Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 02 3:16 pm)

We now have a ProPack Section in the Poser FreeStuff.
Check out the new Poser Python Wish List thread. If you have an idea for a script, jot it down and maybe someone can write it. If you're looking to write a script, check out this thread for useful suggestions.

Also, check out the official Python site for interpreters, sample code, applications, cool links and debuggers. This is THE central site for Python.

You can now attach text files to your posts to pass around scripts. Just attach the script as a txt file like you would a jpg or gif. Since the forum will use a random name for the file in the link, you should give instructions on what the file name should be and where to install it. Its a good idea to usually put that info right in the script file as well.

I was playing with the geomSubdivide2.py script that comes with Poser PP, and it seems very limited.

First off it seems the mesh must be triangulated first.

Second it seems to totally screw up the UV mapping.

Does anyone know if a better script exists, or if there is some other way to subdivide a mesh and keep the UV mapping correct?

The easy way would be getting a copy of C4D CE or Wings3D and simply subdividing it there. But it should as well be possible to make the script work with quads and calc the new UVs - the catmull-clark subdivision algorithm is well documented.

Thanks Stewer,

I'll check those out. I don't have a clue how to write this myself.
