In main Menu please select Figures/Daz's people/Michael 4 add the model to the scene with or without Geni. c: In the Menu Materials, you will find many Materials for the M4 base and for the M4 Geni. d: ad light you choice to your poser scene and pls remember to change your rendering setting to Final, set the gamma correction to 1.00 or 2.20 for good quality, how higher the rendering setting how better the quality of rendering models and light and sharpness of the textures If the model turn to red while rendering with HDR Light, set the HDR Intensity down , the Sun light will follow the HDR Intensity automatic Moby include a lot of materials, to start quickly your work at first add the model to the scene, then from the materials add the NO MAT materials to clean up the M4 Model, after that add first the :: Body Base Mat:: then desired Head , you find there 5 heads, as next add the Gums-Teeth depended of what for head you used, if the Young one then choice the white teeth, and if the old one choice the more yellow teeth, it will match great to the age, as next you can add TATTOOS to the body, you have option to add the Back tattoo only or the front and back, or just the blue front one, also there are 2 Mat of the Boxer Shorts, white and black.. if you desire to get them off just click the Short Off Mat and your model return to the original nude state. In the Pose folder you find also 3 custom head morphs, you can mix them together also add any other morphs from your library ... For the best quality rendering with HDR Light and not only Mec4D HDR Light but all of them I will suggest that you change the mine diffuse color of your model to Gray using the Python Script included in the Material Room under User Defined Poser light is not that bright as HDR IBL light, if you use the Grey values your models will render with better your textures will look more realistic. Second important thing is to change only the Intensity of the HDR Light and not the sun light, if you set the Intensity of the HDR light down the sun light will follow and get down also.. if you change the intensity of the sun light you will have overexposed renders and not photorealistic.. so if there is to much light or you need more light just change the value of the HDR Intensity Light.. down or up as you desire. Don't change any material setting of the HDR Intensity surface, the image resolution that is set to 7 in this product have nothing to do with the quality in case you wondering about :) 7) Files list 1).
