Hi. Recently I've been trying to find ways to improve my Z-tooning technique, but haven't had much luck besides using vector lines in postwork to make clean outlines. Today I loaded DAZ Studio in order to make a new Z-toon to experiment on, and I just noticed that it doesn't seem to work at all in this program. The characters do get flattened, but the joints break and fold (maybe something to do with IK?) and the 2D look is ruined. I seem to remember seeing cartoony images by Veritas that he said were done in DAZ Studio, or perhaps Stewer or Ockham might be able to help find an alternative method using scripting. If anyone has had better luck, could you post here and explain what you did? Thanks very much! SnowS (mods, if possible, please don't move this to the D|S Forum yet. It's dead over there, and I need to hear from Poser regulars who have helped me develop this technique, originally designed for Poser. Thanks!) :)
