NOTES/INSTRUCTIONS: How to Exploit the package to its fullest: 1- LOAD you favourite Scenery 2- LOAD the Reference Square (Props/AS-HeroesOfFantasy/BattleMage), you can move it up and down if your scenery covers it on the ground. (it is set to remain invisible in the render but if you use the Poser 4 render engine it will show anyway, just delete it or move it downwards). 3- LOAD your main character 4- LOAD any spell effect you want to use and parent it to her (if you want it to spread from her hands), or you can load a spell later once you've got the scene set up. 5- Go to the Poses folder and give her a pose. 6- LOAD your second character (your enchanter's opponent) and give her/him/it a pose 7- Using the Body Position poses (Pose/AS-HeroesOfFantasy/BattleMage) place your characters on the scene. 8- Using the Body Rotation poses (Pose/AS-HeroesOfFantasy/BattleMage) rotate your characters to face each other. - HOF-Battle Mage Spells materials are Poser materials and will only work on P5 and above. - The poses look great all around, use the body rotation poses to find your facourite angle! IMPORTANT: always remember that the final outcome heavily depends on your lighting and render settings. To P5/P6/P7 users we strongly reccomend the use of the Firefly engine as the result are far better than with the P4 and because it exploits the shaders included in the package. We also suggest to not use Auto settings but custom Manual ones, for a good outcome of any texture (clothes, skin, hair): - the min shading rate should be set to anything near 0.2 - the pixel sample should be set to at least 6 - the irradiance caching should be set to anything between 75% and 100% (the higher the better) - always leave the USE DISPLACEMENT MAPS CHECKED - always check both the cast shadows and raytracing boxes. This product was NOT tested within DAZ Studio, we do not support DAZ Studio at the moment therefore cannot assist with it, some features may not work so if you only use D|S be aware of this and that the product may not be fully compatible (in this case the spell materials are Poser only). These notes should clear most of your doubts or questions about "HOF-Battle Mage" and her features but should you run into any issues or have any doubt and/or suggestion don't hesitate to contact us, we'll be more than glad to help out.
