Guten tag!
DAZ Carrara 8 and 8.5 now have free patches that translate the interface into German.
Free webinar with a Poser expert
A free one-hour recorded-video webinar from Stefan Werner, Senior Software Engineer for Poser: “Getting the Most Out of Your Poser 3D Renders”…
“He demonstrates how to leverage the new and improved rendering features, including Subsurface Scattering, available in Poser 9 and Poser Pro 2012. Stefan also discusses how to optimize your render settings to master features such as depth-of-field, indirect light, and ambient occlusion. Learn why more isn’t necessarily better when it comes to rendering, and find the perfect balance between quality and performance.”
Plant Factory Producer
There’s now a free Personal Learning Edition of the new Plant Factory Producer, from the makers of 3D landscape software Vue. It’s a…
“3D vegetation modeling, animation and rendering software [to create] fully custom intricate 3D plant models.”
Users of free never-expires version can apparently…
* Create complete projects and save their work
* Export their plants to other applications as standard geometry [standard .OBJ, .FBX]
Like most Eon/Vue freebies it’s also heavily crippled. Model exports are crippled in the free version because…
“Exported geometry removes 1 polygon out of 5”.
Although I’m guesing that those willing to experiment with smoothing (3DXchange), repairing (PolyTrans), remeshing by adding polys (I think the latest Poser can do that) or decimating (DAZ Decimator) the .OBJ models might make the plants acceptable for middle-distance use in DAZ or Poser?
Frisk-a-tron
Just what every Christmas party needs, a cool Frisk-a-tron machine instead of some ugly bouncers on the door. Free, for Poser and Daz Studio…
New Mr. Sparky freebies
Nice retro Mind Chair Book for DAZ Studio or Poser, free from Mr. Sparky…
Plus a nice toon-style steampunk Red Tape Generator, for use with Dr. Pitterbill or other semi-toon characters, also free…
Lecture time
A usefully realistic 500-seat lecture theater in Poser runtime format and OBJ, for free.
PZDB free upgrades – now supports new DAZ file types
If, like me, you use the excellent PZDB (my review) to find and load DAZ 3D and Poser content, then you’ll be interested to hear that there’s now a free upgrade patch from Rocketship.
Get PzDB 1.2.5. Warning: you will need to do a full reindex of your 3d collection after patching, so don’t update just before you start in on a deadline job.
It now supports those pesky new types of DAZ files…
“PzDB 1.2.5 now indexes and supports all current DAZ Studio filetypes, in addition, DAZ Studio files are now sorted among PzDB Categories as follows: DAZ files are still DAZ Scenes; DS, DSB, DSE, DSA, DSX and now DUF and DSF files are listed as DAZ Scripts; DSO, DSD, and DSVs are considered Geometries; DSI, DCB, and DBMs are listed as Materials; DBC is a Camera; and a DBL is a Light.”
It can also now double as an entertainment media index, since it now supports…
“AVI, MPG, MP4, MOV, and WMV files and … MP3, WAV, WMA, and FLAC files”
PzDB 1.3 Beta Testing has also started…
“The PzDB 1.3 Public Beta Test is open to all PzDB 1.X Licensees.”
S. Cargo

“Man Morph” turns Nursoda’s Frankie the Pig into a stylised man…
And “Black Doctor” turns Nursoda’s Doctor Pitterbill into a sort of dodgy back-street chemist / drug-dealer…
Super computer
A nice free 1970s style retro super-computer for Poser, from Sparky. Could be useful as a background for a old pulp magazine cover render with semi-toon characters, such as Dr. Pitterbill.
Eduard’s Armoured Toon Dragon
Cute free Toon Dragon for Poser. Standalone, for non-commercial use only.

Cute Drosell – free robo character
New free robo character over at FoRender, for Poser and Daz…
Keep in mind that this is based off a famous Japanese cartoon character owned by Disney/Toei Animation Co., so can’t be used commercially unless you want Disney lawyers knocking on your door.
3D Art Direct #27
Available now, a new issue of 3D Art Direct magazine, the DAZ Studio or Poser -friendly 3D art magazine.
Free Poser-and-comics webinar
Booking now, a new free webinar from Smith Micro, “Using Poser to Create the Ground-Breaking Graphic Novel Anomaly“. With artist Brian Haberlin the creator (with writer Skip Brittenham) of Anomaly. The date is Thursday 28th of February 2013 (11am Pacific Time USA, 7pm UK Time).
“Anomaly is one of the most innovative and rousing epic adventures I’ve seen. This story of a team of explorers marooned on a distant planet marries action and ideas in spectacular fashion, and holds important lessons for our society today.” — Harrison Ford, actor.
“They have uncovered a shrewd world in Anomaly, one where simply fighting for survival is not enough. Loaded with offbeat characters and idiosyncratic socio-structures, Anomaly does a smashing job of bringing us back to the fundamentals of humanity.” — Ridley Scott, movie director.
