** My Favorite Sweater ** by wildaboutbirds for Victoria 4 including my characters Amanda, Vicki Doll and Sophie Resources Used: QuickSuit by Thip -- freeware mesh resource Knittings by Karanta KMW Treasures III by KandaceWright Cin-Denim by Cin- (the source for the buttonhole textures) Thank you for buying My Favorite Sweater! Please write to me at wildaboutbirds1216@lycos.com if you have any questions or comments, and I will do my best to listen and help. INSTALLATION: Unzip to your main Poser runtime folder. FINDING THE FILES: Conforming Sweater and Buttons: Figures > MyFavSweater MAT poses: Poses > MyFavSweater Materials for Buttons: Materials > MyFavSweater USING THE CONFORMING SWEATER: Load Victoria 4. Load My Favorite Sweater, then in Figures choose "Conform To" and select Victoria 4 (or other V4 character). Now load MyFavSw_Buttons_V4, the conforming button figure, and conform it to Victoria 4 also. Notice that the Sweater and Buttons have full body morphs that match the ones on the Sweater. Set the dials to match the sweater. Notice in particular the morphs for fitting over clothing. You can adjust either the whole sweater, the torso only, or the bottom part only (below the waistline). Using a combination of these morphs, you can make My Favorite Sweater fit over most other clothing, as long as any bulky parts can be made invisible. CONFORMING THE SWEATER TO SOPHIE, AMANDA OR VICKI DOLL: Load V4 and add character morphs. Load the Sweater and Buttons, and conform them to V4. For SOPHIE, go to the Body of the Sweater and Buttons. Change SCALE to 76.5% and "fit_Sophie" to 1.0. For AMAMNDA, go to the Body of the Sweater and Buttons. Change SCALE to 90% and "fit_Amanda" to 1.0. For VICKI DOLL, go to the Body of the Sweater and Buttons. Change SCALE to 20% , "Young" to 1.0 and "Voluptuous" to 0.484. FIXING POKE-THROUGH: There are a few little problem areas, so I have provided fix morph dials to take care of them. They are under the armpits when the arms are bent down (especially in back) and the points of the elbows when the forearms are bent. Use the appropriate morph dials on the Body to fix them. Other poke-through problems can be solved by using the "fit over clothing" morphs. Or, to help with sleeve and elbow issues, adjust the Scale of just the R or L Shoulder. Besides the 4 "fit over clothing" morphs, note that the 2 "fit over pants" morphs can be used together -- set the first to 3.0, and "Over Pants 2" to -2.0. Or use any values you wish, but keep the ratio about the same, keeping the first setting positive and the second negative. This will cause the abdomen to move in and out evenly, which can help to fit over some clothing. RENDERING: Go to Rendering Options and put in the following settings. These settings are based on Poser 5, but later versions have similar options. Check "use displacement maps" minimum displacement bounds 0.5 minimum shading rate 0.5 maximum texture resolution 4096 Using these settings will allow the textures and displacement maps to display properly and in their full glory. :) Morphs: Bodybuilder Fitness Emaciated Thin Young Voluptuous PearFigure Bulk Heavy Fix R Shoulder / Armpit Fix L Shoulder / Armpit Fix R Elbow Fix L Elbow Fit over clothing (ALL) Fit over sleeveless top (TORSO) Fit over pants 1 (BOTTOM) Fit over pants 2 (BOTTOM) Only top button done Top 2 buttons open Unbuttoned 1 Unbuttoned 2 Open & blowing in the breeze fit Sophie (76.5% Scale) fit Amanda (90% Scale) LIST OF FILES ReadMe_MyFavSwtr_V4.txt eula.txt \Runtime\Textures\wildaboutbirds\sw\ MyFavSwtrDISPcrochet_B.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPcrochet_F.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPknit02_B.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPknit02_F.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPknit03_B.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPknit03_F.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPknitB.jpg MyFavSwtrDISPknitF.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXcrochet_B.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXcrochet_F.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXknit02_B.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXknit02_F.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXknit03_B.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXknit03_F.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXknitB.jpg MyFavSwtrTEXknitF.jpg MyFavSwtrTRcrochet_B.jpg MyFavSwtrTRcrochet_F.jpg \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\MyFavSweater\ con01a Knit 1 Ivory.pz2 con01a Knit 1 Ivory.rsr con01b Knit 1 Yellow.pz2 con01b Knit 1 Yellow.rsr con01c Knit 1 Pink.pz2 con01c Knit 1 Pink.rsr con01d Knit 1 Lilac.pz2 con01d Knit 1 Lilac.rsr con01e Knit 1 Blue.pz2 con01e Knit 1 Blue.rsr con01f Knit 1 Green.pz2 con01f Knit 1 Green.rsr con01g Knit 1 Red.pz2 con01g Knit 1 Red.rsr con01h Knit 1 Hot Pink.pz2 con01h Knit 1 Hot Pink.rsr con01i Knit 1 Dk Green.pz2 con01i Knit 1 Dk Green.rsr con01j Knit 1 Dk Blue.pz2 con01j Knit 1 Dk Blue.rsr con01k Knit 1 Violet.pz2 con01k Knit 1 Violet.rsr con01l Knit 1 Black.pz2 con01l Knit 1 Black.rsr con02a Knit 2 Ivory.pz2 con02a Knit 2 Ivory.rsr con02b Knit 2 Yellow.pz2 con02b Knit 2 Yellow.rsr con02c Knit 2 Pink.pz2 con02c Knit 2 Pink.rsr con02d Knit 2 Lilac.pz2 con02d Knit 2 Lilac.rsr con02e Knit 2 Blue.pz2 con02e Knit 2 Blue.rsr con02f Knit 2 Green.pz2 con02f Knit 2 Green.rsr con02g Knit 2 Red.pz2 con02g Knit 2 Red.rsr con02h Knit 2 Hot Pink.pz2 con02h Knit 2 Hot Pink.rsr con02i Knit 2 Dk Green.pz2 con02i Knit 2 Dk Green.rsr con02j Knit 2 Dk Blue.pz2 con02j Knit 2 Dk Blue.rsr con02k Knit 2 Violet.pz2 con02k Knit 2 Violet.rsr con02l Knit 2 Black.pz2 con02l Knit 2 Black.rsr con03a Knit 3 Ivory.pz2 con03a Knit 3 Ivory.rsr con03b Knit 3 Yellow.pz2 con03b Knit 3 Yellow.rsr con03c Knit 3 Pink.pz2 con03c Knit 3 Pink.rsr con03d Knit 3 Lilac.pz2 con03d Knit 3 Lilac.rsr con03e Knit 3 Blue.pz2 con03e Knit 3 Blue.rsr con03f Knit 3 Green.pz2 con03f Knit 3 Green.rsr con03g Knit 3 Red.pz2 con03g Knit 3 Red.rsr con03h Knit 3 Hot Pink.pz2 con03h Knit 3 Hot Pink.rsr con03i Knit 3 Dk Green.pz2 con03i Knit 3 Dk Green.rsr con03j Knit 3 Dk Blue.pz2 con03j Knit 3 Dk Blue.rsr con03k Knit 3 Violet.pz2 con03k Knit 3 Violet.rsr con03l Knit 3 Black.pz2 con03l Knit 3 Black.rsr con04 Crochet.pz2 con04 Crochet.rsr con04a Crochet Ivory.pz2 con04a Crochet Ivory.rsr con04b Crochet Yellow.pz2 con04b Crochet Yellow.rsr con04c Crochet Pink.pz2 con04c Crochet Pink.rsr con04d Crochet Lilac.pz2 con04d Crochet Lilac.rsr con04e Crochet Blue.pz2 con04e Crochet Blue.rsr con04f Crochet Green.pz2 con04f Crochet Green.rsr con04g Crochet Red.pz2 con04g Crochet Red.rsr con04h Crochet Hot Pink.pz2 con04h Crochet Hot Pink.rsr con04i Crochet Dk Green.pz2 con04i Crochet Dk Green.rsr con04j Crochet Dk Blue.pz2 con04j Crochet Dk Blue.rsr con04k Crochet Violet.pz2 con04k Crochet Violet.rsr con04l Crochet Black.pz2 con04l Crochet Black.rsr \Runtime\Libraries\Materials\MyFavSweater\ !
