Quote - Mike, that looks really good actually. You have a decent mapping on the high-res mesh with seams that are compatible to the low-res one. That's all I need. I can take that and transfer it back to low-res mesh, essentially by looking only at the vertices that correspond to low-res vertices and forgetting about all the others.
That might still be slightly distorted, and in fact it might not be better than your image on the left. But you have to remember that the low-res version of Antonia, at least in Poser, would only ever be used for background characters, anyway. So a little distortion is no problem. If we want a genuine sub-d version for D|S or other software, that's another story. But then we can always use your original mapping, since it was specifically made for sub-d.
Olaf,
OK, sounds good. I tend to be be hypercritical of myself at times. ;-)
Is it a whole lot of work for you to do that? Because now I would prefer to fix some of those things I don't like, such as the ears and feet before you go doing too much.
