Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Sep 18 2:50 am)
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: How to create Walk animation with Python script?
Is it just the fiddly repetition that you object to, setting up many figures with a walk? In that case recording a repeatable mouse-click macro (with the JitBit software or similar) might save you a lot of grunt-work or Python script-hacking. Note that Poser doesn't have a macro recorder (think "Photoshop's Actions") of its own.

Many years ago I found a Python called "WalkThisWay" it used a different approach. It didn't use walk designer at all. The way it functioned was to load a simple walking pose and then loop it. The script actually calculated the walk travel based on the movement of the feet.
I thought this was one of Ockham's but I can't find it on his site. I doubt it would even run in a current environment but it might be a starting point if anybody remembers who created that.
A bit more info about WalkThisWay, from a 2007 forum comment by Cage...
"It looks like Ockham's WalkThisWay.py, version 1, suffered from these same memory problems. He suggests that the problem is a Poser memory leak, specifically with Poser 5. WalkThisWay2 avoid the problem using heavy restructuring which seems to remove most of the collision or positioning comparison in WTW1. So apparently no real solution was found for the problem, but it may be that this shows that the problem is indeed Poser."

I want to create an animation that makes a person walk from one point to another.
For that purpose, I must be set "Walk Designer" and create Walk path.
Please tell me how to create it using python script.
