Talk:Software

Don't know whether to start listing software that needs other software to be usable with DS or Poser...


 * Elefont
 * create 3D text objects from TTF fonts - generates DXF files (use Bryce to convert to DS format, or PoseRay to convert to OBJ)
 * http://www.armanisoft.ch/elefont/Elefont.html

The MDD importer is mentioned in this blog, including a dl-link, but got no clue if it is the real thing.... http://bouyke.hatenablog.com/entry/2015/06/16/203249 --Glaseye (talk) 13:54, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
 * MDD broken link

Just noticed it is also mentioned further down the list, for importing Miku Miku Dance dolls to D|S (no idea what those are ... )--Glaseye (talk) 13:58, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Formatting the page to clarify software specs/requirements
This page is a good resource for finding needed programs. I had a few ideas for how we could potentially reorganize it so that readers can more quickly find software that's relevant to them. (If anyone is confused on how it might look, or if there's general support, I can create some mockups in a sandbox.)


 * Plugins vs. standalone programs: Some software listed on the page are plugins that operate within DS or Poser, while others are programs that run independently. We could create section subheaders for plugins and independent programs so that users can identify the right option for them.
 * Operating system compatibility: Not all listed software states whether it's compatible with Windows and/or Mac. By standardizing the list so that each program lists compatible operating systems, users can search the page for their respective OS, which makes it easier for them to find software that they can use.
 * Plugins are less likely to require a specific operating system, since they run from within another program. If we separate plugins from standalone programs, plugins could use a "required software/for use with" label, and programs could use a "compatible operating system" label.
