Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 02 3:16 pm)

We now have a ProPack Section in the Poser FreeStuff.
Check out the new Poser Python Wish List thread. If you have an idea for a script, jot it down and maybe someone can write it. If you're looking to write a script, check out this thread for useful suggestions.

Also, check out the official Python site for interpreters, sample code, applications, cool links and debuggers. This is THE central site for Python.

You can now attach text files to your posts to pass around scripts. Just attach the script as a txt file like you would a jpg or gif. Since the forum will use a random name for the file in the link, you should give instructions on what the file name should be and where to install it. Its a good idea to usually put that info right in the script file as well.

Subject: A newer version of the old SHADER SPIDER perhaps?

I have the source code. Been distracted lately, but have been trying to learn Python.

Is there a newer program like this in development, or one I have missed that currently exists?

Apparently ShaderSpider would not run past Poser 7, and may also have had trouble with Windows 7. It appears to have copied materials and "makes the MATs via a Python script", seemingly enabling Poser figures to be used in DAZ, back in the day? It also made partial or 'wedge' shaders, and library files for these. There was a free LE version which enabled everyone to load the partial shaders made with it.

So far as I know the PoseWorks scripts are public domain now, and you can do what you like with their code. I've not heard of any plan to revive ShaderSpider.
