BJ Pose Zone (Commercial)

bluejaunte

The BJ Pose Zone plugin allows you to combine poses and partial poses of all Genesis figures in an intuitive way. Simply drag and drop poses from the Content Library, BJ Shelf or the Recent Poses area onto the desired zone. The pose will be converted on the fly and you can combine at will without ever having to worry about figure generation, locking and unlocking body parts or other shenanigans.

Additional useful utility functions can be found in the Right-click menu of each zone. Flip, mirror or reset only the the body parts you want, or reset expressions on the head.

Start combining poses the way it was meant to be!

This looks amazing!  But I'm afraid to ask, will it work on a Mac?

Sadly not. I need a Mac, can't afford one. Now even less (they just increased pricing right).

Hmm, that's what I was afraid of.  Oh well, maybe one day!  Thanks for letting me know! ^_^

Looks interesting. Will it work in Daz 4.24, or is it just a Daz 6 thing?

Sure both.

In the immortal words of early 5 Seconds of Summer: Take my money!

But for serious, this will be mine day one. Your plugins make my life SO much easier. I don't know how I ever functioned without them!

Great to hear, thanks. I needed that

This is a plugin, so I assume this display is not a dialog. It's a panel, right?

It is a pane that you can keep visible as long as you want to. You can dock it or leave it floating like any other pane. Plugins are great!

Dang, I can see a lot of bone minions out of work soon.

This looks like a God send. Awaiting release in anticipation.....

 

BTW, how do I get a hold of your other plugins? There's none showing in your Daz store.

Maybe you have some filters set. I checked in another browser logged out and nothing set and everything shows up fine. https://www.daz3d.com/bluejaunte

Oops, still has duf format selected.....

 

I assume they all work in DS4? I have no interest in the unstable DS6 at the moment.

Of course, DS6 updates have all been submitted but are not live yet.

Indeed! About time, [my goodness].

 bluejaunte, you just revolutionized my posing workflow! This plugin is a total gamechanger! I'll be able to get the poses I want in a fraction of the time I always spend on that task. I knew as soon as I saw it in the store today that I needed to have it immediately. I spend an embarrassing amount of time cobbling poses together and running conversion scripts. You're amazing! Thank you so, so much for this tool!

Aww thanks so much, that makes me happy 

bluejaunte

If you do a lot of posing you might want to keep an eye on this too: find it on Patreon.

I would say that has even more revolutionizing potential :)

I have edited the post to comply with forum rules, as I have now launched paid tiers.

I picked up Pose Zone this morning and wow is it ever fantastic. I honestly never considered how much time I spent combining poses but this really simplifies it and the fact that it works on other generations is brilliant. Like your Shelf Plugin, I wasn't sure how much I'd use it but it really is something I can't see myself living without going forward. Great work :D

Thanks! Glad it helps. Yeah always bothered me to have to jump through hoops. Trying to lock parts but then things I didn't want to move moved anyway and then unlocking  again and locking some other stuff and all the bother with figure generations. Just tedious.

This looks great,. and I'll be buying it in a minute, Amongst many other things, it looks like it will solve most of my problems with pose sets that have things saved in the poses that shouldn't be there. But with respect to that 'most', if you consider updating with more features, could you consider adding an option NOT to apply overall and bodypart scaling values from poses? Thanks.

I'm skipping all scaling completely. Don't see why a pose would include scaling. That's more of a shaping thing to me. Sorry pose creators, I guess. My tool, my rule!

Thanks to having a bit of money left over this month, I was able to pick this up as a new release. It's pretty cool not having to worry about which Genesis the poses were made for. Some need adjusting, but I can get close to a pose I want a lot faster than trying to pose everything manually. I have another pose product that's a script. It lets me apply parts of poses to different body parts too, but it's restricted to poses made for whatever Genesis generation I'm using. It also isn't as fast as this since this is a plugin and doesn't need to be called up like a script does each time. This will definitely be my go-to tool for using library poses now. Now I just wish I had an easy way to see all the poses I have in one big list without having to switch through a bunch of folders lol.

Smart Content > Files Tab > Poses maybe? Can't drop them onto zones from here though.

But you can find the pose you want in Smart Content Files and right click Show Asset in Mapped Folder. Then you can select the pose in the Content Library tab and drag it onto the desired zone. It works great that way for me.

 Yeah, I noticed you couldn't drag from smart content right away lol. Thanks for the tips though. I didn't think about showing asset in mapped folder. That will help.

very impressive. Looking foreward to this release.

Amazing work. This and your Shelf are the two most game-changing products I have when it comes to enhancing my workflow--and I bought this on the first day solely due to how much I love the Shelf.

About the only two things I wish it did have that it currently doesn't are the capability of using hierarchical poses and that of converting animations, both of which could be great future add-ons if you choose to sell them as such (and I do have Bone Minion to fill the "gaps," so it's not a terrible loss that the plug-in doesn't deal with that). Honestly, I didn't know how much I would love not having to go back and forth between converters for different generations or the sheer convenience of this being drag-and-drop. Genius design.

(I'm also salivating at your fast posing solution after spending the last month trying to optimize  Daz's lag in that regard, so... yeah. There's that.)

Thanks, great to hear! What also doesn't work is poses in Wearable presets at the moment. Hierarchical poses, not really sure how that would work other than probably just skipping stuff that doesn't exist. Like a geograft would obviously not exist on the other figure generation so what am I supposed to pose right. Animations would probably be a bad fit for this product due to how it works technically. Wrong name too.
