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.

This is my first post to renderosity. I wrote a simple script to create make a character blink over an animation. This was to learn a little about python and poser. I also noticed that I could not put it into the free stuff because it wouldn't take the py file extension. I put it on a simple web site, you may need to cut and paste it out of the site. Let me know if it is interesting or useful.

I don't do much animation but I'll have to try this out to see the effect. I looked at the script and saw that you had a remark for checking to see if the blink parms are there. It doesn't look like there was any supporting code but that is something you will want add ( or maybe not ;-) ). The reason is that on Vicky2 the parms are called 'EyeBlinkR' and 'EyeBlinkL'. If someone runs the script as is on Vicky2, it will run but won't have an effect. It's pretty easy to implement by just scanning the MT parameters on the head looking for either Blink Left or EyeBlinkL and setting your parmL and parmR accordingly. One thing you can do if you want to post .py files to the free stuff area is put them in a WINZIP archive.

Thanks for the advice. I will work on it some and post it to the free stuff as a zip.

You can also change the extension from .py to .txt and leave instructions in the .py on how to install the file. Free stuff will accept txt files. You can also create a thread here and post the txt file like you would a paicture. Again change the extension name then put commented instructions in the file on how to install the file and rename it.
