Hi All:

I read a post that said in effect that there is a free version of Poser.
Could anyone point me in the right direction.  I don't have the money for
the latest version.

Thanks:

Kennon Ward

Poser 3 is frequently given away free with CGI-related magazines in the UK. I
don't know what the state-of-play is with other countries.

If you're desperate, send me an email...

What might have been discussed was DAZ|Studio, which is currently in some
sort of beta, but I don't think it's available to the general public yet.
http://www.daz3d.com/products/studio.php

From what has been discussed
(http://www.planit3d.com/source/reviews/Dazstudio1.htm), it may be a better
alternative to Poser for some things, but you would still have to purchase
models from somewhere (like DAZ3D).  If you can afford $20 or $30 at a time,
you could eventually build a library of models and clothes, etc.  For me, it
seems to be easier to spend $20 ten times over a long period than to
fork-out $200 all at once (I'm funny that way).

But, there is no OBJ export for DAZ|Studio at this point, so I'm not sure
how you would get it into POV-Ray.

If you go into decent book stores in the US, then odds are good they will 
will the UK magazines. Kind of annoys me though that other than one brief 
stint by a Canadian Magazine (whose CD autorun program was seriously 
buggy and sucked), all the magazines are from the UK and cost as much as 
$14 a piece. Buying a full version of Poser would cost less than a one 
year subscription to these things... lol You just have to keep an eye out 
at ones like Computer Arts, 3DWorld and CGI. Eventually one of those is 
bound to have a free version of something on them and Poser is one of 
those they tend to include occasionally.

I really have to recommend saving up for Poser5. It's worth the money. It's
worth the cost just to get their default figures alone, much less the
clothing and hair capabilities (I happen to be a fan of the hair
capabilities, but I've learned I'm in the minority on that).

Curious Labs has reduced their price of Poser 5, and Amazon has it for $169
today.  It fluctuates, for whatever reason.

You can also pick up Poser Artist (which is Poser 4), for under $100, if you
look around on the Web.

Or you can probably find it on Kazaa...  But that's not legal, therefore you
shouldn't do that, and neither should anyone else.

*cough*

Well, since no one else responded with a helpful answer, I'm pretty sure
that you're out of luck on this.

Some Googling reveals that there is apparently a German Language version
available for download, but that was all I noticed.

Try DAZ|Studio. It can do most what Poser 3 could (and some more). It eats 
Poser Objects and can spit out .obj files. You can download it from 
www.daz3d.com

I saw this thread and it sounded interesting.  Well, I tried.   I don't
think it's going to happen though.  I signed up at their site with my email
address and everything.  They require an email verification.  That'd work
better if I had their email in my inbox after almost 3 hours.  If you try
logging in anyway you get:

"Login Not Verified
You have not clicked the activation link that was emailed to you when you
registered.

If you would like to have the activation link resent, please enter your
email below."

So I've done that twice.  Nothing new in junk-mail either.

Hmmmmmm.  Frustrating.

It does work... their email is just very slow to come.
Next you "buy" Poser 5, then check out... and when starting to
download it states the server is overrun so please delay by a few
hours before trying again...

Thanks.  Do you know how long you have to get something downloaded (30 days
hopefully) after you "buy" it?  I've got a slow connection.

It's available indefinitely after you buy it.  Here's the response I get since their
servers are
busy: 

>>>snip>>>

Due the the high demand for the Poser 5 free download your download has been delayed
temporarily
please wait several hours before attempting to download again.
 
We apologize for the inconvenience however your Poser 5 free download will remain
available to you
through the MyStuff tab indefinitely.
