Reinstalling DS, converting things to Dawn and Diva and my experiments along the way

[Miss B]

Glad to hear Paul helped you get the files you needed, and the weaving is looking very good.

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks, it's probably my fifth scarf. I made one for my mum, one for me, one for my sister in law as she's been really helpful with mum and dad. And one for my nephew as he wanted his mum's scarf. This is for my daughter and then I have another 3 I need to make before experimenting with making other things.

I find it very relaxing.

 

[Miss B]

I'm sure it would be relaxing.

So after tweaking the mesh a bit more in zbrush as it had been done on autofit only previously and I was noticing a couple of issues...I now have it working nicely in DS. I thinks this is one of the hardest poses to fit a dress to but it worked perfectly.

 

[Pendraia]

All the everyday poses worked well, so I did a custom morph for Willow which is also working nicely. Onto Alexis. I was thinking Diva, Hikari...any others people would like to know would work with the dress?
Note: the only pose to create any issues was the 1st image in the second row I was able to easily fix my twisting the hands slightly.

 

[Pendraia]

Diva morph so far, still needs some more work in zbrush as the mesh still has a bit of stretching from where I had to scale the top.

 

[Pendraia]

Poor Alexis only has 6 poses.

 

[Pendraia]

Did some more work on a morph for diva...I think it's a bit better. I might do some more tomorrow.

Only one explosion when I tried to get her to lean on the wall. I also had to add some panties otherwise it would not be a good thing to post. I used the lovely Darling Diva poses by Pommerlis. I think my favourite is the one sitting on the cube the drape is really nice.

 

[Miss B]

Poor Alexis only has 6 poses.

Yes, I noticed that recently while playing with the Camisole and Shorts that come with her.

 

[Miss B]

You are definitely on a roll with this dress, and it's looking good.

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks Miss B!
Thanks Ram and Dana for the likes.
Hoping to get more done today. Just waking up...

 

[Pendraia]

So one more custom morph...this time body type 2 by Ken. Poses are mainly the superhero ones but there are also 3 artistic poses.

At this point this will probably be all the custom morphs I do.

Next step is packaging up so I can send it to be tested.

Once I have it to the tester for DS I will need to install Poser and see if I can work out how to send it to Poser and save for Dynamics. I'll probably need a refresher for material settings also.

 

[Pendraia]

Just finished packaging it for DS. I've contacted Lorraine to see if she wants to test for me.

Anyone else interested?

 

[Miss B]

You're still in touch with Lorraine? How's she doing?

 

[Pendraia]

I see her on facebook from time to time. She seems good. She just got a new more powerful computer. The only problem is she needs to keep it at her sons as the boat's power supply isn't powerful enough.

 

[Miss B]

Ahhh, right. I think she once mentioned the boat's power supply is limited.

 

[Pendraia]

I'm currently downloading Poser and all the content. Interesting to see that I now get all the Hivewire and La Femme characters with it.

 

[Miss B]

Yes, as well as L'Homme, La Femme's male counterpart.

There's quite alot of goodies in those downloads.

 

[Pendraia]

Hmmm...I'm remembering why I don't get on with Poser beside it being slow as molasses on my machine.
I'm struggling to get Alexis on Dawn and to get the camisole and briefs to fit.

 

[Pendraia]

@Miss B , can you give me simples step by step instructions for loading clothing? I have Alexis in the scene but can't get the clothing to fit.
I load it with the figure selected and it doesn't automatically conform to the figure like it does in DS.
