anyone know where to get these? i had a set of them once, probably for v3, but that drive is dead. they are so useful when posing...

Forgive my ignorance, but what's a body lock?
Does this keep the torso in position while posing the arms & legs etc. If it doesn't mean this then I'm stumped!

yeah that is what it does. you can lock the body parts then pop on a pose, everything will move but the locked parts. you can lock each body part in the menu object | lock actor (in P5) but that can get a little tedious. i had been using someones bodylocks pose set on a pc which recently croaked, took em for granted. that set was great. pose sets to lock half the body, or only an entire arm, unlock everything, etc. really helps you mix up poses like crazy. between that and partial poses, posing get much easier

Yeah, I can see the benefit in this, would save a lot of time than having to lock each part individually.

okeydoke i just discovered in case anyone is interested
i still haven't found the original set...however the pose set that ships with apollo max works just fine with anything. i opened in a cr2 editor, the poses are teeny affairs that seem to be specific to nothing as long as the internal parts names are the same. if the internal parts names differ on some character, i'm sure just renaming parts in the pose files would take care of that

Netherworks had a set of these, but I can't locate the download on his site.
You could try a PM or attempt to make your own.
