Uh.... is there a reason to inj. the lion into the HW cub? He looks right to me...I also noted from Google, that lion cubs do NOT have a tail tuft...

Obviously they are IN my poser! :)

From the ReadMe:

CUB:
To create the Lion Cub in Poser:
1-Load the HiveWire Big Cat
2-INJ the HWCub
3-INJ the HWLion
4-Apply Lion Cub Mats
5-Dial the Lioness and Cub morphs at 100% or your preferred amount

To create the Lion Cub in DAZ Studio:
1-Load the HiveWire Big Cat
2-Apply Lion Cub Mats
3-Dial the Lioness and Cub morphs at 100% or your preferred amount

You can alternately, in DAZ Studio, start with the HiveWireLioness, apply the Lion Cub Mats, dial the Cub morph, and remove the tail hair.

Additional base morphs should be used at 25-30% when combining Lioness morph with cub. Dialing the Lion and Cub morphs to create the cub will not result in a correct looking cub. You can add the male genitals in moderation to get a male cub.

what lady and lion poses?
I picked up a set a long time ago at Daz for Genesis 2 called Lady and the Lion poses, but the poses will only work for Dawn not the big cat ............ Although............ would be cool if someone could do some for Dawn and the Lion!!

Ohhh ........... POMMERLIS!!! ;)

Let me see if I can find the link.

Here is the link it's Olympia, but ...... they work fine with Dawn as it's listed as Genesis 2. Lady and the Lion Poses for Olympia and the Big Cat | 3D Models and 3D Software by Daz 3D Actually ................. could use the converter to convert over to Poser if you wanted to Poser Format Exporter (PFE) | 3D Models and 3D Software by Daz 3D , but only the human figure poses will work so ...... might have to get creative with some of your default poses for the HW Lion. There's also a set out for Victoria 7 but cant remember if it's listed as lion or gladiator.

Hey Lyne

I just downloaded and installed the Lion Family final files and I found it best to load the HW Big Cat, INJ the Cub and Lion. Then dial the Lioness and Cub to 100% and apply the Lion Cub MAT and then you will have my lion cub character! Def use the Lioness instead of the Lion dial. When I did these steps, it matches my Lion Cub preset character I made for myself.

Correct - I replied to this a few posts ago but you prob'ly missed it :). Everyone PLEASE READ THE READ-ME file. There is info in there that is important in using the Lion/Lioness, and Cub

How are we ever supposed to concentrate on making bird renders for the on-going contest when you folks keep presenting new fun stuff for us to play with? I'm having enough trouble getting time to even start my bird contest scene composition, and don't need any more distractions! It's a totally awesome set of new distractions, however... ;)

plumber is not done still.... I did the cub per your steps... NOW all the morphs don't work...he all goes to chewing gum BADLY... if I apply the cub base poses, or if I use the morphs in the body... gosh this is hard!

I'll try starting with the cub...it just does not make sense to me

YES! WORKS WELL!! POSES AND INDIVIDUAL DIALS! YAY!

The cub base poses will need adjusting - they're not designed to work with the Lion Cub. Hopefully someone will do some Lion Cub poses :)

LOL, Vorgensbane - gotta multitask ;)

Yes, especially the Cub Cleaning 01 poses for Mom and the Cub. I've already tried it, and it definitely needs tweaking for the Lioness and Lion Cub.

I couldn't agree more. I've collected a list of what I want in a render for the Open Rendering Season contest, but have I started working on it? Of course not, who has the time. :D

I bought the lion today. I'm so impressed with the detail! Absolutely love it!

Is it time to play what animal is next? I'm hoping it's the deer.
