Hi, they aren't conforming figures, the exact instuctions are in the read-me, here's the exerpt : SICKLES These are non-conforming figures. But they are easy to use. Just make sure Vicky is in the default position, select her, then go to Window/JointEditor at the top of the poser window. Click the zero figure button in the Joint Editor. When you load a sickle, it will appear in the proper position. Make sure the Sickle is selected, then go to the Figure/Set Figure Parent... Parent the sickle to Vicky's corresponding hand. You can then navigate to the hands/Malefica library folder and apply the "SickleGrip" hand pose to Vicky. The Sickle chains also have "EasyPose" technology. "Link1" is the main control node. Hope that helps. Thomas
