Hi Bopper, as promised I gave this great outfit a quick test, you can see the result here, the skirt texture is from a free proceedural set of Tartans that I d/l'd a while ago but now can't find the link for. The Turtleneck is basically your supplied material, slightly altered to suit the colour scheme of the skirt.
I have to agree that these render much more quickly than bitmapped textures, not that I want to discourage Anniebel and English Bob in their efforts (which I look forward to seeing) but I tried a 1024x1024 texture for a speed test, Proceedural tex output 720x 576 at 27secs per frame, whilst bitmapped took 2mins 35secs per frame.
One other note, I did get some poke thru in the wrist areas of some frames, but this was remedied by adding 0.1 bulk and 0.05 voluptuous morphs.
Best wishes and many thanks
