Description
PoserFile Save is a Poser file
correction utility... with a novel approach.
It allows Poser files to be saved
correctly the first time, without requiring them to be manually
corrected or run through batch utilities.
PoserFile Save works as an alternate
save dialog from within Poser. It can be accessed via the Scripts
menu, the python palette or via a docking utility panel (Poser 8 and
higher).
It is rather intuitive and knows what
to save and where to save it, based on what is selected in the scene.
It remembers folders that you have used prior, such as figure, hair,
prop, light, camera and geometry locations. When options are
available, it asks the user what to do using familiar Poser-styled
dialogs.
PoserFile Save also has several tricks
up its sleeve, allowing you to save Super-Conforming clothing, save
figures as clothing, and convert head props to prop hair.
This utility handles:
Standalone Figures (.cr2)
Conforming Clothing (.cr2)
Standalone Props (.pp2)
Smart Props (.pp2)
Prop Hair (.hr2)
Lights (.lt2)
Cameras (.cm2)
Features:
General Correction Features:
Version Number is set to 6.
Figure References are set to 1
(Figure 1, :1, etc.).
Removes Control Prop
object.
Removes Preview Material
if not found a viable material zone in the Figure or Prop’s
Geometry.
Conforming Clothing can be saved
as Super-Conforming.
Repairs 180 blowout on
Conforming Clothing.
Conforming Clothing has IK
(Inverse Kinematics) removed.
Cleans up Binary Morph leftovers
in Figure and Props, particularly when going from one style of
saving morphs to the other.
Changes compressed .obz
references to .obj.
Rounding of morph deltas in
figures and props to produce slimmer files. Defaults to 6 decimal
places. This option is off
by default.
Can
remove dial limits when saving clothing. This option is off
by default.
Detects and saves Poser library
files based on what is selected and how it is presented in the
scene. For example:
Figures can be saved as a
Conforming Clothing item or Standalone Figure.
Clothing conformed to a figure is
understood to be Conforming Clothing and can be saved along
with certain features, like Super-Conforming, removing IK and
fixing blowout issues.
Props (and Prop Hair) are saved
with Embedded Geometry removed and saved to a folder of your
choosing.
Lights can be saved as single
lights or light sets.
Cameras can be individually
saved, with or without Poser's undo system affecting the saved
camera.
Binary Morphs are supported.
Deformers attached to or
embedded in Figures and Props are supported and saved along with
the Poser library file.
Initially attempts to use the
folders in your currently selected Library Runtime (Poser 8
and higher). After using the utility, it remembers the last
Figure, Prop, Hair, Light, Camera and Geometry you used when saving.
PoserFile Save can be accessed
in many ways:
Launched from Poser’s Scripts
menu.
Sent to and launched from the
Python Palette.
Launched via a docking Panel
(PoserFile Save Panel) in the Poser UI (Poser 8 and higher).
PoserFile Save Panel can be
used to launch PoserFile Save and has the following features:
Click and launch.
Right click to Edit the
Configuration for PoserFile Save.
Supports other PoserFile
Assistant utilities via a right-click Plugin menu.
Cross-supports Shaderworks
Library Manager (any version, Poser 8 and higher), allowing you to
launch it from the Plugin menu.
Graphic style similar to Poser’s
Library buttons.
Can be docked into the UI.
Can be aligned to top, bottom,
right or left.
Highlights on mouseover in
Windows.
Once docked, can be quickly
floated by control-clicking the button (command key on Mac).
The behavior and features of
PoserFile Save can be altered or tailored to how you work via a
configuration text file. The file can be hand-edited and is
presented in a way that is user readable and easy to understand. An
additional script is provided to quickly open this in your text
editor of choice. The following features can be changed (all using
“true” or “false” statements):

Additional Notes:
Caveats:
PoserFile Save cannot save
multiple Props at one time unless they are attached to a Figure, in
which case they can be saved with the figure. It’s also an all
or nothing scenario.
When saving Grouped Figures
(clothing along with a Figure), the following features are not
available:
Figure Reference correction
Correcting 180 Blowout
Super-Conforming will not be
offered as an option if Props or other Figures are attached to a
Clothing (or a Figure designated as Clothing).
When saving Single Figures with
Props or other Figures attached (conformed or parented), PoserFile
Save will detach them prior to saving them reattach them afterward.
This may have the effect of zeroing morphs and other dials on the
attached Props or Figures.
Writing Poses, Expressions and
Material Files are not supported. These types of things are already
handled by more robust utilities Netherworks Studios offers.
File Compression should be turned
off in Poser when using this utility.
