I understand all that dear, honest. I guess It did sound like I was criticizing Aphrodite but I really wasn't. I will be the first to enviably appreciate and thank the creative technically saavy vendors who give the community what they do. I wish I could accomplish what they/you all have managed to learn. I just can't and not from lack of trying.
As an example, some wonderful artist created a pair of dynamic socks, just for me, to use in my renders. Just reading the "simple" use instructions gave me a headache. I read those instructions three times with the Poser stage open and tried running through the drill and still could not figure out what he was trying to get me to do. I quit and closed Poser out and went to bed. It seemed like a replay of the use of Magnests in P4.
Which leaves me out of the loop using the cloth room. The same could be said for a lot of the other stuff most Poser users who have used the app as long as I have have come to take for granted.
i really can't believe I even learned to accomplish some of the digital stuff I have learned.
It's all good, Shante. People have their own ways of learning. Some are happy to be show on video (not for me - goes too fast, usually). Some prefer the written word (depends on how well the word is written - can be very challenging). Some find illustrations helpful (depends on level of detail - don't be leaving stuff out!).
Would you be willing to test something for me, Shante? I've written this tute on Dynamic Cloth... which I am revising. It is a pdf, with illustrations. I'm going to add more illustrations to make it a bit clearer. Would you be willing to test it for me?
My reason for asking is this: I was in exACTly the same place you are now. Just could NOT get my head around the cloth room at all. All the tutes I did only frustrated me more. I figured we all have different "best" ways of learning things. Anyway, I'm hoping to make tutes for those who are really visual.
Are you game?
Hi
Well if you can tolerate my bumbling about I am of course game. Afterall I have tried many so far one more can't hurt but certainly could help....if as you say...it is the right kind. Bring it on dear. ;)
