~Multimedia Poser Tutorial 1~

Yay!! 100,000 page hits!!

**IMPORTANT**
You will need Adobe "Flash Player 10", so make sure to upgrade your player to the latest version or else the tutorial might not run at all. Updating your Flash player is very easy - just go here [link] and get it installed. If you can press a button, you can do it!

Want to get started with the 3D program I used to create my entire dA gallery? Here is your chance! This is an easy to follow interactive multimedia presentation that will give you step-by-step instructions to help you learn the Poser 7 basic concepts and functionality.

The tutorial covers the basics such as configuring the 3D workspace, loading figures, posing them, loading clothes, conforming clothes to figures, using materials, hair, lights, cameras, and much more. I wrote about 13 chapters for this tutorial, and you will be asked which ones you want to see, so you can skip chapters whenever you want. Each chapter is loaded with notes and hints that might help you get the best out of Poser 7.

This is my very first tutorial and I don't have a clue how useful it will be to you, so feedback is important if you want it to improve. This was designed for you to use side by side with Poser, so you can follow the instructions hands-on directly in the program. This was NOT meant to teach you how to use Poser without the program. For that I would have to go insane with screen-caps and the tutorial would be come too large to be practical. As it is now it is about 750Kb, which is not bad for 13 interactive multimedia chapters.

As a side note, people have asked me to create a tutorial about how to get started with Poser, but I never gave it much thought until I've learned Flash programming. A Poser tutorial would otherwise be too much work to do with plain HTML on a web page, but with AS3 (ActionScript3) it's a different story. Not only I can present much more information in a single area, but I can also make it multimedia and interactive.

Instead of fiddling with rather painful Flash timelines, I decided to use my "AGE-4" game engine (written entirely in AS3) and create a tutorial that runs like a Japanese graphic novel. I don't think anybody has done that before (that I know of). This way, creating the tutorial was a matter of writing a text script for my AGE-4 game engine and let it generate the interactive multimedia presentation for me. So in the end, no painful Flash timelines were used (yay!!). ^^

All AS3 programming here was created 100% by me from scratch, including the "AGE-4" game engine that was used to create this tutorial. The "Ken" 3D avatar shown in this tutorial was designed by me, 3D clothing created by me, and figure is AnimeDoll by MayaX. A Spanish version is coming next, kindly translated by ~villena-mx directly from Mexico! Many thanks to him for the Spanish translation collab work! ^__^

Hope you like and thanks for coming by!
