot guy right away and I was alarmed when I couldn't get it to work. Great job, Bazze, and you too, MrSparky!
