Re: Example of poser in CS3---- warning nudity !!! 2003-12-17 - By annephorcy@(protected)
Back All claims to modesty aside, I think you can do some very nice things with Poser 5 and Carrara CS3. (I've uploaded a fairly simple example of my own - "Portrait1" - into the files section.)
Poser figures work just well enough in Carrara that you *can* successfully merge the two programs. *But you can't do it easily.* There's a lot of trial and error involved in making things work correctly. The devil is in the details. The two programs have significantly different approaches to the way some fundamental things work. Transparancies springs to mind. One program sees solid white as transparent, the other sees solid black as transparent. So, if you want transparancies to work correctly you spend a lot of time with Photoshop inverting B&W images. (For some reason Carrara's 'invert' checkbox doesn't seem to work very well.)
Worse yet, some of Poser's strongest features - the elegant Hair Room products and dynamic clothing - don't translate at all to Carrara. (Or, I'm told, to many other programs either.)
At this point, *if* someone ever takes the bull by the horns and produces a "Poser Plug-in" for Carrara, I predict that you'll be seeing a lot of really impressive artwork coming out of a marriage between these two programs. Until then, you can still "do the art", you just have to work at it.
