Hiya, I want to export my Poser 6 models to Quicktime VR (QTVR) movies because I want viewers to be able to interactively view and look around my static scenes. Can anyone recommend PC software that will enable me to import a fully textured model, exported in one of the Poser formats? I know that Poser already has viewpoint Experience Technology, but unless I'm missing something, it sucks! The textures are mapped wrong, there are cracks in the seams, clothes and hair don't fit right, and transparency doesn't translate properly. The image-based approach of QTVR seems preferable unless anyone has a better solution that is both universal on the web, cross-platform, and easy to generate. There appear to be plenty of programs for creating QTVR panoramas, and even objects from photos, but none that work from models. Failing that, and only as an ABSOLUTE last resort, how can I move the camera around my object at an even distance, in precise degree increments in all three axes? Is there a way to automate the process of moving and rendering? I'd need to move the camera 360 degrees in at least 22.5 degree increments in the horizontal plane, and through 180 degrees in the vertical plane, which by reckoning means 128 render positions.
