DS set is now in the box for testing.
The little png sets look different than the actual renders so I will need to do new ones tomorrow but meanwhile files are ready to test.

Has any of the Poser testers found any issues with this latest edit?
If not, as soon as I know the DS set is okay, I will do a few more promos and submit the package.

Finally, testers feedback says no errors now. :)
Will get this back in line for store testing tonight or tomorrow.

Now on to work on pack two.
I'm trying to get some good promos for the store pages for it but hard to stay at it long when hands start hurting. :(
I found that FK-Exibarah set Exi-04 really shows off the sparkles on these horses. :)

Does anyone know the proper way to create a transmap that gives the look of plastic or ceramic manes and tails?
I've got a set that looks almost like the carousel manes, tails and fets but it needs a bit more work and I am not sure how.

I think it still uses normal mane/tail (rocking horses often have real horse hair, so too do some carousels but not many)
Yes, I just checked it in the store. Oh well, it was an idea. Maybe a reference photo of a carousel horse might help.

I have some and the manes all have that filed in look but slick and glossy.

Edit: The DAZ horse has a carousel set of textures but it's mane was one single piece.
