Description: 
---------------------------

The Aleena clothing set includes a beautiful dress, sleeves and veil.
All texures were painted with loving care and will enhance the clothes with 
luxurious fabrics, delicately and beautifully trimmed.

Dress and sleeves are dynamic clothes which means that they can only be used with 
the Poser 5/6 Cloth Room. The veil is a smart prop and has 34 adjustment morphs.

The sleeves have morphs for changing the width and the length and are  
included with two different fabric settings (stiffer and softer fabric).

The dress has several morphs to change the lenght and the bottom width.

Please note that this is a Poser 5/6 only product. 
You can not use it with Poser 4, ProPack or Daz Studio.

Usage:
-------------------------

These clothing set can only be used with the Poser 5/6 Cloth Room.

Please follow these steps for your first clothing simulation, or have a look at your 
Poser manual if you are not familiar with the Cloth Room: 

- Import V4 into your scene

- Click on "Figure --> Use Inverse Kinematics and uncheck both legs
- Open the Joint Editor, select V4 and click on "Zero Figure"
- Import the dress into your scene
- Import the sleeves into your scene

- Now you can change the clothes with the included morphs if you like.

- Open the Cloth Room and click on "New simulation"
- You can leave the setting as they are or if you just want to make a quicker try - lower the end frame for example to 15.
- Click on "ok"
- Click on "Clothify" and choose first the dress and then the sleeves. 
(you can also make two simulations - each with one clothing item)
- Click on "Collide Against" and click on V4
(The simulation will be quicker if you uncheck all bodyparts which will not affect the cloth)

If you left the default settings (30 frames), go to about frame 20 and add a pose to V4. 
I never apply the pose in the last (30th) frame. You will get nicer and smoother folds if you have some frames after the 
frame you added the pose. When the simulation is finished and the result is to smooth for your taste, you can always 
go a few frames back.

- Click on "start simulation". 

It will take a bit time until the simulation will be done. How much time depends on you computer. 

If you are not satisfied with the result you have, you can play around with the fabric settings. Changes in the settings
can give a large difference for the end result of the simulation. I often use different fabric settings for different poses. 
There is nothing like "best settings" for a pose.

But itīs fun to experiment with the Cloth Room, with poses and and fabric settings :)

When the simulation is done, go back to the Pose Room, add a texture to V4, hair, add the veil, adjust the veil with
the morphs (you may also have to move it a bit higher if you have hair with a lot of volume) and you are ready 
to render a beautiful image :)

A last thing:
If itīs not possible or very difficult to adjust the veil over a special hairstyle, you can add a magnet to the hair and make it a bit 
smaller on the sides. Thatīs something I often do when I use hats. 

Have fun with your new clothes! And "Happy Rendering" :)
