Are you brave enough? Are you insane enough? To dare enter the Vault of the Dead? Muwhahaha!!!! Darkness falls across the land The midnight hour is close at hand Creatures crawl in search of blood To terrorize your neighborhood And whosoever shall be found Without the soul for getting down Must stand and face the hounds of hell And rot inside a corpse's shell An excerpt from Thriller by Rod Temperton Welcome to the Vault of the Dead. You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave... You have to admit, there is no other place for the dearly undead than a nice stone mausoleum. Oh what music to the ear as iron gates creak open, and stone doors grate inward, and you take those few steps down those cold stone stairs into the very heart of the tomb. Enough to give goosebumps to a zombie or make a vampire's blood run hot with delight. Take your time, look around. You will probably be here for a while. Ah, most likely, an eternity.....muwhahaha!!!! The Vault of the Dead comes with the following contents: Figures - 4 Cr2 *Hill Base *Skydome *VoD_Front (tomb entrance with articulate iron gate and stone doors, with stairs leading down into) *VoD_Back (the inner tomb were there is lots of room for doing the Monster Mash) Props - 2 Pp2 (smart) *Ivy - hi Res *Ivy - lo Res Lights - 10 Lt2 (IBL lights to match skydome/background skies - Please note, these lights are Poser 6 Up only and are not DS compatible) *Daylight_IBL *Daylight_IBL_AO *Nightsky_Bright_IBL *Nightsky_Bright_IBL_AO *Nightsky_Dark_IBL *Nightsky_Dark_IBL_AO *Sunlight_IBL *Sunlight_IBL_AO *Sunset_IBL *Sunset_IBL_AO MATS - 8 pz2, 8 ds *Skydome_Daylight *Skydome_Nightsky_Bright *Skydome_Nightsky_Dark *Skydome_Sunset *VoD_Back_Def *VoD_Front_Def *VoD_Hill_Front_Def *VoD_Ivy_Def Pose - 2 pz2 (utility) !_Zero_VoD_Back !_Zero_VoD_Front Backgrounds – 3 skies, 2000x2000 (can be used in place of skydome) *vodBG_daylight.jpg *vodBG_nightsky.jpg *vodBG_sunset.jpg This set has been tested in Poser and Daz Studio and found to work ok. The IBL lights included in the set will not work in Daz Studio and may not render the same in Poser 9 / 2012 as in previous versions. A special thank you to Bazza for testing for us in DS and Poser. Thanks Barry! -------------------------------------- System Requirements: PC and Mac compatible Poser 6 or higher, Daz Studio 3 or 4 -------------------------------------- Ownership Statement: All of the content in this package was created by pixeluna, shadownet & ghostman and may include derivatives of the following merchant resources along with resources on file with Renderosity: Flink's Grass Textures photo stock from cgtextures.com -------------------------------------- User Tips & Good to Know: * The two structures, Front and Back sections, were made so that body parts could be selected and hidden/shown and/or moved to change up the look as well as allow for camera angles for inside renders. * The hi res ivy can be a resource hog and may bog down some computer systems or be slow to load. You may wish to set up your scene first and have it ready to render before you load the hi res ivy. * A lo res ivy option is included and does not require as much system resources to use, but will not yield as good a quality look when rendered, particularly close up, as the hi res ivy. * The IBL lights are for Poser only and will not work in Daz Studio. * The hill uses a displacement map with a moderate setting. You may wish to set this higher or lower depending on the lights being used to get the best displacement results for your render. * If you see start to see spiking, dark splotchy artifacts or what looks like black line (edges) in the mesh on rendering your displacement map setting is too high, lower the strength setting to correct. Also an expansion set is in the works (at the time of this writing) that will greatly enhance the possibilities with this set, with lots of new and cool features and props - so be sure to watch for it! -------------------------------------- Files Included & Installation Instructions Unzip to runtime folder or manually place files at location shown: :runtime:textures:!pixeluna:VoD: entrance_stairway_def.jpg entrance_stairway_defB.jpg front_frame_def.jpg front_frame_defB.jpg front_hill_def.jpg front_hill_defB.jpg irongate_def.jpg irongate_defB.jpg main_front_wall_def.jpg main_front_wall_defB.jpg pillar_outer_def.jpg pillar_outer_defB.jpg stone_doors_def.jpg stone_doors_defB.jpg top_gate_stone_def.jpg top_gate_stone_defB.jpg vod_floor_ceiling_def.jpg vod_floor_ceiling_defB.jpg vod_walls_def.jpg vod_walls_defB.jpg vodivy_branch.jpg vodivy_branchB.jpg vodivy_leaf0.jpg vodivy_leaf0B.jpg vodivy_leaf0_tran.jpg vodivy_leaf1.jpg vodivy_leaf1B.jpg vodivy_leaf1_tran.jpg vodsky_daylight.jpg vodsky_daylightIBL.jpg vodsky_nightsky.jpg vodsky_nightskyIBL.jpg vodsky_sunset.jpg vodsky_sunsetIBL.jpg :runtime:libraries:Props:VoD: Ivy_hiRes.png Ivy_hiRes.pp2 Ivy_loRes.png Ivy_loRes.pp2 :runtime:libraries:Pose:VoD: !_Zero_VoD_Back.png !_Zero_VoD_Back.pz2 !_Zero_VoD_Front.png !_Zero_VoD_Front.pz2 :runtime:libraries:Pose:VoD:MAT: Skydome_Daylight.ds Skydome_Daylight.png Skydome_Daylight.pz2 Skydome_Nightsky_Bright.ds Skydome_Nightsky_Bright.png Skydome_Nightsky_Bright.pz2 Skydome_Nightsky_Dark.ds Skydome_Nightsky_Dark.png Skydome_Nightsky_Dark.pz2 Skydome_Sunset.ds Skydome_Sunset.png Skydome_Sunset.pz2 VoD_Back_Def.ds VoD_Back_Def.png VoD_Back_Def.pz2 VoD_Front_Def.ds VoD_Front_Def.png VoD_Front_Def.pz2 VoD_Hill_Front_Def.ds VoD_Hill_Front_Def.png VoD_Hill_Front_Def.pz2 VoD_Ivy_Def.ds VoD_Ivy_Def.png VoD_Ivy_Def.pz2 :runtime:libraries:Light:VoD: Daylight_IBL.lt2 Daylight_IBL.png Daylight_IBL_AO.lt2 Daylight_IBL_AO.png Nightsky_Bright_IBL.lt2 Nightsky_Bright_IBL.png Nightsky_Bright_IBL_AO.lt2 Nightsky_Bright_IBL_AO.png Nightsky_Dark_IBL.lt2 Nightsky_Dark_IBL.png Nightsky_Dark_IBL_AO.lt2 Nightsky_Dark_IBL_AO.png Sunlight_IBL.lt2 Sunlight_IBL.png Sunlight_IBL_AO.lt2 Sunlight_IBL_AO.png Sunset_IBL.lt2 Sunset_IBL.png Sunset_IBL_AO.lt2 Sunset_IBL_AO.png :runtime:libraries:Character:VoD: Hill_Base.cr2 Hill_Base.png Skydome.cr2 Skydome.png VoD_Back.cr2 VoD_Back.png VoD_Front.cr2 VoD_Front.png :runtime:geometries:ghostman:VoD: vod_Sky.obj vod_back.obj vod_front.obj vod_hill_front.obj vod_ivy_hi.obj vod_ivy_lo.obj Documentation: Vault of the Dead.txt VoD_fireflysetting.jpg license.txt Backgrounds:VoD: vodBG_daylight.jpg vodBG_nightsky.jpg vodBG_sunset.jpg Templates:VoD: crypt_floor_ceiling.jpg crypt_walls.jpg entrance_stairway.jpg front_frame.jpg front_hill.jpg irongate.jpg ivy_branch.jpg ivy_leaf0.jpg ivy_leaf1.jpg main_front_wall.jpg pillar_outer.jpg skydome.jpg stone_doors.jpg top_gate_stone.jpg ====================================================================== Thank you for your interest in the Vault of the Dead!
