I can't remember if you need the OBJ file I think you do. If that is
the case then It might be possible to get a loan of one somewhere, for
evaluation purposes.

Mayadoll has her own, not sure how to describe the others, probably as
morph targets, where the base mesh is modified into a different
character. Google Studio Maya should get you there. Hair that renders
nicely in POV is also available there. If you can't find it, I can post
a link, but I don't go there often. There are many variations on
Mayadoll available, all asian and all free. Lots of links there, also
clothing, in limited numbers.
For ShiJie, DAZ|Studio does not require or recognize an accelerator, nor
does Poser. Studio seems more stable, but neither of them render fast.
PoseRay does convert them nicely, but you'll have to do some playing
with transparency levels on the eye textures. Not sure, but it's almost
like the textures are behind the outer layer, which in poser renders as
transparent, but reflective to give the look of moist eyes.
There are a lot of problems with all of the 3D humanoids, joints don't
move as they should, and postwork is the order of the day if they are
bent very far. The DAZ figures have dials to correct for this, but
working with humans is more frustrating than any machine I've done in
POV SDL.

Thanks again, I found it and downloaded some things. I will experiment
with them soon. At the moment I am working on a decanter with photons
but have a poser project in mind.
It is a pity that this thread was not started in p.t.poser as it has
some interesting info for Poser users.
Regards
Stephen

DAZ Studio needs OpenGL and it is optimized for NVIDIA cards. See the
requirements at the bottom of this page
http://www.daz3d.com/studio/
So you may get it to work if at least you have the latest drivers for
your on-board video and that they support OpenGL properly.
Good luck,

There is also this Plugin for Blender:
MakeHuman 2.0, a free Blender plugin to quick and easy modeling of humanoid
3d models.
It is still in pre-alpha, but the screenshots looks interestings.

Nice thing. Has anybody ever seen a link to a tutorial on creating human
faces in HAMA- or sPatch ?

Anto Matkovic created a tutorial about 6 or 7 years ago about modelling
human faces/heads in sPatch, and different approaches that can be used
(starting from the eyes/mouth/ears, how to do eyes, etc). Even all those
years ago I was able to come up with reasonable models using that method
(now that I'm older I'm sure I could do a vastly better job).
Unfortunately, that site is long gone, although he does have a new website
at www.matkovic.com (and some of the images on there I remember from his old
site). My advice would be to contact him and see if he has the file
headmod.zip (which contained the tutorial HTML files and images) on his
harddrive somewhere. I found his old site in the Internet Archive
WayBackMachine but as the tutorial was provided in a zip the file it's not
available through the archive (the archive only contains HTML/images/etc)...
but if you want, go to www.archive.org and enter the following address into
the WayBackMachine for the sake of sentimentalism:
http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/7415/
I just found one of the old models on a CD which I'd made at that time using
a method described by Anto in his tutorial. It's pretty bad but I guess OK
for a 14 year old, heh.

As it turns out, I should have read the rest of the thread: everyone else is
already talking about Anto's sPatch models! Anyway, I hope the info in my
post provides a little bit more info regarding his tutorials.
I decided to chuck the model I made back then into a file and render it
again for laughs. I've posted it in povray.binaries.images under the title
"Old sPatch head model - Re: Modelling/rendering humans"
Ah, those were the days.
