Could someone please point me to a good tutorial on using material zones to create skin tight clothing like the ones for Victoria 3 on DAZ's website? I am completely lost when it comes to material zones and the Poser manual doesn't seem to them.

If I have figured this correctly, material zoned clothing is nothing more than a texture overlay on the figure's texture in "material zones". So, you can texture her legs with pants or torso with a shirt or hands with gloves. Add a bump map and they appear to have a little more volume.

I think I know what you mean, and there is a special uv map in freestuff that has layers for the different maps. Beat is right, you can just assign different textures and bump maps to the zones themselves, but if you want to create something like shorts that have a zipper, pockets, etc. you will have to use texture maps. Look up V3 or Vickie 3 in freestuff and you should find that map. Marque
