Puppeteer 2.5.3 2004-06-03 - By Tony Owen
Back
I've tried 'em all, Raven, and they all come up short. Motion Studio
offers a great way to rig a character and blend motions and so forth,
But it had a tiresome tendency to mangle my meshes (although in some
cases, you could restore the mesh why selecting a saved pose. I was all
set to await version 2 (which I hoped would integrate the Scene Editor
so everything could be done in one place). I will certainly try (with
high hope) version 2 when it appears. Meanwhile, fitting a Puppeteer
skeleton to my mesh again resulted in mesh mangle, and when I tried to
'import' my own skeleton, the directions for doing so had no result.
When Greg Bassett gets back from vacation on the 7th, perhaps this can
be addressed. As I alluded to, Dream Weaver Pose Mixer is for tS4.
There's some odds and ends left like that nailer tsx, and maybe some
others but I need something that allows poses to be saved and copied.

Hi Rick,
the usual on this side of the pond is refund if returned in thirty days
(or
Small Claims Court for items or services under $1500). But I bought
Puppeteer with Anipak, so that's not an option. In someways, I look on
my 3D
related purchases as encouragement for the people that are developing
tools
for my core software (tS), but it's not going well. Alain Bellon tells
me
that he is not going to upgrade DM Poser Mixer, which would serve as an
alternative and Motion Studio development is taking a back seat to new
family demands.
That leaves me hoping for a miracle from tS7.
Tony
