DESCRIPTION
This software updater will add two new body parts, "rNipple" and "lNipple", to any
Victoria 4.x or Aiko 4 character or cloth (cr2).
This new body parts increase in a dramatic way the dynamics of the breast achieving
possibilities that cannot or are very difficult to obtain with magents and in a simple way!
Selecting the body part, right or left nipple you can move the nipple up-down, side-side
amd twist with the breast following the nipple.
Also there are the "scale" abd "scalez" dials that alter the shape of each breast.
The "scale" dial has some limits before the chest begins to detach from the abdomen body part.
The "scalez" is more tolerant for making big breast sizes.
The "twist" has very little use and not always works properly.
Another interseting effect is if you use the feature "point-at" with the nipples and it
can simulate the effect of gravity if you carefuly place the object pointed.
If you attach an oblect like a ring parenting it to the respevtive nipple moving the
nipples dial the object will remain in the correct place or will need little adjust.

All the nipples dials have some limits before the mesh begins to deform, how much will
depemd on the breast morph you use and what you consider acceptable.

MORPHS
Any existent or new breast morphs continue to work perfectly with these new body parts.

CONFORMING CLOTHES
Conforming clothes and hair work without any problem with this new figure.
Of course as the existent clothes and hair have no the nipple body parts, if you move
Victoria4/Aiko4 nipple nothing will happen. If you want that the hair/cloth follow
the nipples you must add nipple bones to it, and this can be done very easily applying the
same Vicky updater to the hair or cloth.
If the cloth/hair has no "chest" body part the updater will fail, where can you put nipples
if you have no chest?!
Also the hair/cloth must have a geometry associated to the chest, if not the new cloth will behave as the original even if the updater reported a success message.

This new dress or cloth with nipples together with Vicky with nipples create amazing 
possibilitis and dynamics.

WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2
- More rotation angles with less mesh deformation.
- Scale and ScaleZ now works on each breast.
- Compatible with existent comforming clothes and hair.
  No need to run the updater on them unless you want that follow the nipples.

HOW TO USE THE UPDATER
You must run or execute V4Nipples2Updater.exe from the desktop if you created the 
shortcut orfrom the start menu "run" option or by only clicking in this name in the 
folder where you have extracted it.
Depending on your Windows options the updater will appear in Windows Explorer as
 V4Nipples2Updater.exe or V4Nipples2Updater (without the exe extension)
Once launched the program you will see three buttons.

1- Click at "Select original Vicky4 cr2" It will open Windows Explorer for you select the
   Vicky4 character that you want to update, in most cases in the respective Poser folder.
   \runtime\libraries\character\etc etc
   Once selected the file click "open"

2- Click at "Select destiny cr2 (Save as)" and you will choose under which name this new
   charcater will be saved. As default it appends -nipples to the name of the original
   character in the same folder. You can leave this name as it is, type a new name or select
   some existent character (for what do you want to kill him???) and you also can pick other
   folder where you want to save the new character. Then click "save"
   If you have doubts about what you are doing, do nothing and only click "sace" and the
   new character will be saved in the same folder with the original name appended with -nipples.
   Until now nothing was done, you can always go back to step #1 and select other thing.

3- Click at "Update" Now the new cr2 is generated with the respective *,png and *.rsr files.
   This Poser thumbs (png, rsr) are always the same for any character you updated.
   If all run OK it will appear a message of success and now you can click "exit" or go back
   to step #1 for updating another character.
   In case of a failure message read below.

4- Click "exit". All is done and now you can open Poser and play with these new characters.

FAILURE
1- The Updater is very strict as for syntaxis of the cr2 file, it work perfectly with original
   Daz files and with well written files, but some cr2 can be corrupted or with wrong syntaxis,
   missing brackets or anything unusual. In this case the Updater will generate an error message.
   A cr2 can still be generated, but the result is imprevisible, something was wrong with the
   original file. The only way to know if is still useful or not is to open the result
   with Poser and experiment.

2- The Updater doesn't check if you are updating a Vicky4 character, you can update anything.
   If the original character has not the "chest" body parts the Updater will
   fail and the result probably wll not be usable.

3- There is not enough space in your hard-disk, the file generated will not exist or will be 
   truncated, so is not usable, manke room in your disk and try again.
   
USING WITH NON VICKY4 FIGURES
The Updater doesn't check if your cr2 is a Vicky4 character, beside DaZ's originals there's
no way to know it.
You can update an Vicky3 character or even Possette!, but the result will not be good.
For example if you update Vicky3 you will have the following errors:
- The nipples will be parented to the chest and not to the correct rCollar and lCollar.
- The nipples will be located in the wrong position, so if you move them a wrong part
  of the breast will move.
But you can still correct all this with the Poser's joint editor and a lot of work.....
Well, I did this all for Vicky4 for the Updater be possible.

DIAL LIMITS
I have not set the dial limits for the nipple dials. Above some values of uo-down,
side-side, etc the breast deforms and can crash, but the result can still be usable
depending on the camera angle or cloth that you are using.

SOFTWARE
Software written in plain C and compiled with Borland Compiler.
