I've just finished the first tutorial in my comprehensive three-part series on Dynamic Hair. I'm officially calling it version 1.0.0.

Version 1 notes:

Skill Level: Beginner. The less you know the better.

Requirements: Poser 5, skull77.obj (avaiable for free download on-site), Vicky 2/3 (Available at www.daz3d.com)

Recommendations: A good hair material (One is available for free download on-site if needed)

Location: Here.

Overview:

*A comprehensive guide to creating dynamic hair from scratch in Poser 5. The tutorial will allow the use to create a "wedge" style haircut, consisting of a low population (20 - 30k verts).

More importantly, the tutorial provides all of the necessary knowledge in the form of tips and instruction for the user to immediately begin making original styles for their personal use, promotion, or as products for sale.

Version 1.0.1 (in progress) will expand on the coverage area of version 1.0.0 by providing detailed information on perfecting, testing, and optimizing the style, as well as how to package for distribution.*

Time to complete for a complete beginner: 1 - 2 hours

Time to master: 2 - 3 hours

Further notes/credits:

Thanks to Kiera and obm890 for the material and the skull cap (respectively). Thanks to OFL for allowing me to open the forum in advance for distributing this work. I know the commuity's been needing it for some time.

A special thanks to all of the users who have been suffering through version 0.9 for the last 36 hours and helping to provide quality feedback as the work took place. You are all very brave beta-testers. :)

Finally, after version 1.0.1 is complete, I'll be structuring this into a .pdf document and making it available for direct download for printing or offline access. Please be patient, as I cannot give an accurate ETA for the .pdf at this moment.

Cheers!
