Product Name: MR HAPPY (Character Pack for DAZ's Michael 3) Copyright: 2007 By: Tony Kitchens (aka Grotto) All of this product's content was created by Tony Kitchens (Grotto).

Months in development, my goal with MR HAPPY was to create a character pack that would transform DAZ's Michael 3 into something completely different. The MR HAPPY FULL BODY MORPH changes virtually every part of the Michael 3 geometry. His Ribs show beneath withered skin, his limbs are emaciated, his face now a cadaverous skull with receded lips and sunken bloodshot, eyes. An amazing set of 38 CUSTOM HEAD, BODY AND FACIAL MORPHS has been included to pose MR HAPPY'S radically changed geometry. Extremly easy to load, All morph files are packaged as a set and load with a single mouse click! MR HAPPY'S FULL BODY TEXTURE MAP and FULL BODY BUMP MAP transform his skin into a dry wrinkled mass of rotting flesh. MR HAPPY'S TEXTURE MAPS, BUMP MAPS and BUMP SETTINGS are also packaged to load with just one mouse click! 10 Gruesome CUSTOM ACTION POSES are also included to get you started. Requirements: -DAZ Michael 3 base figure (MR HAPPY only requires the basic morphs that come with the Michael 3 Base Figure. MR HAPPY is packaged with his own custom morphs and DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY MICHAEL 3 MORPH ADD ON PACKAGES to operate). . -PC compatible (MAC compatible with MACONVERTER) (MAC users will also need a ZIP opener utility like ZipIt or MacZip) Works with Poser 5, 6, 7 and up. Installation Instructions: MAC USERS-IMPORTANT: DO NOT PROCEED without first reading the special MAC installation instructions at the end of this Readme. 1) To install the product, extract the first zip file (MR HAPPY CORPSE 1) into your Poser root directory. When prompted, choose overwrite. Then extract the MR HAPPY CORPSE 2 zip file into your poser directory in the same manner. (MAC Users: Please see the special Macintosh installation instructions at the end of this Readme*). 2) Load DAZ3d's Michael 3 figure. 3) In Poser navigate to Pose/MR HAPPY MORPH-MATL. Double click to open it then double click MR HAPPY MAT POSE to load all textures. Finally, double click MR HAPPY ALL MORPHS to load the morphs. 4) SAVE YOUR FIGURE!!!! Be sure to save your figure at this point to avoid having to repeat this installation: In Poser open your figures menu and save your figure as MR HAPPY. That's all there is to it! MR HAPPY is saved and ready to use. USER TIPS & TRICKS: As with most Poser characters, some of MR HAPPY'S facial morphs will blend better if ajoining body parts are morphed as well. For instance MR HAPPYS "MH MOUTH OPEN" head morph will appear smoother if the "MH MOUTH OPEN" neck morph is used as well. MR HAPPYS Lacrimals have been removed for aesthetic reasons leaving a small gap in the inside corners of his eyes. These gaps can easily be closed using MR HAPPY'S "MH EYES ROUNDER" morph. You may wish to reduce the size of the shoulders for some poses. You can easily do so using the "MH SHOULDERS SMALLER" morph. You can change MR HAPPY'S appearance by experimenting with the various head shape dials provided. For test renders use the "Draft" render setting to save render time. For great final renders be sure to use the "Production Render" setting this will greatly improve texture quality. Be sure that "shadows" is turned on. Also remember to avoid "Flat" lighting. Experiment with lights to bring out highlights and shadows. Add Hair, clothing and props (not included) to create different characters. Be sure to scale clothing to fit MR HAPPY'S slim & trim physique. MR HAPPY'S CUSTOM POSES can be found in the Poser pose directory under "MR HAPPY POSES" LIMITATIONS: Because the geometry has been so radically altered some of the Michael 3 standard facial morphs no longer work- but fear not; MR HAPPY comes with 38 custom face and body morphs specially designed to work with his drastically altered mesh geometry!
