Lesse if I can answer this one intelligently and correctly: Massive Mike was distributed with all his adjustments included via Morph Targets. When you load him up, there are no magnets needed. Voluptuous Vicky (1 and 2) are distributed with the magnets still in place...they were not converted into MT's. This alloes for a great deal more flexibility in shaping VV2 than there is with Massive Mike. Now, Voluptuous Vicky 2 isn't that different from VV1, basically speaking. And it's actually pretty simple to get clothing to fit VV2 without having to buy the Fitting Room (though I highly recommend it). The main core difference is support for Victoria 2's additional morphs. Which is where Tailor comes into play. Here's the 'down & dirty' method I use for adapting clothing for VV2: 1. Load Victoria 2 as Base Figure (V2 is the base for VV2) 2. Load Target Clothing Item (remember to make sure it conforms well out of the gate) 3. Transfer the desired morphs from V2 to the Clothing (MUCH easier for FBM's with 1.1 now) 4. Save Clothing with different name (Ex. Olympian V2) 5. Load VV2 in Poser 6. Load Clothing and Conform to VV2 7. Use Fitting Room settings or manually adjust magnet zones to affect needed areas of clothing (Right Collar, Chest, etc.) Note: If you choose to use the manual method, one thing you have to watch: Make SURE the magnet zone you're adjusting covers the clothing area you're selecting! I've made some interesting goofs by making the Left Breast Mag Zone affect the right collar of the clothing...OOPS! 8. Once clothing has been adjusted as needed, hide or scale remaining VV2 body parts as necessary to remove poke-throughs (her shapely rear runs into this problem a bit...just Z-scale it down a few points to get it contained). Hope that's understandable...I've never really been much for writing tutorials... Anyway, that's the short-form of it. I'm working on Tailoring clothing for Massive Mike as well...nice to see that 'Massive' morph actually working on stuff now! ChromeTiger Very Satisfied Wyrmmaster and Tailor consumer. ;-)
