Hey everyone - is there a generic default scaling percentage that can be used when fitting Vicki's hair or clothing to the Millenium pre-teen?

For example, if I'm trying to use one of Vicki's hair models or a piece of clothing on the girl, is there an amount of scaling that should work on both?

To put it another way, are the girl's body parts a specific percentage smaller than Vicki's, so a specific scaling percentage should work on all or most pieces I'm trying to fit?

I hope I'm being clear. If not, I'll try to explain again.

TIA,

So, was I unclear with my question, or does no one know the answer? :-(

Sorry - was stuck at work. Usually, you'll have a hard time fitting most Vicki clothing to the PT Milgirl... but, 91% is usually a good scaling percentage when you are trying to make them fit. The Hair will usually fit right on, but you may have to scale it to 95-98% (the PT Milgirl head is by default larger in proportion to her body, so you may not have to scale it at all), and then lock the hair object ( in the Menu: Object -> Lock Actor ). This will prevent the hair from flying up into space when you pose or re-pose the character. HTH a little, /P
