Poser 6
by Kneekick · in Torque Game Builder · 02/28/2006 (7:44 am) · 9 replies
Based on recommendations and posts I read on this forum I went out and bought Poser 6 last night and ran through the tutorial that comes with it.
Great program! Especially for someone like me who is a programmer and simply doesn't have the time to learn how to model in stuff like Blender or 3D Max.
Question for you guys that are into art and 3D modeling, how do you create props? Do you make them in Poser or do you use 3D modeling apps like Blender or 3D Max to make them and then import them into Poser?
Reason I'm asking is that I'm making a 2D football game (side scroller) and I want to create and animate the football players in Poser and then export the animation(s) to use in my game. I can't seem to find any football uniforms (helmet, shoulderpads, pants, etc...) in the libraries for Poser online. Granted I haven't looked everywhere.
Wondering if anyone here would be willing to do it or could point me to somewhere to buy it.

Aside from Daz 3D, you could also check Renderosity, Poser World, and Content Paradise.

I have been using Poser for about 10 year. I purchase Puppet Master: Bundle to go along with poser 6. It will allow you to transfer animation from one model to another very easliy. It work alot better than walk designer that come with poser. It will save you alot time and trouble. For $60.00 it you cant go wrong.

I forgot to say if you find any free obj and import them in poser 6 will convert them to a prop. If you bring them in the setup room they will be convert to figures.

Can someone give me a walk through on how to do this?

I have my animations done in Poser but I can't seem to accomplish what others here have done. I've read some other posts and it seems like other's are able to export each frame of an animation to individual .png's or .jpg's and then combine them all into one image to import into T2D.Can someone give me a walk through on how to do this?

Set the size of your animation,, in the Make Movie... dialog, select Image files as your format. Then use Photoshop, Gimp, etc to composite them into usable chunks to load in a single file (you do not have to, but for management's sake, it is easier).
