I was playing with Studio 2 and the puppeteer plug-in.... I made a small animation and would like to save it in a generic format like avi and send it to a friend... I already looked for tuts...none tells you how to save animation...

There is one way I can think of immediately, and that's to take the animation back to Bryce - the animation render from there already is avi.
How to do it just from DazStudio, I'd be interested to hear.

askfran dot com has all the answers. 
EDIT - I just checked, and that is an unused URL, fran...

Studio 2 does not have that "save as" in puppeteer... I'm talking about Studio 2 and puppeteer...
I wish it had a save video clip like that.... At least I did not see it....
how to work puppeteer is not the basic problem..... it is how to save it in a format I can carry away from Studio and play it in say; Realplayer... or Itunes...

Tom,
As fran pointed out, you have to render your animation in daz. On the render settings menu you can choose between a single frame or the whole animation and there is where you can save it as an avi.

Here's a (hopefully) helpful screen cap: ^^^
DV - oh yes, unused is it?... how would one go about using it then? does it cost?
ROFL!

Ah thanks... I thought you could just save it like that..... Now I'll need to look at the rendering functions....... Thank you again...

I got it done... Thank you...
I had the emoticon do some simple stuff..... The file turn out too large (at 15MBs+) but thats because I don't know how to play with the time line settings... for this I'll go to the tuts on time line functions...

Fran, you'd have to register the domain.
You can get that done for about $10US a year.
Then you'd need a host that supports domain names. Most do, and you can get them for as low as $4.95US / Month, or in that range.

Hmmm, I'll have to think about it. Thanks for the info DV.
Tom271, good luck with the tuts.
