You will have to make scale adjustments to do so. Save your results to the Library for future use. Eco Coat and Eco Panty will not function without the use of the Cloth Room in Poser 6+. For obtaining a static image, 10(ten) frames work fine for nearly all dynamic calculations via the cloth room. Adjust as you see fit. 1)Navigate to Frame 1 via the Animation Controls. 2a)Load Victoria 4 into your Poser scene and turn off all Inverse Kinematics. Figure must not have morphs or poses applied. 2b)Select Victoria 4 and use Joint Editor to apply a Zero Pose. Once completed, V4 will correctly fit inside Eco clothing. 3)Locate Eco Coat in the Props Library[Props\Corinthianscori\Lair\Eco and Hair\Corinthianscori]. Load all Eco props into the scene. Eco is smart-parented to V4's hip. 4)Navigate to Frame 10+ via the Animation Controls. 10 frames works well; my promo images were done using Frame 1-Frame 10. 5)Select V4's Body and add a keyframe by pressing "+" in Animation Controls. 6)Morph and Pose V4 at will. You must still be on Frame 10+(same frame as step 4). 7)Return to Frame 1 and enter the Cloth Room. 8)Select the Eco Coat. 9)Inside Cloth Room, click New Simulation and change simulation name if desired. 10)Press Enter/Return. 11)Enter "Simulation Settings", and change End Frame to 10(or whatever frame you've chosen to end you simulation on). You can perform a Drape function on the Eco Coat to make it collide a bit better than it normally would. Keep in mind: the displacement effect from V4's Viva del Verde material may cause poke-through at simulation time. 12)"Clothify" the "Eco" coat. 13)Click "Collide Against". Choose Victoria4. 14)Swith your Draw mode to Outline(Ctrl+2). This will greatly decrease your computer's calculation time and resource management(aka: the cloth sim runs a lot faster and doesn't use up your computer's memory). 15)Click Calculate Simulation. Poser will now run through the simulation. Feel free to watch! Otherwise proceed to next step. 16)Repeat steps 1-15 for Eco Panty. Congratulations! You're done! Remember to do all your still-image renders from your End Frame(Frame 10+, same as in step 4). The less collision your cloth sim has the faster it will run. Selectiing only those things parts of Victoria 4 that will interact with the clothing props will greatly speed up you simulation time. For instance, Eco Panty only needs to collide with V4's hip and l/r thighs. Nipple morphs have a habbit of causing poke-thru. It's a good idea to add an additional 5 frames and an extra keyframe to your calculation to help dynamic clothes spread around nipples correctly. Otherwise, turn them off after the sim runs; you'll still get a meger visible effect. ------------------------------------------------------------ Files Included in the Product Lair Eco ------------------------------------------------------------ \Runtime\libraries\hair\Corinthianscori\ Eco Coat.hr2 Eco Coat.png \Runtime\libraries\materials\Corinthianscori\Lair\Eco\ Eco Coat Winter.mc6 Eco Coat Winter.png Viva del Verde.mc6 Viva del Verde.png \Runtime\libraries\props\Corinthianscori\Lair\ Eco Panty.png Eco Panty.pp2 \Runtime\textures\Corinthianscori\Lair\4\ bump_coat_winter.jpg disp_lair_face4.jpg disp_lair_limbs4.jpg disp_lair_torso4.jpg map_coat_winter.jpg map_lair_limbs4.jpg map_lair_torso4.jpg map_panty.jpg sss_lair_face4.jpg trans_coat_winter.jpg trans_panty.jpg ------------------------------------------------------------
