Okay, Here is the next thread in the our little chat - I changed the heading because we have begun to stray a little from the orginal topic. I will have something to post in the next day or so on my secret project - I am past the point of no return now - I am sure it will be built, but I don't want to present it until its a little further along. I want it to look good when I unvail it for the first time. marty :)

i saw 3dzone is doing wll at making new attempts of clothing, but his "offer" of making few freebies "at request" did not fell into death ear, just have to settle a few matters before i can post some basic shape requests if you don't mind... i am very busy outside catsuit so far, but i also had in mind a few projects involving it. anyway i rerere started workign my damn eyes; found at least a better iris pattern...

Nanoshi ( ) posted Fri, 09 April 2004 at 12:46 PM

Yeah S3 would be cool too I have started getting into S3 recently on the side so to speak :) and of course anything for Mayadoll is a plus as she's kinda short on clothes :)

Hi everyone, Hi hack, I feel so lazy and so guilty. I have been obsessed with my new project that I almost forgot about everything else. This work you are doing is inceadable 3dZone. It is very hard to make conforming clothing and you are obviously doing it. I consider modeling to be roughtly twenty five percent of the work in making an item for the market place, the other seventy-five percent belonging to the rigging for poser and promotion or what I like to call "post modeling". Obviously you are learning alot of post modeling methods. I am always here to help. Nanoshi, I appoligise for not having your requests done sooner. I am putting highest priortity on your stuff now. marty

Hey, if any of you remember I had this one problem with updating my Poser 4 to the latest version.....well, i did a clean reinstall and then updated it before installing my downloads and everything works! Thanks to whoever suggested it! This means that the catsuit and the senbotsu headset work flawlessly now.....^_^ Also, since I am no good at modeling, i'm in the making of a face and pose pack. If you've ever seen the "So it was good for you too" face sets for posette, this is what it's be like, except for the anime doll. If you've never seen that face set, in short, the package i'm making will make it look like someone is making out with her......nuff said.......

Correction, I have V3 now, but not the morph package. Is it needed for Alissa to work ?

-Yggdrasil- ( ) posted Tue, 13 April 2004 at 12:46 AM

I assume the cyber-arm goes atop the arm or replacement for the arm? Where does it hook into? The shoulder? Just below? Where the actual model breaks?


Nanoshi ( ) posted Tue, 13 April 2004 at 3:10 AM

Well I originally thought to replace the arm, but decided to place it over the arm instead, it will attatch to the arm just under the armpit. The human shoulder is a very complex design, so in reality to replace an arm with a cyberlimb just under the armpit is more than likely where they would take the limb from, and in deed this is where most of todays prosthetic limbs fit too. of course later science could make a full cyberlimb including shoulder joint and spine strengthening attatchments and maybe even bone lacing to strengthen the skeleton and then in theory you could lift cars above your head. With this cyber limb thought you would get a stronger grip, enhanced digital dexterity and the ability to hold onto something without getting tired (at least in the grip). Plus it has a sleek design and comes in many different colours and finishes ;)

I've just tested the stringsuit and I must say I'm impressed. Marty's work is usually great, but he outdid himself on this one. I have tried very extreme poses with this outift and it always conformed perfectly. Not a single poke-through, not a fault. Great outfit indeed. The textures are pleasant (even on such small areas...) and apply faultlessly in poser5. I used it on the image linked above. Thanks again Marty !


insomniaworks ( ) posted Thu, 15 April 2004 at 8:38 AM

Great Renders Compiler and Nanoshi! Thank you for the praise of the bikini. I know I didn't make enough textures for it. Please please, do some freestuff textures for this. It is really easy to do because it involves so little fabric. I included three maps with the package, one that shows the position of the fabric and two others to show the position of the straps. With the straps - I layed them out on the map so they would be scale with any fabric layed flat over the whole map. In other words, like with all my products, I like to make them easy to texture "on the fly" by using any flat repetitive texture if one wishes. The Straps are split and overlapping one another in a couple places, but the trade off is that they are scale with the fabric and making the best use of space on the map. I am assuming that one would use a flat-repetitive texture on the strings and may be a little more creative with the fabrics. Both breast are layed out side by side and crotch right next to them. There is a square piece of material that represents the back half of the crotch, but since the geometry becomes so narrow here. One other tip for users is.....avoid the forward and backward movements on the "chest" with this swimsuit or at least know the consiquences. There is a trouble spot that occures with ALL clothing in the shoulderblade area. Naturaly a poke thru will occure here. Most of the time I fix this with a morph or JCM, but this is a string this time and not a real clothing. I considered putting in a jcm, but with the way the string is already distorting in that area with Chest back and fore movements, adding another morph would only make it look worse. I decided its best to advise to avoid this problem rather than try a futile attempt at fixing it. --- Most natural bends can be tansfered to the abdomen rather than chest - thus avoiding the familiar shoulder blade trouble spot. Actually this is a very minor problem that some of you expect already and thats why you are not mentioning it - but I am pointing it out for full disclosure - Other than that, this swimsuit looks real good to me also, hehehe, if I can say so my self. It conforms real well and moves rather realsiticaly with the body in different poses. Also I attempted to make this work over a broader base of charactors. I purchased markdc's clothes converter but decided that I could do everything that he does better the way I already do it with poser magnets - besides, I can save magnets for future use. I think that the clothes converter will be a handy tool in the future needs such as a morph and geometry manipulation tool, but is isn't a solve all for clothing charactor conversions. I always come to the conclusion that it is wiser to remake the clothing rather than try to convert it to reach my level of quality. In conclusion, I am making my clothing fit animedoll perfectly rather than making them fit a whole host of characters. marty

Thanks Marty, I have made a second version of my pic, more light hearted (may be because the first one was posted at night ?) and where the stringsuit is better seen in all it's glory... ;) As for flat repetitive textures, they are easy to do in Poser5 : just plug a piece of fabric texture, tile it in the node's settings and there you go. As you said, your UV map is really well suited for this.

I figured that I should show what my secret project is. It is far to early to show it, but I thought I would give you a peek. Its my idea of a mini-jet attack jet for Animedoll. I am using outlandish concepts in its design as well as some conventional ones. I am trying to make it intimidating yet "cute" at the same time like a beautiful girl. It has about 28 hours into it so far and I spent about 4 hours on it last night making the pimped out wheels and other things. I am about to start working on the interior.


Nanoshi ( ) posted Fri, 16 April 2004 at 9:57 AM

hehehe interesting design, ya need to mount a vulcan cannon under the nose to give it that dangerous 'edge' they love vulcan cannons in Anime (see my jetbike for what a vulcan cannon is) basically a 3 barreled rottary gun. Looks very cute though I like the little turn up wings with the 'pods' on them. you might want to move the airrefuling nozzle over to one side as it would obsucre the pilots vision in it's current place. very nice model though :)

Thank for the advice Nanoshi, I will do that. Thank you Caly. I didn't even know that refueling thingy was, lol. I havn't added the weapons yet, saving those for the end. I am working on the cockpit right now. Has anyone seen "Kill Bill". I just saw it last night. It really relates to anime. I loved the character "GoGo"!


Nanoshi ( ) posted Fri, 16 April 2004 at 10:56 AM

yes I love Kill Bill and GoGo Yubari was an excellent character :) Kill Bill 2 is out here soon, hehehe she leatns Kung Fu in this one :) but yeah Kill Bill has alot of anime in it both real (the O-ran Ishi as a child scene) and in plot and style. I actually tried to make a killbill texture for your catsuit but doing the lines proved a nightmare, but i got Zbrush last week so might try again.
