I was wondering if anyone could help me out..I just got P5 and i have read some tuts on using it but not nearly enough it seems..This is what i want to do,and i am hoping someone can help me.. 1:Load V3 2:Add hair to her and texture it. 3:Load a body morph/INJ. 4:Apply a body texture. 5:Finally pose her the way i want. If anyone can give some instructions on how to do this it would be great! Thanx in advance.. WARBLADE

PS I forgot to add #6.. I want to Add clothes and fit them to her

Alright... one thing in advance: Poser is not 'I got it, so I can now right away create art'. It's a program that involves learning - much learning. I have gone my way from 1999 on from P3 to P4 to ProPack to P5, and am still learning (just about to create my first volumnetric lights). So if you want to learn Poser, you will need time, time, and even more time. But, to answer your questions: 1:Load V3 You have bought V3, right? Alright, go to your Poser main window, then click on the right side of it (the little black slider in the middle) if you don't yet see a 'Character / Pose / etc' window there. Navigate to "Characters", then look for your V3. Double click it, and some time later it will appear in your scene. 2:Add hair to her and texture it. You have bought hair for V3 (or have downloaded and properly installed a freebie), right? The hair is either in the 'Hair' library on the right or maybe (Kozaburo's 'Long Hair Evolution' for example) in the Character Library. You have to search it. If it's in the 'Hair' folder: Select it, double click it, then it's added. If it's in the Character library: Select it with one click, then click on the "Double check marks" at the bottom of the library. After that, go over the 'Figure' menu (at the top of the Poser program) to 'Conform to...'. Select (usually, if you have just one V3 in your scene) 'Figure 1'. The hair, which is basically another character, will then be conformed to your character. It's the same with clothing, by the way. 3:Load a body morph/INJ. You have bought the V3 Head / Body morph pack, right? Now select any part of V3 in the main window. Under that main window, you will see two dropdown fields. The left one has the name of your character (probably figure 1), the other one the body part you have just selected. Choose that dropdown field and select 'body'. Go to your 'Poses' library, navigate to any of the "!V3 INJ" folders, select the INJ pose you would like to apply. Double click. Nothing will happen. Now open over "Window" the "Parameter dials". Search for your just injected morph. Turn the Dial to something between 0 and 1 (sometimes, also negative values are possible). Voil- there's your morph applied. You can usually mix and match body and face morphs. 4:Apply a body texture. You have bought and installed either a texture set or downloaded and installed a freebie, right? Go to your Pose folder and look for the MAT folder to which the MAT poses of that texture set are saved. Select any part of the character that you would like to texture, then double click the MAT file. The texture will be applied to the whole character. Be careful: You can only use V3-, M3 or SP3 textures on V3. Judy-, Don etc. MATs will not work. 5:Finally pose her the way i want. Now either you use one of the poses in the library, or you carefully learn to pose yourself... I want to add clothes and fit them to her You have bought at least one clothing set (or downloaded a freebie) which is specifically for V3, right? Then do the same as for "hair if saved in the character library". Hope that helps for a start. As I've said, you will need a long, long time to actually learn Poser. And even then, the 'Create beautiful and outstanding art' will not magically appear - that has something to do with talent, which doesn't come with 'just' learning the program for some years ;-) Good luck!
