Superhero for Dawn

[Alisa]

This isn't a figure/character, Carmen - it's a outfit And while it supports some morphs, it doesn't require any of them.

This will work with any of the Dawn iterations from thru the current SE version

Have fun!

I like this figure. The first promo I saw she looked shorter and fuller bodied and that was a real nice departure from the super model looks of the other figures out there. Though I have not used Dawn yet (sorry I am slow to change!) therefore do not know what her proportions are compared to V4 or what they might be compared to this new figure, from what I have seen of those proportions she seems like a supermodel type. I like this one a lot and therefor might just migrate to Dawn to try her out. Do we need to get the Dawn extra morphs and stuff to use this figure or will she work with the Dawn base figure (LE?).

Yes, like Alisa said, this is an outfit for Dawn, not a character. But when it comes to body proportions, this is my FIRST outfit for Dawn that natively supports body scaling, so body proportions can be changed to anything you like with scaling dials, and the outfit will follow where others will break apart! ^__^

I converted your outstanding costume to Pauline to showcase my Heroine Pauline freebie, this one with your boots, which translated surprisingly well in Wardrobe Wizard.

This one with Larvik boots.

I am amazed how well it translated to Pauline, to include the mask and boots. I imagine the gloves would be a challenge as usual with conversions. ^^

I use clothing converter and it gives me no problem with gloves, however, Boots...no way. Wardrobe Wizard works well with boots too? I might have to actually give it a try.

The maker of Wardrobe Wizard, Phil Cook, has also created a tool specially meant to convert shoes and boots. You can find it at his web site.

Boots generally defeat WW, but these hit a sweet spot.

 

[quietrob]

Sometimes it just be like that. I didnt wish to fork out 25 bucks for a solution that isn't really sure fire but it's good to know that it will work on boots (or shoes) if the stars align right! That's not a dig at the great Phil C. I don't even know enough to ask why Xdresser would work on a skirt and shirt but not a kimono, boots but not shoes.

I'm still just a bug at this.

 

[RobZhena]

WW is built into Poser, so it's free (though you have to buy the Dawn and Dusk expansion modules)! Oh, the gloves did turn out useless.

@quietrob Indeed, clothing conversions are a hit or miss kind of thing. Some things convert better than others, but the general rule is that tight outfits will have a better chance because of the way things work with shrink wrapping. I had some good results with XDresser, but shoes and gloves are a problem. I prefer to do the conversion manually in Poser. If you can reposition/resize the shoes/boots over the figure, the Fitting Room can get it converted with just a couple of clicks, though you might have to adjust the weight maps for better bending.

@RobZhena I am yet to see anything that can convert gloves. Making them is already tough enough because of the sheer number of joints: 16 per hand. We have to adjust the weight maps for each joint in 3 axes, which then makes 48 joint adjustments per hand. This is why so few outfits include full gloves. I think my Superhero outfit might be one of the only ones with complete gloves for Dawn - most of the others don't include fingers or gloves for both hands. It's a lot of work and people don't want to do it. It's probably what makes conversions so difficult, because there are so many joints, making a lot of things that can go wrong.

Sorry for stupid question but not sure what WW is?
And where is this clothing conversion app and does it work on a mac?

......Oops....never mind.....sorry....WW means Wardrobe Wizard of course. Brain not working.
Does it work on a Mac does anyone know? Where is the site now...haven't visited in a very long time!

 

[Ken1171]

@carmen indorato As far as I know, WW is a Python script, so [in theory] it should work in any operating system.

 

[KageRyu]

You should be able to find it over at Phil Cook's site. It is best to ask him specifics of which OS it will work on, etc...

I think Phil has retired a few years ago. Not sure if he will reply nowadays.
