Hya,
Just downloaded a lot of stuff with the new poser update Baby Luna, Hivewire horse etc.
The only thing where the joints work correctly is the dwarf.
The other (non figure) stuff looks a bit rubbishy except maybe for Fink's flowers.
I wondered if I missed any gems in it?
Also is there a way of getting the new poser stuff to work in Carrara properly? (is fix joints).
Any joy with Fenric's plugi? or a waste of time??

The Bugatti car I used in the NPR thread is in the props/vehicles.
Also the Desert terrain I used in Stezza's Lorenzo thread is 3S_DrylandExpanse byShaaraMuse3D.
Overall am very happy with all of the extras and will find a render for them sometime, except for Luna, Dawn, Dusk, & Le Femme - I have enough figure options without them.
you need to use the DAZ studio versions
I have not grabbed my Poser update yet but own most of the stuff and the dufs all work in Carrara out the box
Shaders on some of the items need a bit of work but that's Par for the course !

I've got Poser 2012 for a song quite a few years ago, nothing impresses me to upgrade to the latest untill it only costs about $20
so I'm no help other than the HW3D poser stuff doesn't work in Carrara you need as Wenday says the DS versions...
but from what I hear Ross is really happy
ah thanks Wendy el Bunyip et Stezza - Bunyip nice renders thanks.!!! that dryland looks good
as for the daz versions - they don't seem to be included in the downloads that I can see?
PS Stezza, who is Ross?
Moroccan Dream - is a bit ordinary for photo-realistic, but scrubs up nicely for NPR. It also has Cactus & Palm trees suitable for kit-bashing.
Only Poser downloads as far as I could find.
Ross is a marketing gimmick over at Rendo.
some dude out there in 3d land lol
Yep, that's the culprit !!!
lol I think he's Italian

My edition of Poser is Poser Pro 2014. I still use Poser 7 figures from time to time because they work in Carrara and I have some cool historical and occupational content for them. Confusingly, the Poser 7 Sydney and Simon figures were called G2 figures. This is confusing for me because I also use Daz3D's Michael 6 and Victoria 6 characters, which are also called G2 figures.
I experimented with some Poser figures with the newer weightmapping (Poser 9 and above). The figures were called Miki and Tyler. I used Fenric's injection plugin with limited success. Problems with the feet persisted (what is it about feet?). I think Fenric said it had something to do with the hierarchy of the figures being messed up. Don't remember clearly. There is probably a related thread here in the Carrara forums because I remember asking about it.

I better download my update
lots more stuffs than I realised
Does anyone use Poser's other features as a plugin for Carrara?
eg., new features in Poser Pro 11? draping cloth and exporting obj? rigging a figure for use in Carrara? wardrobe wizard to convert a mesh to conforming clothing? other?
Wondering if I would benefit from upgrading to Poser Pro 11
EDIT - upgrade for me is not free, think about $100, USD.
has a good FBX import, you could save your Carrara models as cr2
and those load in DAZ studio and can be converted to weightmapping
I cannot recall if you have done that with the previous one already
so many people I have told
the poser 5 family are lost in space
Thanks!
Ominous, but prudent.
another great render Bunyip!
greetings

I have bouight several of the last versions mainly for the cloth room and the fitting room and to try the NPR/cartoon render engine
Of course with VWD cloth room is now antiquated - the fitting room wasn't too bad but finicky, the NPR render engine required you to be au fait with scene setup in poser - so I never went far with that
The other thing poser was good for was tweaking fallo off zones in cloth that I had xdressed - but I rarely do that anymore
I also bought the last one because you could take eg M4 and K4 and combine them into a new figure - but it the wrong type of weight painting - so that was usueall to bring it inot carrara
Unless they bring out something universely mind-shattering in the next installment I can't see myself buying Poser - unless everything from poser could be brought over to carrara seamlessly - as it has been n the past
If there was a way I'd gift my Poser 11.2 to someone that needs it, as I have no intention of installing it.
well I guess you could as you have a serial, would need to ask
Thanks, a couple more.

I got the Poser 11 Pro as an upgrade from Poser Debut & Poser 9.
Will mainly use it for the cr2 files Wendy is talking about, using "prop" clothing, materials folder, will also try rigging to see how that compares to Carrara/DAZ Studio rigging for me. Might check out some of the other uses now that I have the Pro version instead of a base version. Carrara will remain my main working platform - DAZ Studio & Poser are "plugins".
The 2nd Poser Pro 11 update has quite a few goodies with it, would imagine that they would cost a bit if you bought them independently. The Bugatti car costs $15.00 alone.
there are a lot of lovely props indeed by people like Dante
you should at least download those, its a huge haul and all should work in Carrara
