♥ PosetteForever ♥

Hi, <br /> I am very happy to be here. I learned of the great tutorials available here and when I looked in it looks like this may be one of the best Poser communities around! Thanks for letting me join. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/JC_howdy.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> I started with the head morph tutorial for Blender. If you are a Renderosity member you can see the result here: <br /> <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1582267" target="_blank">Posette Character Render on Rendo</a> <br /> <br /> If anyone can use this morph I'll post it on ShareCG. <br /> <br /> anycolorilike

Hi and welcome aboard. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" />

I saw an image showcasing your Posette morph in the 3DCommune gallery; she looks good. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Have you decided to share the morph? <br /> <br /> <br /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/happy8.gif" alt="" />

Hi, Thanks for the welcomes and feedback everyone. I wasn't subscribed to the thread because of my forum options and I don't know if this site sends email on replies so I didn't some back for a while. <br /> <br /> I would like to distribute the morph for Posette. She doesn't come with a blank CR2 file. This is my plan so far: <br /> <br /> * Import my morphed OBJ file. <br /> * Export a CR2 <br /> * Delete materials, and all other morphs with morph manager <br /> * Distribute Cr2. <br /> * Let people use Morph Manager to load the file. <br /> <br /> Is this legal and reasonable?

Hi and happy holidays anycolorilike <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/JC_howdy.gif" alt="" /> <br /> The steps you're describeing are a legal way <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" /> <br /> An other way to avoid copyright problems is to distribute a "crippled" .obj. <br /> If you export an obj from poser or most other 3D apps, the exported file contains parts of copyrighted mesh. <br /> If you open the .obj in a text editor, simply delete all the lines starting with "V". Poser itself dont need this lines to make it work as a morph, but other applications will fail loading it cos there's no actual mesh. <br /> I'm using this method for ditribution of single morphs. For morph sets, I prefere a "container" cr2, as you described above. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Sorry for my poor english <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/redembarrassed.gif" alt="" />

It's allways a pleasure to see ones work is useful for somebody <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> <br /> Welcome onboard anycolorilike!! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/JC_howdy.gif" alt="" />

Hi, Finally got this packaged. I don't know why but I kept screwing up and losing a file or picking the wrong file etc. You can see it in the uploads section. Enjoy! <br /> <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://www.posetteforever.com/dload.php?action=file&file_id=442">Janeisha morph</a>

When I had the head shape I wanted, I spawned a new morph target, set all the other dials to zero except the new morph, and exported Posette's head as an obj (in the Poser 4 export box the only box I had checked was "as morph target"). So now I have an obj file containing the morph target (I tested it by loading other Posettes and loading it as a morph, it works fine) and all the head geometry (the obj is around 500kb at the moment, so it obviously has way too much unnecesary stuff in it). <br /> <br /> I opened up a few other morph target objs I have downloaded in the past in a text editor (MS wordpad), including one by ahjah available in the free stuff area, and I see that they all contain <i>only</i> lines starting with "V" whereas the obj morph I made has v lines and all kinds of other lines like vt, vn, and many materials that have f lines. Based on this it seems to me that in the text editor I should delete everything <i>except</i> the v lines, but since I don't know what I'm doing and have very little experience editing obj files perhaps someone can set me straight about what to do. <br /> <br /> The only other info I was finding in a web search of the issue either dealt with making mor poses (wouldn't work in this case as it's a new morph as I understand things) or using external programs to make morphs, which seems unnecessary since the morph is already made. <br /> <br /> Thanks <br /> <br /> Endosphere <br /> <br /> p.s. Just to clarify, I'm talking about Metacreations' Poser 4's original Posette and not any newfangled commercial models. I'm positive all the morphs used in composing the new morph were free items because a) other than purchasing Poser 4 long ago I've never bought anything else; there's not a single purchased commercial Poser file on my hard drive, and b) I am now and have always been extremely conscientious about not downloading anything that even smells like warez. I was just now searching the forum at Renderosity, and while I couldn't find a single thread useful for how to do this (there were many that said "Check out the great tutorial at Morphworld," but of course Morphworld doesn't exist anymore) there were about a thousand threads composed by lawyers about the fine points of what is not allowed with their precious commercial models.

Hmm. Why now? Where did you get obj file containing the morph target he or she tested it by loading other Posettes and loading it as a morph it works fine and all the head geometry the obj is around 500kb at the moment so it obviously has way too much unnecesary stuff in it ?

I made the obj file, Posy. You don't need this obj file, because you are already very pretty. <br /> <br /> Endosphere

Do you need this obj file because you are already very pretty? If I had this obj file because you are already very pretty what would I do with it?

I don't need the obj file for myself. If you had the obj file you could start a charity group to help homely posettes. I think that would be a nice thing for you to do. <br /> <br /> Endosphere

Hi endosphere <br /> Yes, I made a mistake <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="" /> don't DELETE the V lines, KEEP them (don't forget to keep the original file as a backup, just in case...)

<span style="font-family:Arial;"> </span><span style="font-size:12px;"> </span><span style="color: black;"> </span> <br /> <br /> It's no big deal, ahjah. It seemed like things weren't adding up for me on how to do this so that's why I resurrected this thread. <br /> <br /> For future reference, if anyone wants information on how to distribute morph targets the right way, I finally found a very detailed explanation. Go to the free Internet Wayback Machine (<a class="post-url" href="http://www.archive.org/index.php" target="_blank">here</a>) and search for the now nonexistent article from Morphworld called "Morph Squishing" (use <a class="post-url" href="http://www.morphworld30.com/tutorials/squishing.html" target="_blank">www.morphworld30.com/tutorials/squishing.html</a> in the Wayback Machine). The article has all the necessary info. However, from what I was reading at another site site yesterday if you have a morph for any character made by that company that starts with "D" you'd better hire a team of lawyers and engineers to review your morph before sharing it with anyone. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/very_sad.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> Endosphere

Here you go. I thought I would help Endosphere out with the link. A really great learning tool as well as fined. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://web.archive.org/web/20020214045651/http://www.morphworld30.com/tutorials/squishing.html" target="_blank">http://web.archive.org/web/20020214.../squishing.html</a>
