Hello everyone
I,m a beginner and I have an eye-lash problem ---can one of you help me with a tutorial about applying eye-lashes on my imported poser-people ??
Thanks

Hi Violet, welcome to the forum.

You don't mention what your problem actually is, but the most common problem is that they come out as a solid piece, not looking very lash like at all.

To fix this, you'll need an eyelash transparency (there is one included in most texture packages). The settings should be something similar to the image. The "Blend Transparency" option is pretty important. I usually turn shadows off for lashes, unless doing a closeup where you want to be able to see shadows.

Hope that helps.

Which poser figure are you trying to do this with? Some of them have a specific transparency map which will do this for you when applied via the material editor. I usually select the eyelash mesh (one of the head series) and set the colour to black in the material editor. Then you set the little ball in the transparency slot (usually the first one). A texture will pop-up in the corresponding slot on the right. On that texture, click the P button (sets it to a photographic or image texture). Click on the edit button and it will take you to the image manager where you can load the transmap you need for the lashes (if there is one for your figure). Back in the material manager, click the little down arrow beside the slots on the right and select Blend Transparency. That should do it. I think Rochr has a good tutorial for this on his website.

Pass no temptation lightly by, for one never knows when it may pass again!

beat me to it! Good suggestion on the shadows, thanks for the tip.
