Poser Python Scripting F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2026 Mar 27 4:38 pm)

We now have a ProPack Section in the Poser FreeStuff.
Check out the new Poser Python Wish List thread. If you have an idea for a script, jot it down and maybe someone can write it. If you're looking to write a script, check out this thread for useful suggestions.

Also, check out the official Python site for interpreters, sample code, applications, cool links and debuggers. This is THE central site for Python.

You can now attach text files to your posts to pass around scripts. Just attach the script as a txt file like you would a jpg or gif. Since the forum will use a random name for the file in the link, you should give instructions on what the file name should be and where to install it. Its a good idea to usually put that info right in the script file as well.

When you use:

runPythonScript ":runtime:python:poserScripts:myscript.py"

it work as expected only if the file is located in the MAIN poser runtime folder. Is there a trick or anything to make it look in other runtime ?

You can try putting in the full path, but I always ensure that the script is with the runtime of the Poser installation that is running.

Thanks for the answer...

The problem is I need the relative path, because if I want to distribute a pose file with the runPythonScript tag inside, it must be relative...
