Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Sep 18 2:50 am)

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.

This comes under the "I don't understand python but I know what the tkinter screen would do" category! BTW, If something like this already exists, can you point me to it?

  1. You load in a BVH file. As so often happens, the shoulders are all out of whack.

  2. Mark one frame of this as a "neutral pose".

The script then pretends that "neutral pose" is the zero-figure pose made by the joint editor.

  1. Using the parameter dials, adjust the shoulders so they look right.

  2. Mark that frame as an "adapted pose".

The script pretends that the adjustments you made were to the zero-figure pose. You can now save the adapted pose to the pose library.

  1. The script then runs through the whole BVH, applying the same adjustments to each frame.

The difference between doing this and using the animation graph is that you have a saveable pose representing the adjustments. Say you download a large set of BVH's from a website. Provided that all the BVH's were made for the same rigging, you could correct just one frame of the whole set, and then apply the adapted pose to all of them.
