You are my new hero :grins: Anz

Cool AprilYSH! Thanks (still waiting for my DAZ update though). Now if I can just figure out why Bloodsong's UV version refuses to let me apply texture to the nipples, looks like it's trying to tile the map real tiny......hmmmm, I'm doing something wrong...?

Thanks April...(wads up knew Stephanie texture set that took days to make and throws in circular file)...just what I needed :) just kidding, I didn't like woking on that template anyway.

for uvs encoding, make sure you decode it with the latest uvmapper 0.25e - if you have attempted to decode it with earlier versions make sure to delete the rsr file in the geometries folder before reloading in poser. this is why i have gone for pcf encoding, less chance of having the wrong version... just remember, pcf is not allowed for commercial redistribution (except with permission?) you're welcome :)

don't chuck out work on REAL stephanie textures, they would always apply better than a remapped texture. the remapping is just so you can quickly use your old vicki textures. i would still very much suggest you convert your most favourite vicki textures to stephanie mapping, and of course make new stephanie textures :)

Thank you soooo much April! There was just no way I could have started buying Steph a texture wardrobe!! Now she won't have to run around with default skin :) And I feel so much better about all of the money I have spent for Vicky textures :) You are my hero too!!! Pendy

Yup, version 0.25e but I did not delete the rsr. I'll fire it up and give it another go later when I'm mapping some other stuff.....should be making my own first contribution to Free Stuff by this weekend! ;-)

Cos I cleaned up the face (the eyes were a problem!) ... and you should download the updated Stephanie from DAZ in order to decode this.

Yes, I am in the process of converting some of my Vicki textures over to Steph and the body is giving me a fit. But it's about time I started learning how to do that part of the texturing game But April, you are still my hero :) Pendy

Pendy, what part of the body are you fighting with. I have a good handle on her template now, so if you have any questions, drop me an e-mail or IM

Okay, will do EA...I think it's just I'm so new to doing it (never attempted to look at the human template until Steph) and Denise has been trying to help me...but I'll probably be giving you a holler when I get back to it :) Thanks!

April, I love you ;o) Thanks so much for your hard work!

lol you're welcome :) blush after the face stuffup and uploading issues i'm so glad this is out of the way. g now let's hope my bandwidth allowance here can handle all the buyers who heard of this... wonder if it goes back to 100% at the beginning of next month!

Thanks very much, April. All your remapping work is great.

Thanks, April, very much appreciated. I believe your bandwidth will begin with your billing cycle. Mine is like the 8th of the month. Thank you again, Cris

You're an angel April, thanks bunches!!!

April, you so rule. Thank you for all your hard work!

Love the remap ......I couldnt get the uv mapper thing to work...is there a easy way to fix the nipples?

I cheated! Any reason this won'y work? I took my regular stephanie cr2, saved it as stephanieV.cr2 and modified the obj reference to point to AprilYSH. Seems to be working fine (though the eyebrows and eyes looked pretty funny prior to hitting them with a texture map.) Any reason to do go through the process of morph moving? eric

April, Could you help me find where to download your texture conversion? :) By following the links I am getting redirected all over the net and not finding it. Thanks! Jay

hey jay, the broken image above the $0 in my artist page should take you straight to the file and it has done since i put it there. and since last night, it has started asking for a username and password cos now the file is on my site... i did go over the 1gig limit last night (my timezone.) my site download has passwording on it so you can't direct link too easily. not sure how you're getting the runaround but someone else said they got that... hmm, maybe... i think you may have clicked on the "get my other freebies" text link? you'll get to a page that had a thumbnail of steph as well which takes you straight back to my artist page! eric, yes, that's a valid approach if you also cut out the materials section (towards the bottom of the cr2) from stephanie.cr2 and paste in the materials section from stephvskin.cr2 - i changed the material settings to be vicki's, not stephanies. if you don't do this, you'll get duplicates... i didn't suggest this method because too many people would be shy of text editing a cr2, so i went for the utility (morpha manger) approach. i'm in the process of editing my artist page to get rid of those broken images... hey, i have a rough estimate of how many people bought stephanie... lol hmm, on second thought, i guess the "folks who download cos they can click on it" do put that guestimate out by quite a bit... :P

so if you come later, the instructions on how to click the link above may no longer apply. :) but hopefully it will be less confusing!

Thanks, April! Just downloaded it this morning! :) Jay
