Turns out I can get a pretty decent machine knit simulation by rotating and stretching a twill and adding another bump that pushes down the areas between the "ribs" a bit. Which, to be honest, is pretty similar to what I did for my earlier procedural knit texture.

Here's an approximation of a ribbed jersey knit:

That works amazingly well. Let me join the group of people urging you to find a way to share these fabrics (or at least some of them...)

Oh, I'll share, don't worry. I'll just need a little more play time before I'm ready to.

you would be my new hero :D these fabrics looks so stunning realistic... incredible :D

Denim, jersey and flannel - best fabrics forever! :-)

I've got a pretty nice collection of fabrics now, so it might not be too long until I can pack them up into a freebie.

It's almost Christmas, it's been 10 days since I started Poser again after a 7 month break, I'll be very happy to play with all these textures.

I have followed all your work from afar and as has already been said, it is of high quality, but certainly of great complexity of crossed knots!

Thanks in advance.

Well, well, it looks like someone has gathered 10 fabric samples and produced a promo image...

very nice materials !

Hmm, looks like the FreeStuff item is now available. Back to your regular scheduled LF2 outfits (at least until I decide to tackle brocades and other complex weaves).

Sweet, you are so generous! One quick question: is there a way to change the colors?

Maybe I'll create a separate thread in an appropriate forum with more details on the materials and how to do all kinds of extra trickery with the compound nodes I made for them.

Oops, I just realized I made an error in the readme file. For a smaller textile one would usually want to use a smaller thread count a.k.a. scale because the same real world surface area typically will take up a larger portion of the UV plane. D'oh!

Circling back to this little ensemble, for which I can now make much nicer materials...

looks very nice now

Here are all the materials I came up with for the skirt-blouse combo. I'm still not completely happy with the way the blouse tugs in, so I might need to tweak that a bit before it's ready.

looks really nice 😍 I like the first one 😀

Thanks! Yeah, I have a particular fondness for that one, too.

Just wanted to say thank you :) The fabrics are very easy to use :)

If the image does not belong to be here, please remove it, I have it in my gallery too :)

Very beautiful composition.

I don't know who made the fabrics including the furnishings... it looks good!

😊

Thank you for the beautiful homage, midinick!

this bedroom is included in Poser 11.

Thank you for the beautiful homage, midinick!

Does anyone here who's tried out my fabric materials also have a copy of Poser 11 lying around? If so, could you do me a solid and quickly check if the materials work with that? I only have P12 and P13 and I'd like to know how backwards compatible they are (P12 seems to work).

No big rush, just curious.

Poser 11 doesn't have the PrincipledBsdf node so they won't work.

Now that her work outfit is sorted, let's take care of afterwork activities...

I love this! Cant wait :D looks really cool :)

I thought I'd add a pair of ankle socks, the open shirt from earlier and a new choker to her heatwave outfit. The choker is a bit wider than the one from the bikini set and it has a loop so that users can dangle any appropriate props they may have lying about from it.

Attack of the invisible woman. :-D (a.k.a. checking the fabric densities with a bit of backlighting)

even with a invisible woman it looks great :D Some days ago I found the settings to make your fabrics more dense like heavy fabrics ^^

Happy 2025 everyone!

Starting with the office combo, I am now making two versions of every fabric material for my published clothes, one using the P-BSDF node available from Poser 12 onward, and one for P11 users with the physical surface node in its place. So then for the new outfit - henceforth known as the explorer outfit because of that alphabet thingy I have going - I made a pair of comparison renders, and just for fun, also used two corresponding versions for the skin and backdrop materials (not the hair, eyes and teeth, though). Then I reduced the strength of the main light a bit in the P-BSDF version because I was starting to get washed out highlights on the skin.

Excellent.  As a note, if you plan to use displacement in Poser 11 & 12, it has been fixed in Poser 13.  The feature had been broken for quite some time and displayed incorrect displacement.
