Hi, Slightly OT, but I was wondering if anyone had any experiences of combining poser with Maya? I'm trying to animate, and not having much luck, and I figure that if I'm going to learn I may as well learn properly. Why Maya? Well they did Final Fantasy (and Aki :) with it, so I figure it must be worth a try... From what I understand, Maya has an underlying skeleton, if this is so, is it possible to combine a Maya skeleton an a poser mesh, (for the skin) has anyone done it? anyone got any sample images or anims I could scope? I'm not giving up on poser, (especially when the longest render I ever had was 15 mins :) I just want to see what's possible, given posers limitations with animation. Anyone got any experience with poser and any other full blooded 3D animation package they'd care to share? later jb
