Product Title: Crusader knights for Mike 4 Author: Elsina Author contact: sitemail http://www.ems-arts.com Product Date: November 2008 Product Copyright: Elsina M. Schepers -------------- Description: Helmet props and Texturepack for Valiant and Daz Hooded Cloak. This is my updated version of Crusader Knights for M3. This version is for Mike 4 and Daz Valiant plus Hooded cloak (the first is free, the latter are PLatinum CLub item). All the textures in this pack are new and improved. Better fabrics, higher resolution maps. I have tried to put maximum detail in my textures. As in the first pack you also get in this pack the Richard Lionheart as a bonus! The textures are not "matching" as I tried to keep it as historical as possible. Meaning the brown leather of the boots is not the same as the belt or bracers, the red fabric of the Hospitaller tabbard is not the same red fabric of the cape etc. cause in reality items did not "match". This is done on purpose. Most textures have a simple "knight" version with iron buckles and studs etc. and a 'rich" version for King Richard (golden buckles, studs, more elaborate bracers, decorated scabbard, cloak etc.). Crusader outfit had to be kept to the minimum. Templars were not allowed any posessions. There are textures for the following crusader orders: Hospitallers, Hospitallers of St.John, Hospitaller of St. Lazare de Jerusalem, Templars and Teutonic knights. Three of these come with a original latin cross and a later malteser cross, making nine different textures, plus another Templar texture of a ripped battleworn tabbard. The Teutonic knight comes with black cross, or black-yellow eagle cross. There are 5 matching cloaks for the Daz Hooded cloak, the black for the hospitaller, the red for the hospitaller of Saint John and the white for the other orders. There is a special templar cloak with the distuingishing red cross on it and an elebaroate cloak for Kind Richard Lionheart. There is a matpose file for the hood on or hood off. The chainmail texture comes with matposes for a high collar or a low collar. Furthermore two pants textures, a black and a coarse off-white fabric. Three scabbard textures, brown, black and decorated with a cross. Two belts, a simple iron buckle and a golden buckle. Five textures for the boots, simple brown or black and decorated with studs. Two textures for the bracers, simple leather and lion decorated for Richard. As a bonus a complete set for king Richard (tabbard, cloak, special bracers, boots) I also added two smartprops, a half nose-helmet and a full closed vizir crusader helmet. There are no textures for the Valiant sword, leg-guards and shoulder-guards as I found them too fantasy for historical (as far as possible) crusaders. I advise you to download the free Templar sword (and helmet for more variety) by Porsimo, which i have also used in the promos. Link: http://www.porsimo.net/3d/props/index2.htm#msp (14th Century style Great helm for M3 & Templar sword). Once you load the Porsimo sword (or any other sword) and pose it, parent it to Mike's hand and than add it with the "+" to your library as a smartprop. The burlap of King Richard is not included (I used the Arab warrior headdress by poserworld) and the crown is also not included (free at RDNA). Besides the characters, the crown and burlap of Richard and the Porsimo sword, everything you see in the promos is included. All textures come with a matching bumpmap. -------------- Instructions: You"ll need to play with the dials a lot to get all items in the right position. The Valiant outfit as well as the cloak come with a ton of dials. First: -Put dials for tabbard, bracers and cloak over clothing, over tunic etc -The tabard dials are set on overtunic/overarmor 1.0. -The cloak is set to lenth between 0.4 and 1.0 to make it longer. cloak dial "fitonclothes" I put on 0.28 -The Full helmet is large for a skinny Mike and I scale it to 92. For fuller guys, leave it at 100 -Put dials for pants inside boots. -There is a matpose for hood off and hood on. First choose a matpose for fabric, than one for hood. I rendered it with texture filtering off. -------------- Ownership statements or list of licensed source material: All of this product's content was created by Elsina M.
