Josie Sport Poses - "Where's the ball?" [SOLVED]

I wasn't going to get Josie at all, but the price kept coming down and together with my PC coupon I nabbed the Pro Bundle for less than a Fast Grab price. Anyway, 6 of the Josie Sport Poses include a ball pose - but I can't find the ball! I tried creating a sphere primitive and posing that - but no go. Now, in the grander scheme of things this is not really a problem and I won't have any difficulty placing any ball I might use, but the questions remain: either, "Where is the ball?" or, "How are the ball poses to be used?" :coolsmirk:

    It says in the description that it only has poses in the pack. So no ball included. I assume you would make your own ball using primitives or modeling one yourself.

    Well, yes. That is my point. The ball I created with a primitive didn't position itself anywhere near the ball as depicted in the pose icon. Curious. :-P

    Right, I think I've solved it. If you create a Primitive Sphere with a diameter of 1 meter and the Origin set at "Object Center" it will pose correctly and rescale the sphere to 31% (see attached). :lol:

    Have you tried creating the sphere at 0.31 rather than rescaling after.

    I'm happy you have solved :)

    Or change unit to Feet as 31% of a meter is 31 centimeter and a foot is approximately 30.48 centimeters.

    The pose script actually changes whatever size ball you have to 31%. So if I create a primitive sphere of 1 foot diameter it will resize it to about 3½ inches! My illustration above just shows that for Josie to be able to hold the ball under her arm any sphere you use must have a default size of 1 metre.
