Drop the files in the Simple Dress archive into any figure folder. You should find the cr2, obj, png and pmd files, as well as a texture template and a simple floral pattern.

Compared to the earlier version, the leg bends are better, but could probably still improve. The UV mapping is now finished.

To come are more morphs - probably to match at least the high and low morphs for the breast, as well as a pleated dress and maybe some other dress shapes.

Feedback and suggestions would be appreciated. The only caveat is that the base model will only be changed if someone finds a huge flaw - the UV mapping took too long to risk mucking it up now. Otherwise, any joint and morph suggestions, extra ghost bones etc would be appreciated.

Thank you, I like the length of the sleeves, nicely trendy, and the skirt. The shoulder UV looks better too. You're a champ to do this. Emily

Thank you. I'm probably going add a few more morphs (try and match the default breast morphs), maybe a couple more skirt style morphs - the flaired idea works, but the smoothing kills the pleats. Maybe also a couple of sleeve styles, then wrap it all up and stick it in the free stuff. So, if anyone finds a fault, let me know over the next week or so, and I'll try and fix it. Then its texture time, and move onto another project.

since it has morphs, this is a conforming figure, correct? ::::: Opera :::::

Yes - this version is conforming. I'll probably stick a dynamic version in the final package - I still have the unsplit, corrected UVed version, and I know it works as dynamic cloth. I've found Jessie to be the easiest character to get cloths to conform to.

cool, good WIP Morph for open buttons down the front/back? ::::: Opera :::::

Partially opened tops like the Ulitize stuff? Sadly, that need to be designed into the original mesh. On the Ulitize tops, the mesh isn't a closed cylinder - at the front the mesh doesn't join up, more like a roll of paper, so to get the open morphs all you have to do is pull the two seperate areas away from each other. It's a nice idea, and I can see how to do it in Wings (my modeller of choice), using the hole material to break the solid object, but sadly it's too late for this dress - Wings doesn't seem to cooperate with the UV mapping on imported obj files. That might become the project after next (kimono style dress in very early development, then perhaps a proper opening blouse.)

Beautiful!

Thank you all. Now on to the serious stuff - any suggestions for a name?
