Making couples poses and animations

Hi,

I have been using Poser to make poses and animations for my furniture. Now I want to make some dance and still poses for couples.

I have tried using Poser to create two models and then merge them after upload using poseballs. While that works, getting the two avs to look like they are supposed to be together is not easy since I am working with two different files.

Is this (using two files, uploading each, and then using poseballs to line up the avs in SL) the right approach for making couples poses? Is there an easier way - perhaps put both avs into the same file and then separate them when I want to upload?

Thanks -2fast

Make the file with the 2 people in it, save it as .pz3 or whatever the native file type for the program your using..

When you get done with it and are ready to export it to bvh. Delete one person, export the Man.bvh.. Open the .pz3 again. Delete the other person, export that to Woman.bvh..

Cool...thanks! Sounds much easier.

That is more steps then you need. Make the file with 2 people in it. Select one figure and export the BVH then select the other figure and export the BVH.

Excellent..*much* easier...Thank you!

Thanks to all that replied

Ahh didn't realize it only exported the selected figure. Good to know..
Pretty cool when you try to help with something and wind up learning an even better way yourself from a nice polite citizen.. Yay forums..

Thanks Luth..

And how about the poseballs themselves? How do you do couples poseballs?

Sorry for the thread necromancy, but I don't know where to ask this.
