Hi Chris,

I do not think what you said was rude, it is never rude to state facts.

I'm sorry you can't use the tutorial that I suggested.

Please help me out here ... if you can.

What is "word blind?"
Sorry but I am ignorant on this.
I have never heard of it.

What would I need to do to make a tutorial that you could use?

I would be more than happy to try and accomodate your needs because I am sure you are not the only one in this situation.

Can you help me help you?

Thanks. ;=]

Word blind is that you have trouble with word i can read Ok thats not the problem.

But when is read often i read the same line twice see a word and read an other ..

An example.. my cpu has a fan from the company called asaka ... and i always readed it as : alaska.

My eyes sometimes see a word and fill in the word to my mind before i REALY read it...

And with tings that are colorfull and random wordt in it like your tut's is becoming realy difficult to focus on whats realy there...

I have a mild version of it other people have it more intense...

A tut thats clear in line and a steady makeup is far more easy to read for me

but there is no need to turn the CAPS on its called "blind" but i always had 20-20 vision.

????? thats not realy funny those lines .. but for your info that kind of line's with all those ... and *** etc etc makes it worse.

what i whould like to see is a tut like you do with the images but plain and simple

no flashy colors no un needed info "jokes" etc etc no cross link things . just plain text and explainings.

On the other hand i think the tut as you make it can be more difficult to non english people too.

But maybe you know the word dyslectic !?

Thats what its called and like i already said i got a real mild form of it.

Hi Geepster :}

Looks good but i never said no text... what whould be ideal is that next to the "image" say No1

There is a Box with the explaining text, so you wil have the image that speaks 70% for itself

and next to it the explaining of it..

Image1 :explaining "delete the standart figure that poser loads. so you will have a empty scene.

Image2 :explaining "load from the props section under primitives the Box Object.

Image3 : explaining etc etc etc etc etc

You got my idea ?

If you do it like this i think even more people start to get the things 90% faster.

I think in real life your a funny dude that like to make joke's etc etc, but in a tut they can be a bit of a pain.

Specialy for non englishs people like me, who don't always get the joke and wonder what you mean by it.

And i think this kind of tuts are mutch better to SELL :b_cool: hehehe...

So your on the right track for sure but make it like i said txt in a box next to the image.

And i think you can upgrade from DR.Geep to PROFESSOR GEEP :thumbupboth:

EDIT !! i just saw the gray version COLOR is better than grey !!

Ask Sharen (sams3d) for her "chest" tutorial. She has a nice tutorial on how to turn a chest prop into a figure with a lid that opens.

(click for a larger image)

Here are Pages 7 & 8.

Now, we have 2 new objects that we created from Poser's Box prop.

Next, we will:

Parent the Top to the Bottom
Adjust the "Origin" of the "Top" to make it hinge properly
Save the compound prop (2 objects) in the Props Library

Hi all. Hi Geep.

Just regarding a certain way of being that some people call dyslexia.

For some people it works like this, while most people can filter visual stimulea to see it in a linear form if need be... left to right and going down the page in the case of English text, some people, mainly visual rather than verbal thinkers, have difficulty with this filtering. They see the letters running backward and forward, up and down, diagonals and zig-zags simultaneously... they must use the cognitive rather than precognitive portion of their mind to try to filter out the "non-sensical" letter permutations.

This can be tiring, and this can be much worse when one is tired. My child was being forced to learn counting in multiples using tables. We can both do it by chanting the numbers (10, 20, 30,40...) but looking at the chart, even with the multiples hi-lighted, I actually see a flickering cloud of numbers no matter how hard I focus. This is not a psychological matter, it is purely physiological I believe. my other kid though is horrendously linear.

With this condition of text perception it is necessary to do the mental equivalent of reading with one's finger running under the lines of text... text in lines too short or too long start to flip-flop. Lines that are placed irregularly also are hard to apprehend. Colored text causes confusion because one is distracted by the pattern of color blocks on the page.

I don't believe in accommodations since life makes no accommodations. I believe in adaption though, typing instead of writing because if you don't look at the screen while you type you are dealing mainly with motion patterns, imagining a line running from the back of your head to a point on the page that you scan. I don't know any phone numbers, not even my own or my mothers, except as patterns on the key pad... my mother types on a keyboard with the letters completely worn off. I read mainly by recognizing the pattern of shapes and how the fall above and below the middle area and basically perceive the text of at least three lines at once as though they were pictograms.

This problem with text is often found in artists and strangely enough in mathematicians... also sometimes surgeons and engineers. People who can process three-dimensional reality dynamically, who are conscious of the 3D maps the mind constantly makes to navigate. Who can see the backs of things at the same time as the front. The amount of 3D information can be overwhelming and the tendency to perceive multi-dimensional patterns such as those on a page of text can be distracting. The habit of focusing on details to sift through visual stimulea allows a fine apprehension of detail, as a teacher doing adult education over the years I often had students who were surgeons who could not write but whose first drawings were at the level of a second or third year student. I often see images here that have terrible fatal flaws in the individual features that seem to elude people who see a face holistically.

There are certain indicators associated with the phenominea, practical things like having to even as an adult sing the alphabet song to know which letters come before which, having to break words into short sing-song 2, 3, and 4 letter patterns to spell them, "seeing" the back and sides of ordinary objects like a computer terminal while looking at the front of it, placing things behind the head when visualizing them and having a map of what is behind one (I sit with my back to the wall in restaurants but end up imagining what is behind the wall). Maybe most importantly, thinking without any internal monologue or pre-verbalization.

You may have noticed how I break my text into paragraphs and how my spelling is when I don't have my spellcheck. I type and spell check notes to the teacher before handwriting them out. I also have two master's degrees from prestigious American universities.

Anyway, this is what I think BAR-CODE was referring to.

Geep,don't go changing, to try and please me, you never let me down before.

Here, we see that there are
2 ways to make a prop poseable ...

We can:

Use multiple objects ... and ... "parent" one object to another
= or =
Convert the objects into a (poseable) Poser figure

We, also, see that there are
2 ways to "parent" one object to another.

We can:

Use the menu to "Change Parent"

Hey Bar-Code,

I won't step in on the good Doctor's tutorials. He is a good guy and always does his best to help. I DID want to compliemnt you on your terrific sets. They are wonderfully modelled and offer a great environment with many possibilities.

I just wanted to put in here that sometimes it is simply a mtter of grouping. I was playing with your set, and was trying to get your barrels separated from the floor so I could move them about as separate props. In the Grouping tool, I hit spawn props, and suddenly I could raise the main door using Y-Tran!

Hang in there! Keep up the GREAT work! (FYI, I put in a request to Blues Dragon to see if he would be willing to make a light set for the Sci Fi hall)

Thanks!

==========================================

@ BAR-CODE

FYI -

Spawn Props is basically the opposite of EXPORTing props and then IMPORTing them as a single object.

(in Poser) => Spawn props takes a single object apart according to it's groups and makes a separate object (prop) for each group.

You mean it cuts the part lose from the rest and make it a new part ?

So if i spawn a barrel it becomes a lose barrel ?

Actually, the Spawn Props will split all groups if I am not mistaken. I tried this and it did make movable barrels in your scene, but it also split the barrel tops from the drums. This could be good or bad :unsure:

I am a Poser tinkerer. i can usually figure things out, but I am not necessarily a good teacher. I am sure Dr Geep will produce a solid solution for you.

Special for Chris,

Your model is EXCELLENT with much attention to detail ...
... however, it is VERY large for use in Poser (it has over 400,000 polygons).

You might want to take a look at the modeling program that you are using to see if you can reduce the number of polygons that are used without sacrificing detail as shown in the attached graphic.

The example shows only one of the many groups in your model.

Note that .gif texmaps are limited to 256 colors so this may not be applicable to your particular situation.

See the attached graphic for an example from your model.

Only your 2nd project ???

WOW !!! That makes what you have created even more impressive!!!

It will be very interesting to see what you can create when you have more experience.

Keep up the excellent work.

thou and I, my friend, can, in the most flunkey world, make, each of us, one non-flunkey, one hero, if we like: that will be two heroes to begin with. (Carlyle)

I originally had no intent to make a posable prop but had to peek inside and found this wonderful exchange.

Doctor, the tut pages are easier to read for me too (yes, I have to say the whole alphabet to figure which comes first, 'U' or 'V', LOL).

I'm sorry !!! :cursing:

I have been trying for about an hour - yes, that almost 60 minutes to get into this thread so that I can post something.

If you would like to continue this tut, please visit Dr Geep Studios (click the link below) and look for the GREEN ticket.

I WILL NOT be making any more posts here in this thread because it usually takes me about 20-30 seconds just to get into the R'osity website and it seems to be taking longer and longer to access almost anything here.

(almost) Every time I have tried to access this thread, my browser would lock up and i would need to use the Task Manager to End the Process for R'osity then restart the browser and try again. :cursing:

I do not have enough hours in the day to "play" with this anymore. ... I quit !!!
Sorry R'osity ... perhaps I shall try again in another 2-3 months ... maybe ...

If you are interested ... You may follow the rest of this tut on my website.

no cheers,

P.S. Please feel free to email me drgeep@cableone.net with any questions.

just a note to what geep said about using gif's instead of jpg's.....gif's won't work in ProPack or P4. At Poser 5, they finally got the idea to use gif's.

reducing polys.....what program are you using to create the objects with. most of the higher end apps have some sort of optimise, although the name might vary from app to app. This will reduce the number of polys in an object by a variable factor. A little trial and error will let you see how much you can optimise for differant shaped objects. For flat sided, square objects, you can normally optimise quite hard without losing geometry definition. For more complex shapes, you can't optimise as much, because the mesh will deform. And you can't optimise much on curved faces without it starting to appear facetted.

"That which doesn't kill you is probably re-loading"

I was using 3dMax i switched to hexagon... but still have acces to MAX...

And using GIF is NOT a option the amout of colors is not ok for me.. as i improve my moddeling skill so wil the texture and 256 color is a nono to me :}
