Hi, all!

I'm an experienced developer in many languages, but never touched Python or Poser. I was asked to make a script in Poser that will load a character, apply skin, hair, clothes, pose,  add a camera and render from a number of different positions to distinct files. 

All i need to know is if that can be done at all. 

Thnx a lot!

YES!!!! absolutely, I don't know how as I'm a total duffer when it comes to python but it can be done.

Windows 7 64Bit
Poser Pro 2010 SR1

Yes

1. loadlibraryfigure

2. loadlibrarypose  (for a mat pose applying skin texture)
        or (I forget exactly) but loadmaterial

3. same as step 1 but the you need to conform it

4. same as 2.

5. I dont know of a way to create a camera, but you can access one of the existing ones. Its just a scene actor.

6. positioning the cameraa is easy if you can work it out in advance and use preset positions,
   you can even save camera poses to be loaded as needed. Rendering is not that hard either. There are some free batch render type scripts that you can examine.

You want to look at the Poser Python methods manual which is a pdf file in the program folder. Can be accessed off the Poser Help menu.
Also get the Python 2.4 Documentation from python.org. Poser documentation doesnt really cover basic python syntax or commands.

PHILC has a nice python guide for sale.

Thnx a lot people!!!!
