You've probably all noticed the way the P-4 Leotard is bent before conforming. The reason is a problem in the way the chest area conforms. Well now I'm having a problem when creating new conforming figures. Every thing I make needs to be twisted just like the Leotard. Does anybody know how to fix this. I know the problem is in the chest, but I can't find it. nerd

Maybe send this question to Larry himself? He's usually very helpful with tech stuff. If you learn anything please let us in on it. -JH.

Thank you! I thought it was just my system! When I first installed Poser, it worked okay, but now the leotard and a few other pieces of clothing are bent. Please, when you hear of an answer, let us know. Thanks!

I solved the problem by including some extra hidden body parts. This is for a set of armbands. ForeArms, Shoulders, Collars and Chest. I added a neck and abdomen and the figure started behaving.

Umm...how do you do that?

The newest poser patch may have exposed an old bug with conforming figures that have a chest and no neck or abs. Adding body parts to a figure um, well... Way advanced conforming figure creation stuff. I've got a conforming figure creation tutorial on my Web site at... http://www.theworks.com/~nerd/Tutorials.htm But that only covers creation from scratch. I have a technique for adding body parts to existing figures maybe I'll do a tutorial someday. (It isn't for the faint hearted)
