It has been smart propped to Victoria 4 but can be used on any model. This product contains: - A Hat prop - 1 Strap prop and 1 Strap with Buckle prop - 2 Extra hidden layers for the hat top for designs - 24 Hat mats, 12 Strap mats, 4 Buckle mats and 8 Extra layer mats (for designs) (Note: This is NOT a merchant resource) -------------------------------------- ** System Requirements: Poser 7 minimum + a program to view JPG and PNG files for reference and customisation. -------------------------------------- ** Ownership Statement: All of this product's content was created by mix_mash -------------------------------------- ** Installation Instructions: Just unzip the ZIP file into any folder on your computer. Copy/Install the Runtime folders correctly into your Poser program folders. All the materials for the Witch Hat prop can be accessed in the material room and can be customised. -------------------------------------- ** Usage Tips or Limitations: - WHY ARE MOST OF YOUR MORPHS ABSOLUTE MORPHS? - Morphs are usually 'linear' meaning that the mesh points move in a straight line from one point to another. The morphs specific to this product would not look right as they refer to 'bending' the prop and morphs cannot handle 'curved' point motions. If you are unhappy with the morphs provided then I encourage you to adjust the mesh to your liking and add it as your own morph. Also, there are a few minor adjustment morphs that are not absolute, though, so you do have some variety. - NOTES REGARDING DISPLACEMENT MAPS- It is VERY important that 'Use Displacement Maps' is selected in the render settings for this product to be used properly. The textures mainly rely on these displacement maps. - NOTES REGARDING THE EXTRA LAYERS- There are two 'Extra' layers hidden within the top of the hat which allow you to add extra designs to the hat. You will need to make displacement maps for your new designs for them to show up, though. If you don't use any of the extra layers in your renders and they are not going to be viewed then make sure you apply the 'MM_FullTrans' material to these unused layers. - NOTES REGARDING THE EYE TEXTURE- If you decide to use the 'Eye' texture via the extra layers then please note that you will need to use BOTH extra layers. Apply the 'Eye' material (MMWH_Eye_Col) to one extra layer (it doesn't matter which) then apply the 'Eye Rim' material (MMWH_Eye_Rim_Gold) to the other extra layer. - NOTES REGARDING UV TEMPLATE SIZES- I included two versions of the UV template images in the MM_Witch_Hat_UVMaps.zip file for the main hat texture and hat tip texture as reference. There is the normal 4096 size and a smaller 2048 version just in case you want to design a smaller texture for the hat for yourself. - NOTES REGARDING STRAP POSITIONS- If you are not happy with the position of the strap or strap with buckle prop additions for the hat (IE they are too high) then you can change this. Simply scale the props by about 106% and move the props down to your liking. Be aware that you will need to adjust the various positions slightly so that there are no ugly overlapping polygons with the hat. Also, you may need to readjust them again if you use any of the 'Tip' morphs on the hat prop. - NOTES MAKING YOUR OWN TEXTURES- I always like to encourage you to make your own textures. That is why I added the 'extra' layers to the top of the hat. Please feel free to make your own textures and be aware that if you add any of the additional strap props that they may intersect with your designs. Finally, as mentioned before, your designs will need displacement maps or they will not show through the base hat material. - NOTES ON EXTRA IMAGES- I have included extra images within the 'Textures' sub folder, such as for the seams of the hat. These can be used to build your own textures. -------------------------------------- ** Files included in MM_Witch_Hat.zip - Runtime\Libraries\Materials\MM_mats\Witch_Hat\Extra_Layer\ MM_FullTrans.mt5 MM_FullTrans.png MM_FullTrans.xmp MMWH_Deco_A_Glow.mt5 MMWH_Deco_A_Glow.png MMWH_Deco_A_Glow.xmp MMWH_Deco_A_Gold.mt5 MMWH_Deco_A_Gold.png MMWH_Deco_A_Gold.xmp MMWH_Deco_B_Glow.mt5 MMWH_Deco_B_Glow.png MMWH_Deco_B_Glow.xmp MMWH_Deco_B_Silver.mt5 MMWH_Deco_B_Silver.png MMWH_Deco_B_Silver.xmp MMWH_Eye_Col.mt5 MMWH_Eye_Col.png MMWH_Eye_Col.xmp MMWH_Eye_Rim_Gold.mt5 MMWH_Eye_Rim_Gold.png MMWH_Eye_Rim_Gold.xmp MMWH_Pentagram_Glow.mt5 MMWH_Pentagram_Glow.png MMWH_Pentagram_Glow.xmp MMWH_Pentagram_Gold.mt5 MMWH_Pentagram_Gold.png MMWH_Pentagram_Gold.xmp -
