ESHA'S AURORA DRESS for Poser

(c) esha 27 July 2007 


Thank you for purchasing my "Zephyra Dress" for Aiko 3 from DAZ.

To use it you will need Poser 5 or higher (PC/MAC).
It can also be used in DAZ Studio with manual adjustments (please see notes below). 


All of this product's content was created by esha.


Needed files: Aiko 3


HOW TO INSTALL:

	Copy the .zip file in a folder of your choice.
	Unzip the file into your poser directory (for example C:\Program Files\Curious Labs\Poser 5).
	The "Use Folder names" option must be enabled. The files will unpack into the right folders.

	If you want to extract the file manually, put the files into the folders as indicated
	in the file list (see below).

	If you are using a Mac you will have to convert some of the files.


INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:

	The dress  will appear in the "Figures" library in a folder called "Zephyra Dress".

	All clothing parts have various morphs to match Aiko's morphs. The dress and the wrap have
	additional morphs to change the appearance of the ruffles.

	Use the body handles to adjust the skirt to the leg pose. The handles are color coded to match
	the different clothing parts: The blue handles move the skirt of the dress (displayed in blue), 
	the yellow handles move the yellow ruffles and the red handles move the red skirt part of the wrap. 
	I recommend to adjust the clothes to the figure first and to apply the textures later.

	Note: If you apply the "Ruffles up" morph, please use the handles to adjust the skirt to the legs
	afterwards.

	TEXTURES:
	The clothes are loaded without textures, please use the mat poses to apply the textures. You will 
	find them in the pose library in a folder called "Zephyra Dress MAT".
	The body wrap and the shoulder parts share the same materials. The mat poses called "Wraps" will 
	work for both.


NOTE FOR RENDERING:

	If you experience texture problems when rendering, please check you render settings and set the 
	min. displacement bounds to 0.1! (Especially important for Poser 5 users.)
	
	And: >>> DON'T FORGET TO TURN ON THE DISPLACEMENT !!! <<<


NOTE FOR DAZ STUDIO USERS:
	The clothes will work in Studio, too. But since Studio handles the displacement settings differently
	the Poser mat poses will apply only the textures without the displacement. Please add the displacement
	settings manually.


For further information on how to use figures and textures, please refer to your Poser manual.
