Professional 3D Figure Design & Animation
Geared towards a multitude of production environments, Poser Pro offers professional-level application integration as well as a 64-Bit render engine and network rendering support. The Poser Pro bottom line – reduce design and production time and access thousands of rigged and textured models.
Better Integration with Professional Environments:
Realize the added benefit of quickly animating with Poser Pro’s pre-rigged characters inside of host applications such as Autodesk’s 3ds Max and Maya, and Maxon’s CINEMA 4D.
Maximum Flexibility:
The industry standard COLLADA™ data exchange format combined with content built specifically for Poser Pro greatly enhances the versatility of the already 30,000 plus 3D models available through www.ContentParadise.com.
Key Features:
- 64-Bit Render Engine
Poser Pro users will benefit from the network rendering and render queue capabilities, including background rendering, built on a 64-Bit render engine for incredible speed and quality.
- HDRI Export
Poser Pro creates even more realistic images with High Dynamic Range Image (HDRI) support for Image-Based-Lighting and textures.
- Normal Map Support
Poser Pro allows you to add high resolution 3D detail to any mesh through the use of normal mapping, producing better images, even with low to medium poly models.
- Hosting with PoserFusion
Realize the added benefit of using Poser Pro’s pre-rigged characters inside of host applications such as Autodesk’s 3ds Max and Maya®, and Maxon’s CINEMA 4D®.
- Network Rendering
Get the most out of your hardware and leverage your network to render massive scenes using the network render queue.
- Professional Animation
Create lifelike animations by combining multiple strands of action into one fluid animation using layers. Keyframes automate between poses.
New in Poser Pro:
3D Character Design
Generating 3D character content is easy with Poser Pro. Use pre-rigged characters or create your own from imported geometries. Poser Pro’s list of standard features include inverse kinematics, morph targets, morphing brushes, deformers, facial expressions, face room photo-matching technology, automatic lip-syncing, dynamic cloth and hair, layered animation with multiple interpolation methods, production environment character rigging system and bending technology, normal mapping, and a hybrid REYES rendering engine with real-time OpenGL interactive previews.
Create and combine morph targets.
Integrating Poser Scenes
Poser Pro is a character animation solution for 3ds Max, Maya and CINEMA 4D or any 3D application with COLLADA support. COLLADA I/O and included PoserFusion plug-ins allow you to open and host Poser scene files and 3D content within production environment applications. Integrate static or animated Poser Pro scenes with these powerful 3D tools for increased productivity and instant access to the vast libraries and marketplace of pre-built, pre-rigged, and textured Poser character content.
Rendering Enhancements
Poser Pro introduces the Network Render Queue and Queue Manager, with time saving background rendering. The hybrid Firefly Render Engine is a multi-thread 64-Bit REYES renderer with raytracing for production quality photorealism with image based lighting and ambient occlusion. The material editing system allows users to automatically create complicated node-based Materials with one touch wacros, or manually connect math, lighting, variable, 2D texture and 3D texture nodes for limitless potential.
Pose in 3D space with multiple cameras.
Included Content
Poser Pro unveils an innovative concept providing four new human characters that can be modified and re-distributed. In addition, content libraries are also stocked with over a hundred items, all ready to drop into your scene, including the legacy content from both Poser 6 and Poser 7.
Enhanced Image Control
Gamma Correction lets you specify gamma and apply those values to textures and exported images for linear rendering with increased luminance accuracy. This means, what you see on-screen is what you’ll get in your final output. For vivid, life-like images with the full range of brightness detail and shadow depth Poser Pro optimizes renders for High Dynamic Range (HDR) output. HDR images can be exported in Radiance (.hdr) or OpenEXR (.exr) format for full control over the luminosity, opacity and reflectance range of your work. HDR output supports precision and flexibility in post production.
