I'm trying to make a scene more realistic by showing some articles of clothing strewn on the floor. After I do this, (I'll be ready to post my first gallery offering!) Anybody have suggestions? Are the clothes objects morphable to the point where they'd look convincing empty?

Do you have P5? If so you can do it with cloth room.

Forgot to mention--I'm trying to do this in P4. However, if all else fails I can use a friend's PC and his P5. Are there any tutorials on creating the effect I'm looking for in P5?

Yes, I'd like to know how to do the effect in Poser 5 too. The clothes don't pile convincing for me. Any help available??

Duh. I know about that tutorial. I'm having a slow morning. Thank you, Niles!

That's how I would do it but thanks for the tutorial Niles, helps to get a slow brain working. I love your flag tutorial, explains so much in so little time. Helped me with the anchoring idea. Thanks, Marque

Do not be confused... this is not my tutorial, it is by Serge Marck. Thank him for sharing it.

In Poser 4, flatten the clothing figure by reducing one of the Body's scale dials to about 10-20%.

Pose the clothing figure manually.

For a truly rumpled effect, export the scaled, posed clothing figure as an .obj file (with the "Weld body part seams" option enabled), reimport into Poser, and apply a wave deformer to the new prop (geep has a tutorial on its use).

In Poser4 you might also consider Little_dragon's suggestion AND while you have it exported take it into the free app Anim8or (or wings3d) and tweek it around a bit ;)

For a pile of clothes, I've used Rubio's Sheet, heavily morphed, and multiples of Ernyoka's Kleenex (morphable) in different colors. (Rubio's Sheet also makes great rumpled bedding, among many other things) But I never thought of the solutions above for seperate items of clothing on the floor....Thank you :)

:o) I'm glad SOMEONE remembered my Super morphing sheet G A combination of the Sheet, the Kleenex and the Old Newspaper would produce lots of different crumbled things. And as CryptoPooka discovered, a lot can be done with transmaps :o)

That sheet is really (bleep) fabulous, Ernyoka. You can adjust scales like crazy, morph it into bloody everything including balled up socks ... and it's hassle free. You don't have to super tweak any flattening and shape built into clothing meshes. Just render a version of the clothing you want, mask it from the alpha channel, plug it into the texture template and make your transmap, and it's over like that. Easy, no-brainer strewn clothes.

OMG---you have a sheet, Ernyoka?? Jeez....I have so damn much stuff that I'm beginning to lose track of stuff in a majorly irritating way :(

Patricia :o) What if I told you that I wanted an open book for my "Oh s..." pic, and it took me a whold DAY before I realized that... I had MADE one myself earlier....

Anyway, HERE is the sheet. Enjoy.

LOL Now THAT made me feel better. So comforting to know that it's not just my own aging brain that boggles at all the Poser Stuff available ;) And thank you for the sheet, too :)))
