- IN CARRARA LAND * * * * * * * * * * Make your label(s) in Carrara and assign polygon (group) names. (no "material" assignment ... yet) Then, in Poser, you assign "materials" to the "groups" that were assigned in Carrara. First, in Carrara, we're going to make two labels. One is just a tiny bit larger than the other. This will give us our two sides. The "outside label" has "standard polymesh normals" -and- the "inside label" will have "reverse polymesh normals." this is how we make two labels in the mesh modeler: Select your label mesh object and ... [menu] "Selection" ----> "Name polygons" ... name it "outside." ************************************************************ * BE CAREFULL - Note: USE the "name polygons" function and * * ->DO NOT USE<- the "name polymesh" function._____________* ************************************************************ Now, "duplicate" the "outside" polymesh. Now, the new mesh is allready "selected, so ... 1. RENAME* the new mesh to "inside" and ... 2. RESIZE all dimensions to 99.9% and ... 3. REVERSE the polymesh "normals." *Select your new mesh object and ... [menu] "Selection" ----> "Name polygons" ... name it "inside." Now, you can ... Export your "label" prop object from Carrara. *********************************************** * * * * * * * IN POSER LAND * * * * * * * * * * After you import the "label" object into Poser, you already have the "inside" and "outside" groups defined. All you need to do is use the "group editor" to assign: ... the "material" to the "outside group" as "outside" and ... (you guessed it) ... the "material" to the "inside group" as "inside." Now use [menu} "Render" ----> "Materials..." to assign the texmap for your printed label to the "outside" and assign the texmap "NONE" for the "inside." ******************************************** Make sure to UNCHECK the ... "Texture changes apply to entire figure" box. ******************************************** Did it work? OK? ................... Now let's see a pic. cheers, dr geep ;=]
Remember ... "With Poser, all things are possible, and poseable!"
cheers,
