Hi,
ive done a bird in poser4 a while ago, and would like to user it in poser5, is there anything i have to take care of? What is the way to export it inclusive the skeleton? I didnt find it in the FAQ. I dont want to do all this bone stuff again. Can somebody please post a link to a tutorial?

thanx

You should be able to just use it as in P5...all the characters I have work just fine in P5, that were in P4.

Yes, even poser 3 figures work in poser 5.

Thanx for responding, but what i mean was how do i get the figure loaded? I havent found something like an "Import Charakter" option. What sort of file do i have to search for import - or better said where in the poser runtime folder do i have to search? OK. might be easy but i got no clue. Greetings Chiro

I'm a bit confused. If this is NOT an "offical" poser character, such as .lwo/.obj/.lwo then you go to file import & pick the appropiate file extension that matches the format in which you created the character. If this is a "real" poser character as in a CR2 or PP2 then you should find it in your figures folder, just like in P4, provided you've moved it there of course.

WEll if i just import the .obj file, then i dont have the skeleton, and have to do the boneing again. Better asked i think is: how do i have to save a selfmade Poser4 figur to make it acceseble to other people/ Poser Versions. grettings Chiro

Yikes, I think I might know...but won't answer because I'm not 100% sure. I'm only at about 70% sure, so I wouldn't want to mess you up :(

i just kopied the folder (Bird) from poser4 Runtime to poser 5 Runtime - it works without any problems - before i tried to do it via a kind of import option in the program, I didnt thought that its just simply done by copying.

Thanx anyway

Chiro
