Well... I suppose I take my wishes for reality :-) Still, strangely enough,
there is something gnawing at the back of my mind. Kind of hunch...

Interesting. I didn't know about DAZ. When I get the time, maybe I will try to
create bones for LDraw figures so that they can be posed like they are in many
Lego software. (This is one of the major disadvantages of LDraw.)

You make me think O_O
Maybe changing the animation frame rate in Poser will change the gravity
setting(?).
The higher the frame rate the lower the gravity. Does that make sense?
I'll do some testing after I've finished my current animation.

Change the cloth density. It can effectively change the gravity down to
almost zero.

Cloth density is one of the parameters that I have difficulty using. Where can
you find which cloths weigh what? The gsm of cotton is easy to find but other
materials are more difficult :(
Later I will experiment.
Thanks for the suggestion, FlyerX.

Here's another question: if I were to create the bones and keyframes using one
of these tools, could I then export the animation data back into POV?

Knowing what a cloth weights is not enough as you have to translate that
info somehow to Poser parameter values. Also, I find that the density
settings work better in *reverse*! What I mean is: *high* density results in
a *light* cloth behaviour; *low* density results in *heavy* or *stiff*
behaviour. Very weird...
I think this tutorial page will help:
http://my.smithmicro.com/tutorials/2313.html but see also the other pages.
Very helpful.

Thanks, Thomas that looks very useful. A good starting point.

I wanted to do something like this for my Habitable Planet macro (see the Object
Collection). I also wanted to accurately add rivers and and other types of
falling whater based on this information. However it is something that I think
lies beyond my abilities.

I am afraid I cannot answer this question as I have too little experience
(yet) with bones and bone manipulation.
Exporting a Poser animation back into POV... I am not sure how to do that
efficiently. Again, my experience with animations is too small as I only use
stills.
Sorry for this.
