M4 Hats set for Poser 04/07/09 by Richabri (Rick Bridenbaker) =============================================================================== All of this product's content was created by Richabri. =============================================================================== Thank you for purchasing the M4 Hats for Poser :) =========================================================================== Description: =========================================================================== Some hat designs have stood the test of time to have an instantly recognized style. With the M4 Hats set for Poser you get 10 distinctive and classically styled hats. All of the hat models are smartpropped for M4 but with repositioning and rescaling they can easily be made to fit any Poser character from every version of Poser. Each hat comes with two different texture schemes so you effectively get twenty different hat models to use for your renders. Custom UV texture templates are also supplied so you can create your own unique hat textures for all of the hat models. This is not a simple resizing and repacking of my earlier Classic Men's Hats for M3 set. Every hat model has been re-modeled, re-uv mapped and re-textured. Also, this new set features two new hat models 'Cap and Stetson' so even if you already have the Classic Men's Hats for M3 set you would benefit from purchasing this new set of Poser props. The complete package is as follows: Brando 1 Brando 2 Cap 1 Cap 2 Derby 1 Derby 2 Detroit 1 Detroit 2 Homburg 1 Homburg 2 Ivy 1 Ivy 2 Outback 1 Outback 2 Panama 1 Panama 2 Porkpie 1 Porkpie 2 Stetson 1 Stetson 2 Everything comes as Poser props (PP2) that can be loaded from the category menu under the Props category. All of the props are completely modular and can be used separately or with other sets for maximum use and enjoyment. The M4 Hats set comes with high resolution textures that look great from a distance or at extreme close up renders. UV texture templates for each of the hats are also included so you can design your own textures. The M4 Hats set props have been tested to work in Poser versions 5 and higher. They should work in earlier versions of Poser and/or Daz Studio but they are not supported running in versions of Poser lower than Poser 5. ============================================================================= Notes: To fit the hat to characters other than M4 just reposition the hat model and rescale it if necessary. Because the hat models are just ordinary Poser props it will be easy to get the hats to work with any Poser character by using the above method. Although the optimal UV texture mapping was used for each of the hat models some slight texture stretching may occur with some of the models. =============================================================================== You will need Poser 5 (or higher) and Michael 4 from Daz to use these hat props. =============================================================================== To install: Unzip the archive (M4Hats.zip) to the root folder wherever you installed Poser 4: (i.e., C:\Program Files\Curious Labs\Poser 4).
