Hey Terre :) See now why it was difficult to identify the age range of this group...so I just made it "approaching senior", with GG and Seliah being the "youngsters"....haha. Just wanted Maja to know she was safe, in a predominately older hen party.

Maja, I'm sure we'd all appreciate a tutorial on dynamics. Awhile back I was trying to run a sim on a garment that had tassels, and I never did get control of them...the garment itself looked fine, but the tassels were behaving as if they were caught in the wind, flying all over the place, and they'd even have different placement every time I ran a sim...so it did leave me wondering how to use the various groups. We like solving puzzles here, so go for it, if you feel you have time. No pressure here, but just want to make sure you know that you're welcome to contribute stuff too. Some days I have to take things slower as well, other days I have extra time or energy.

Quick freebie that looks interesting...a unique character, and apparently texture, for M4.

It does look interesting. I would have concerns about the download, though, as it is in .pz3 format, which means he is most likely distributing a .cr2. (I believe a .pz3 contains the .cr2 files? As well as anything else in the scene? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!)

As I understand it, that's not allowed (cr2 distribution)... if it were, we would not need to jump through hoops to produce INJ poses for morphs...

More Andy and Manny, for fun :)

And these poses are CUTE, Sky! Very fun and light-hearted indeed. Thank you. :D

Don't worry, Skylab. It's hard to pressure me, even for my boss .... ;)

I would definitely appreciate a tut on the cloth room for Poser. That's one area I haven't even touched yet. But like Sky said, there's no rush. If you get to it, you get to it. :)

It's said and done. Poser Cloth Room Tut has arrived. Touches only basics. Hope it helps however. If I missed something or something is wrong, please tell me.

Feel free to spread the file.

Have a nice and relaxing weekend everybody! :inlove:

I'm fixing dinner and taking phone calls, but wanted to pop in and say thanks to Maja for the tutorial she's created :) I know it will be helpful to everyone.

And thanks for the info about the download Seliah. You were the one I was thinking of, since you like various older model characters....but you would know if things were not right, as far as distribution, so thanks for that input. And...hope you enjoy the poses...was in a light-hearted mood, sorta felt like dancing, so on-screen was the only option :)

Well, I'm on the phone with someone who can talk like a radio...haha...so see you all later :)

The basics is actually perfect for me, because I am literally starting at Zero when it comes to Poser's cloth room. :) Thank you very much, Ma'am. ^_^

Well, I do like the way he looks. I just don't want to see the creator get into trouble! I may send him an email or something and let him know how to distribute safely. IPB works beautifully for the Gen3 and Gen4 figures, and it's simple to use. I really just don't want to see him run afoul of you-know-who is all. The last thing any creator needs is that kind of a headache.

I know how that is. LOL. Talk with you later. ;)

Thank you from me too Maja. I've dabbled a little in the Cloth Room, but any and all "hints", no matter how basic or detailed, are greatly appreciated. :)

I checked back to the ShareCG download page, just to see if there have been any issues with the M4 character, and sure enough, folks are reporting an error when loading, and the creator has responded that it is only his second upload, so he is probably indeed unaware of what he needs to do for distribution. He may also be having problems filling out the upload information...example being, it defaults to "all rights reserved", and he has to choose whether it will be both noncommercial or commercial, and even the file choice of .pz3 is a choice selected during the upload process. So yeah, Seliah, looks like this guy could use a helping hand by someone who is experienced :)

Have a good evening everyone :sleep:

Good morning Maja...or for you I should say good evening. It's the truth...that person who was on the phone has been a "radio" for about 20 years now...conversations are relatively easy, I just have to remember to say "yeah" and "uh-ha" every now and then :)
