Visationfx Poolside (Update) copyright 2006 by Visationfx Product Title: Poolside Author: Mark Leuver Product Date: 09/11/2006 Product Copyright: 09/11/2006 -------------- All of this product's content was created by Mark Leuver -------------- Detailed Installation Instructions Extract the zip-archive with your zip program: - Open WinZip and press the button -Extract- - In the window -Folders/drives-, select the folder that contain your Poser program. (ex. c:\program files\Poser4\ ). - The check box -Use Folder names- must be marked. That way, all files will placed in the correct path. -------------- --------------- Usage Tips/Limitations This product has been designed to be used with all versions of Poser. Please note that loading all the props into the scene with the option of ray traced water and medium to high settings in the firefly renderer will require a high spec computer. If you are having problems obtaining a render then reduce the amount of props contained within the scene especially those not within the camera view. Using the P4 water prop may also help. -------------- Thank you for shopping at Visationfx Intro Another big bundle of props this time set up with a poolside theme. I have designed this set based on a typical layout that would be found at a luxury resort hotel. You have two pools to choose from a larger general purpose pool and a smaller sports pool complete with handball net. You also have the option of removing the bar area in the larger pool should that not be required. Basic Installation (IMPORTANT) Please install the product using the normal unzip procedure. In order for the props to work as intended(ie smart props) then bring in the poolbase and bar prop first. Any subsequent props added will now link to their respective parent. Note for Poser 4 and Pro Pack users (IMPORTANT Installation of Canvas Texture on Lounger Prop) Due to some programming differences between the rendering engines in Poser4 and Poser 5 the texture will not be assigned to the lounger prop. I wanted to include a seperate prop for P4 users but was unable to do this due to filesize restrictions. The prop will render the texture if you re-assign the canvas texture to the lounger in the material editor. Background Backgrounds are always a bit tricky so I have decide to create a backgound mapping plane and a texture. More advanced users may want to experiment with their own textures.The backgound can be rotated to match your point of view by using the appropriate slider. Props This model comes with a selection of props which will allow you to fine tune the model for your own requirements. I am aware that loading in all the props can be quite time consuming but the intentin is to allow users to have as much flexibility as possible in moving stuff around. I am also aware that some customers will have varying performance requirements so the ability to cut some objects out may prove useful. Textures I have included a lot more textures with this model. There are numerous textures available on the internet so again please feel free to use your own and experiment. apple.jpg - apple skin backdrop2.jpg - background banana.jpg - banana skin barroof.jpg - roof beer_1-TR.jpg - beer bottle 1 opacity beer_1.jpg - beer bottle 1 beer_2-TR.jpg - beer bottle 2 opacity beer_2.jpg - beer bottle 2 beer_3-TR.jpg - beer bottle 3 opacity beer_3.jpg - beer bottle 3 beer_4-TR.jpg - beer bottle 4 opacity beer_4.jpg - beer bottle 4 beerlogo.jpg - barpump beeropa.jpg - barpump opacity beigetile.jpg - poolside main floor area beigetile2.jpg - pool surround blustone.jpg - concrete texture board.jpg - bar ceiling canvas.jpg - lounger material cherry.jpg - cheery skin cork.jpeg - winebottle cork cork.jpg - bottle cork florbump.jpg - floor bumpmap grape.jpg - grape skin grapegreen.jpg - fruit texture ground-v.JPG - soil texture leaf-vfx.jpg - leaf texture lring.jpg - lifering texture lwood.jpg - bar surface mflor-vf.jpg - lifeguard tower floor netlines.jpg - sports pool net opacity1.jpg - bar roof opacity map orange.jpg - orange skin palm.tga - tree leaf texture pbark.jpg - tree bark pbark1.jpg - alternative tree bark pear.jpg - pear skin plum.jpg - plum skin poolripple.jpg - water texture (displacement) poolripple2.jpg - small pool (displacement) ptrans.jpg - leaf opacity ptreeb.jpg - bark bumpmap reed1.jpg - bar roof texture roof.jpg - lifeguard tower roof seat-vfx.jpg - chair texture stu-vfx.jpg - concrete texture tilebump.jpg - floortile bumpmap tow1-vf.jpg - towel 1 tow2-vf.jpg - towel 2 tow3-vf.jpg - towel 3 trunk1.jpg - tree material trunk2.jpg - tree material water2.jpg - big pool water texture water3.jpg - small water texture wbtxt.jpg - wine bottle opacity winlabel.jpg - wine bottle label winopa.jpg - wine bottle opacity wood.jpg - wood material Chrome004.jpg - chrome reflection map glassr.jpg - glass reflection map Water Prop Here you have the choice of seperate props depending on which version of Poser you are using. The P5 version allows for raytracing when rendering. There is a choise of water surfaces depending on whether you wish to include the bar area. Achieving the right water effect is a combination of having the correct render settings ie Raytrace options on and Raytrace shadows enabled and careful positioning of the lights. You may also wish to experiment with the reflectivity, refraction and displacement settings in the Material editor. Cameras I have included some preset camera positions to allow you to navigate around the scene easier. Should you need any help with this product or perhaps you might want to make suggestions for improvements then please contact me through the Renderosity website.
