Mesh Manglers Handcuffs This product has been created by MESH MANGLERS - 3D MODELS Product Copyright: 2008 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Product Description: This handcuff model is fully poseable allowing the fitting of the model to virtually any two armed human type character. The model consists of four main parts 1. The single strand 2. The handcuff body 3. The handcuff body hinge 4. The chain # The single strand opens and closes allowing the tightness of the handcuff around the wrist to be adjusted. It can be rotated a complete 360 degrees. # The handcuff body rotates around the handcuff body hinge which allows for finer adjustment of the fitting of the cuffs. It also can be rotated a complete 360 degrees. # The handcuff body hinge rotates around the adjacent chain link which allows for finer adjustments of the fitting of the cuffs. The hand cuff body hinge is not limited in the amount it can bend but a check after movement should be made to prevent intersection with the chain. # The chain should be used to perform all translations and rotations of the handcuffs as it is the center of gravity for the model. There are four handcuff figure files provided. These are: Handcuffs Default Handcuffs Front Handcuffs Hanging Handcuffs Rear These have been created to enable precise placement of the handcuff model in your scene when used in combination with the similarly named poses provided. The 'Handcuffs Default' figure file loads the handcuffs into your scene in a default position not related to any particular pose. LOCATION: Figure>MeshManglers>Handcuffs POSES There are five poses in this pack which can be used together with the three preset handcuff figure files.

The figure file presets will load the handcuff model into your scene in positions that compliment the associated poses provided. The 'Handcuffs Default' figure file loads the handcuffs into your scene in a default position not related to any particular pose. IMPORTANT: Follow these steps to get the best use from this product when using the 'James' character. 1. Load the 'James' Character 2. Pose the 'James' Character using the 'Handcuffed Front' Pose then apply the 'Handcuffs Front' Figure File, OR ...Pose the 'James' Character using the 'Handcuffed Hanging' Pose then apply the 'Handcuffs Hanging' Figure File, OR ...Pose the 'James' Character using the 'Handcuffed Rear' Pose then apply the 'Handcuffs Rear' Figure File. DO NOT USE THE HANDCUFFED PRONE OR KNEELING POSE YET. 3. Once the handcuffs have been applied to your character it is important that the handcuffs are then parented to either the left or right forearm of your character. 4. Once the handcuffs have been parented to your character you can then re-pose your character. The three 'rear' handcuffed positions use the same arm and wrist positions. The 'Handcuffs Rear' figure file loads in the standing position, so until the handcuffs are parented to the forearms in this position then changing the rear handcuffed position to the kneeling or prone position will cause the handcuffs to remain where they are in world space whilst the character moves. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Limitations Usage Rights.
