SR2 for Poser 11 is out. Check the updates in the Manager.

SR2 Enhancements and Fixes, by Category General

• Paul and Pauline OBJs are now included for Walk Designer.

• Added Talk Designer visemes for Paul.

• Corrected normal calculation to address shading artifact on Pauline's and Paul's back.

• Direct Manipulation Tool: Enabled translate and rotate for Body actor.

• Fixed case where injecting mismatched targetParm types would cause instability.

• Hidden preference ALWAYS_WRITE_FULL_PATHS now forces absolute paths in documents

Content Library

• Library drag & drop: Added info bar to indicate drop targets.

• Enabled drag and drop from search results list.

• Added native drag & drop to enable drop on 3rd party applications (Windows only).

• Enabled preferences slider value display.

• Fixed case where thumbnails were not refreshing properly when replacing an old thumbnail with a new version.

• Library refresh now indexes directories that are updated externally.

• Adding an item to the library now indexes the directory in which the item has been added.

• Adding a runtime triggers top-level indexing so that its items show up in search.

• Enabled prioritized indexing. Now prioritizing indexing of Runtimes which have been indexed the longest time ago (or never).

• Fixed case where Library layout would change after adding new folder.

• Fixed case where selecting subset while adding props to Library would cause instability.

• Improved search results: Now showing found folders.

• Reintroduced "Locate" context menu functionality for search results.

• Search queries can now contain single or double quoted phrases as well as - or ~ for negation.

• Fixed a problem where search results panel wasn't populating fully. This would cause only the top 20 results to show until forcing a resize.

• Fixed case where thumbnails for unselected items were not being shown in Item List view.

• Fixed case where saving figure with strand-based hair would cause instability.

• Re-enabled partner content search (OS X only). Material Room

• Now drawing dotted wires for connections between lighting nodes and non-closure accepting inputs.

• Fixed a problem where animated status of shader node inputs were lost when switching rooms.

Preview Rendering

• Improved drawing performance of subdivided objects.

• Improved OpenGL preview of PhysicalSurface node.

• Improved Raytrace Preview robustness.

Final Rendering

• SuperFly: Non-branched path tracing now renders with correct alpha channel

• SuperFly: Disabling camera visibility for an object now also makes it invisible when seen through transparent surfaces.

• SuperFly: Now ignoring degenerate triangles in tangent space normal map rendering to prevent freeze.

• SuperFly: Increased robustness when rendering the Edge Blend node.

• FireFly: Now correctly dealing with transparency when there are two PoserSurface nodes in a tree where the inactive one is opaque.

• FireFly: Anisotropic node now a closer match to Poser 10/Pro 2014. Figure Creation

• Fitting room: Fixed case where adjusting vertex weights during fitting would cause instability (Poser Pro only).

• Rig Symmetry: Enabled transfer of Force Limits setting.

• Pose Symmetry: Fixed case where Pose Symmetry > Left to Right did not work when IK was off.

• Copy Morphs From: Fixed case where transferring subdivision-level morphs would cause instability (Poser Pro only).

• Fixed case where scuplting subdivision-level morphs would cause mesh corruption (Poser Pro only).

Import/Export

• GoZ: Fixed configuration path folder permissions (Poser Pro only). PoserPython

• Added the following methods to ShaderNodeCompundData type: CreateNode(), DeleteNode(), AttachTreeNodes(), DetachTreeNode().

• Added isControlProp() method to check if a prop is a control prop.

• Fixed error in Documentation.py.

• Added material.DeleteLayer().

• OBJ import: Added option kImOptCodeSCALEABSOLUTE. If the kImOptCodeSCALEABSOLUTE option is non-zero, the percentage will be used as an absolute scale, rather than % of Poser figure size.

Thanks for heads up.

There is a business suit for Paul in the content update...

And Paul and Pauline plus their casal outfit are officially a merchant resource:

http://forum.runtimedna.com/showthread.php?103433-NEW-Poser-Update-11-0-2-31562-has-been-released-with-Content-Update-11-2-31562

Thanks for mentioning this.

Why is Smith MIcro being so silent about everything? I would have thought they'd send an e-mail to people who purchased the program that SR2 has been released instead of people finding out by accident in a forum group? Odd way to do business???????

SM put this out at rdna:- "I can't sneak anything past you people. We quietly put the updater on DLM and you guy go wild LOL.

The "official" release date is Monday. I was going to wait till then to announce this.

The big news in the content update is Paul gets his business suit. There are also some minor geometry fixes for Pauline's clothes (Extra groups removed) that won't impact morphs.

Yes we finally have the updated EULA. It turns out expressing the true spirit of a "Vendor Resource" is actually quite a challenge to express in legaleese new-speak.

As you saw in the release notes there are a LOT of bugfixes and improvements."

what about the library,there wasnt a fix for it

Sounds like it's almost ready to be sold to customers !

Thanks for the info.

It might be wishful thinking but the library does seem another step or two quicker

Just updated and got the following errors: Poser: Error importing the wxPython API DSON (which didn't work previously but only gave one error): ImportError: numpy.core.multiarray failed to import ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.

Reinstall 34bit DSON. Hopefully it will clear the errors. DSON does come as a 32- and 64-bit application; make sure you install the correct one to match your Poser version.

Thanks, I do have the correct bitness, however, what is the appropriate folder where DSON should be installed (or subfolder, etc.)?

Which Poser Version do you own? If it is only Poser 11, then you should be using DSON 32-bit; Poser 11 Pro, 64-bit. Regardless, DSON should be installed into your Poser.exe folder located in either Program Files/Program Files (x86). The exact path should be: Smith Micro>Poser 11>Runtime>Python>poserScripts>ScriptsMenu.

DSON should be in Python->addons and NOT in the path hborre mentions!

Thanks, because I did install it to the folder hborre recommends. Don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, just want to use G2 stuff in Poser 11.

Now, now, DIM installed this for me and that is the folder of preference. As a matter of fact, DIM installs into both places. Doesn't matter, the script still works either way.

Poser 11 and Poser 11 Pro are both 64-bit. http://my.smithmicro.com/Poser11andPoserPro11FeatureComparison_v6.pdf

I don't have that many problems with Poser 11. Sure, there were some bugs and I'm sure that there are some bugs left, but all in all, P11 works for me.

Poser 11 Works fine for me also. Very happy with it.

Is the” misaligned genesis 2 mouth” fixed also? If yes that would be a reason to buy Poser 11

Screencap on the 'misaligned Genesis 2 Mouth'. If I think what it is, there is a solution @ RuntimeDNA. For the life of me, I can't remember the thread offhand. The problem is generated by the DAZ Generation X script and the solution is a small file edit.

Thanks WandW. I may have favorite the thread but I'm not at my home computer right now.

Thanks WandW for the info, but I think I will stay with Poser 2014 until a simple to use fix is out

Sr2 "• Fixed case where thumbnails were not refreshing properly when replacing an old thumbnail with a new version."

I still get only black thumbnails if I save new materials and those aren't visible in the library at all, only if I locate to the folder.

And if I save a pose it uses a view from a camera that I don't use - so the figure with the pose it's only partial visible.

Anyone else having the same experiences or am I doing something wrong?

Still can't get DSON importer to work with Poser 11. I get the following error message: "Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:UsersPublicDocumentsMy DAZ 3D LibraryRuntimelibrariesCharacterDAZ PeopleDarius 6.py", line 1, in import dson.dzdsonimporter ImportError: No module named dson.dzdsonimporter." Tried both locations hborre and makis3d mentioned. My Poser 11 install is in C:program filessmith microposer 11.

Any help would be appreciated.

@Nukeboy: which path do you have in

Scripts->DSON Support->Importer Preferences

used for

Writable Runtime Folder

?

It should be that one, where Poser can create the companion files under an automatically created folder named auto_adapted.

Okay - I'm having a major issue I updated to Poser 11 Pro. Just did a fresh install of DSON 1.2.012.

Tried to import a figure - I get the following Error window : Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxpy__init__.py", line 8, in import crust File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxpycrust.py", line 15, in import editwindow File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxpyeditwindow.py", line 8, in from wx import stc File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxstc.py", line 10, in import stc ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

Looking at the advice to Nukeboy, I tried to set the Writable Runtime Folder to C:/Users/Public/Documents/My DAZ 3D Library/Runtime and got the following error text: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxpy__init__.py", line 8, in import crust File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxpycrust.py", line 15, in import editwindow File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxpyeditwindow.py", line 8, in from wx import stc File "C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 11RuntimePythonlibsite-packageswx-2.9.1-mswwxstc.py", line 10, in import _stc ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

Obviously I am having some problems. Any Idea?

And so I took the nuclear option to my problem - Uninstall DSON Uninstall Poser 11 Reinstall Poser 11 Reinstall DSON

It is not throwing the errors - though the first import is taking a long time..
