Ok, if you have the new girl catsuit (I don't yet) I'd like to ask a few questions. Did it come with a template, I see the seam guide on the daz site, but it dosent show me how tight the edges are mapped? Does it have full body morphs built into it? What are the included textures? The pop up dosent show much more then the material zones. you may not know the next question. Was it made by Kim Goossens or by 3d Wizard? (Hi Phil) I've seen both names attached to the project, but Daz only credit's Kim for the file (along with Ravnheart for the textures) Thanks for your time, Doug Sturk

Sorry, but while I have Miss G's Catsuit I haven't spent too much time on it yet- I've been tripping out on her face morphs which lend to lots of new character looks- but- you might ask Gareee as he/she did all the body morphs for the Grrrl! product (which shows Miss G in the CatSuit with all kinds of body morphs) and which it sez... Features New CR2 file which includes these new morphs.. other morph injection packages can still be added! 21 new FBM body morphs. ******************************* BTW - I also found while reading this that another request has already been filled by this package, which is... 2 Bonus Mor poses by request... One for longer legs, and one for smaller hands and feet. (Note morphs like these do create minor joint distortion, and you may need to scale clothing items to match the new proportions.) I have wanted smaller hands- so this should do it. AND- I want to create Tina Turner with Miss G, so the LONGER LEGS would be a nice one also...

for clarity: Gareee didn't do all the body morphs -- Kim did. And the face morphs as well. Gareee did a separate additional morph package, and he did one hell of a job :)

No idea on the suit creation itself -- but I'm willing to bet it was Kim again, given he'd already mentioned wanting to make one for her.

It does have most of the morphs of the main figure -- I think a couple are missing, but can't check.

The edges are mapped fairly tight.

Yep.. and I also supplied mor poses for smaller hands and feet, and also longer legs.. ;)

" Yep.. and I also supplied mor poses for smaller hands and feet, and also longer legs.. ;)" Those are great by the way. I got your package, and it's very cool.

Thanks. I always try to work in as many options as possible. I started tinkering around with body morphs, but the problem with that, is if people don;t support them with thier clothing, they can't really be used. The REALLY funny thing, is of all the morphs I did, I see the hair morphs used the most! LOL!! Kim stumbled on a very good idea, and while it's no where near a perfect replacent for real quality hair props, it's cheap, easy, and looks reasonably well. add a little post work, and it does the job quite nicely. On my platter is to get Ryan the templates so you can add the darkening or lightening top other people's skins, and also a V3 version as well, so you can prractically use the hair morphs with V3 skins as well. They'll be in the freepository when I get them uploaded to daz.

Actually the catsuit does not yet have any morphs other than 'thin knee' and 'thin ankle'.

However, as stated in this DAS thread, http://forum.daz3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=6982, updates to add morphs will be along eventually.

As for textures, there is a leather texture and 2 vinyl reflection maps. Also there is a pretty neat texture done by The3DWizard as this weeks DAZ freebie.

Yep, I also heard that they were going to add their body morph set to the catsuit as well. I'm planning to either add mine, or create an injectable version of the catsuit, so mine can be injected as well. I don't wanna mes with it until they get the update out though. It'll be probably 3 week or more though before I get to it.. I have an impending vacation coming up for a week, and a minor set coming out for girl hopefully before the week's end, and a more elaborate set coming out after I get back from the vacation.

Kim made the catsuit, Phillip rigged it. AFAIK

cool, thanks for the answers folks. Doug
