You know. I think this has got be be one of the coolest things is a long time for Poser.
One of the testers sent me this quickie pic and Phil showed me one of the Tux when he incorprated Apollomax into the program.

I am just so impressed with creative stuff like this. I know it isn't the same as custom items neccesarily, but I think this is just so inspiring.

What is so impressive to me is Apollomax is designed as different from the the standard as the MilDragon is to the cat. And still it works. Now if Phil ads the HouseMouse it can have clothes too. :)

Just like the texture convertor Darkwhisper did, I think this one is going to be a classic.

Kudos to PhilC and Kamilche

Still trying to decide myself if I should buy. You lose all the clothing morphs. So you can't do animations with it, only stills. You won't be able to take advantage of As Shanim clothes and such. Still it would be very useful to convert base object to other figures, then create new morphs.


byAnton posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 12:55 AM

I don't understand what you mean about not being able to do animations. Why would morphs matter? You mean capes and such?

I look at it like this. Even if you only convert props and a few items, it has already paid for itself in savings.

There's an option to convert to a figure without welding then you can transfer morphs via MorphManager and weld the mesh. And you can only transfer the morphs you really use and not all which is a plus. You can also convert to prop and make it dynamic - even better for animations. And both creators are accessible on the Yahoo Group for WW and constantly there answering any questions that may come up - couldn't ask for better support :)


Tashar59 posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 1:24 AM

Kalypso, have you done this? I had asked over there and was told that it didn't. Not that it matters, I bought a few minutes ago and checked here while waiting for the D/L link. Which may be tomorrow, I do think Phil sleeps sometimes. Anton, check the marketplace here for As Shanim or pretty3d. You will understand what I mean. If MM does work I'll be doing the Snoopy Dance.


Farside posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 1:28 AM

I bought it and so far have tried it briefly. Attempted to transfer one of BatLab's outfits from V3 to S3P and it worked ok, a bit of a problem between the breasts but probably fixable using mags... decided to try it a second time using what I had learned from the first attempt and it crashed. I'll give it another try tomorrow when I'm more awake.


byAnton posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 1:31 AM

Oh I see. Simulated dynamics through morphs. Well there are alwasy going to be gaps. But like I said, even if you convert only a few standard things for a figure or two, it has paid for itself. I currently have nothing other than Apollomax installed. I might reinstall Mike 2 to test all my old Mike2 clothes that were in the Platinum Club. They didn't have morphs anyway so it will be fun to see the result, escpecialy on the ninja suit.

Breasts always seem to be a problem with these apps. Clothroom may be an answer for that though.


Kalypso posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 2:50 AM Site Admin

Grrr, I had a nice, detailed answer typed out and then the Rosity server ate it :( Anyway, here's the gist: Now that I tried it with As Shanim's EveryDay Vest the morphs transfer fine and the morphs on the abdomen work perfectly but the chest morphs explode. I guess for your needs beryld, it's not that functional. However, I see Phil and Kamilche still working on it so there's hope :) Oh, and I even tried it on a S3 that had one of Wyrmmaster's magnet sets with lots of tweaking by me and the converted the V3 Harem Dancer outfit to her and conformed just fine, so it works great on already morphed figures even those morphed with magnets.


estherau posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 3:41 AM

I think it means all the clothing that doesn't have morphs will suddenly be attractive and people will buy it knowing they can make it fit their morphed characters, and also a lot of free stuff will become more attractive for the same reason. If it works fairly well it will make such a huge difference in our little poser world. Well I'm waiting for my registration key, (phil wake up!) so I can try it out. Say Anton, those diamond thingies for V2 are figures aren't they (I'll have to check). My V3 could do with some diamonds. So Anton, when is appolomax coming out? He looks rather yummy? Love esther

kuroyume0161 posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 4:10 AM

But as soon as you morph the figure, don't you have a dilema since there are no morphs on the WW'd clothes to make adjustments with. Now, I don't see this as a problem, more of a limitation since morphs are morphs (strictly dependent upon the geometry in use). Magnets? What are magnets? The only thing that I use magnets for are picking up string vibrations and pounding them out an amplifier. Methinks Dynamic cloth may be the only solution to 'after-fitting' the conform-fitted clothes when morphs are involved. On a side note, I do love that among the examples of conforming a dress is Don. I always knew he was a crossdresser! ;)

esther, Yes the diamonds may work since they are figures. Some are changing geom and I don't know how that works though with Wardrobe Wizard. But yes, Diamonds should eb convertable. You'd have to try it and see. But it's why I always said props are better as cr2's. All the power is in the cr2.

I want this so bad it's killing me and I just don't have the money right now. It will be next week maybe when I can get it. Is it very hard to use or fairly simple? I need the fairly simple. I've tried clothing converter and the tailer and I just can't get the hang of those. Any tutorials out there showing how to use it?

Jcleaver posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 9:28 AM

I have a brief question. It looks great, and worked for the most part in the public beta I had. After you convert a piece of clothing, can you save it so that it doesn't need converting again? I would guess yes, but just want to make sure before i buy.

Jcleaver: Yes, you can save your converted items and reuse them.


nwm posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 10:46 AM

...and hopefully soon in P6, when SR1 is available.
I just got my registration code and had to try it out. I can't believe how easy it is! I was a little skeptic first, I have tried other applications (for PC) that promise to convert clothes with a few clicks. I'm impressed by the results of Wardrobe Wizard - like Anton said above, this is going to be a classic.


Moonbiter posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 11:25 AM

Clarification question because I want to make sure I got the gist of this right: With this utility I can take a confoming pair of pants from M3 and convert them to a morphed freak and they will conform plus already fit my custom character without the need more morphs?


nickedshield posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 11:30 AM

I'm impressed with it. This is one of the most difficult type of figures to cloth... Wolfgang (M2) wearing RPD's M2 Mountain Man suit. It's not perfect but considering the body shape it's very close. This is the first conversion utility I've used that managed to get this far.

I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.


Warangel posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 12:57 PM

PhilC, you know I adore you, and I see this is usuable with Jessi. That makes me very happy. Does anyone have any pics of something converted for use with Jessi? I would be very interested in seeing that please.


Gareee posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 12:58 PM

Like any utility there are good and bad things about it, but when you consider the price, and the cost of clothing, converting 4 or 5 things successfully makes it pay for itself. Is it the final solution? Nope. Is it much easier and a good solution for many items? Yep! As Anton said, it's a good useful tool, much like UTC.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.

In post #3 is said 'you can't do animations'. I have some plans for WW but need to have the clothes stay on in animations.

So, will the clothes not stay on in animations without going through cloth room?

This is the coolest thing since sliced bread. The included utilities will be very useful. Phil, thanks for the time and care that you put into the tutorials as well. :-)


RHaseltine posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 2:13 PM

If you have a skirt that you want to stay on the figure during an animation (or even in a still image) you need morphs or magnets to adjust its hang. By default WW leaves the morphs behind, though there is an option to work around that apparently, so you'd have to use magnets to pull the skirt around the legs. Items like trousers that conform all over would work fine in animations.


Tiny posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 2:17 PM

Thank you, RHaseltine. All I needed to know. :o)



Tashar59 posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 2:23 PM

"In post #3 is said 'you can't do animations'. I have some plans for WW but need to have the clothes stay on in animations. So, will the clothes not stay on in animations without going through cloth room?" Tiny, they are conforming. They stay on the figure and normal group movement. You just lose all the cloth morphs, eg. lift skirt right, open blouse front, and so on. Mind I'm still trying to D/L the app. I was thinking the cloth room and magnets might be used to create some of the morphs. They wouldn't be the same as the original morphs.

PhilC posted Mon, 30 May 2005 at 6:40 PM

Hi Folks,

So close..... 4:00 this afternoon we thought we had it all buttoned up but just at the last we found a glitch. Nothing earth shattering, but enough to be very annoying. If an existing skirt has a body handle it is throwing out the grouping, and causes a corruption when saving the clothing to the library.

What we have decided to do is this; we have prepared a set of update files that we invite you to test. They are for the full program. They will work in the demo but wont add any extra functionality. (Demo = P4 & P5 adults only). As this update stands at the moment if the existing skirt has body handles you would need to go into the Set Up room, select the handle and delete the bone, that's all. No existing body handles, no problem.

If we try and rush this update out the door under pressure it will probable have to be followed by another one tomorrow. We would rather get it right.

So to recap, the current version is working pretty darn well judging from the forum posts and renders we've seen. We are addressing the fine tuning and would rather get it right than rushed. If Poser 6 users apply the update they will be up to speed also.

The link to the file is in the Yahoo forum and on my site very shortly

Thanks,

I've done an animation with a Snape in ..uhm.. women's underwear so I don't understand why people say it's not for animators?!?!?!

ALSO... if you convert the clothes without welding it, you can transfer ALL morphs from the original clothing with MorphManager and it's really EASY.. then you just weld it and hey presto: A new set of clothing WITH morphs! I did so with the PoserWorld "Hogwarts" robe which I converted from Luke to David and then included all the morphs. it works PERFECTLY!

(for those who would like to see my animation, please PM me as it is VERY not worksafe and as such can't be linked to from this place. Or if anyone is on LiveJournal, it's available there.. my Username on LJ is TrekkieGrrrl)

I have a question that may make or break my decision to purchase: Does the conversion take into account already morphed figures? That is, if I set the 'Muscular' dial for a figure, will the converted clothes be fixed for this or not? Now, I'm not complaining and this looks to be invaluable, but I rarely use figures without making body adjustments.

PhilC posted Tue, 31 May 2005 at 12:59 PM

Yes just set the morphs you want into the "Convert To" figure and when the clothing is converted it takes those into consideration. It does not generate the morphs in the clothing, it just fits. Because it is the work of only a couple of button clicks, should you decide to change the morph just convert the clothing again. Conversion To processing time is just a few seconds. Conversion From take a little longer but only needs to be done once. The analysis data is stored for future conversions. Because its that easy you may want to think in terms of converting on demand rather than filling your hard drive with several versions of the same clothing you may not use often.

I was in on the public beta .. an excellent progrom and about bloody time too :) So as soon as I get paid (tomorrow) I'll be picking up a copy and then churning out many conversions/updates for PW stuff. Whee. This gives me a chance to update the texturing for some of our classics and really explodes the wardrobe possibilities for characters we havent had much support for. Phil hugs thanks! thou art most cool and groovy :) Lyrra

So basically all clothes now fit all characters. (with some exceptions of course) Is that correct?

The characters have to be hard coded into the Wardrobe Wizard to be converted to/from

Thank you, PhilC! This is exactly the information that I wanted to know! :) Where's my wallet?! ;)

When I read this thread I immediately bought Wardrobe Wizard and got a download link in about 10 mins.

I have watched Phil with interest and used his products for around 7, (maybe) 8 years and everything he has produced for free (a huge amount!) and commercially has been highly innovative and of a very high quality and always worthwhile. He has always been generous with both his time and his products and also with his teaching. These and other forums are full of his help to newbees and experienced users

While I have not even tried the demo yet or the full program, if this does even half of what it promises, it is a major development for Poser and worthy of great praise.

It just goes to prove - yet again - that all the major innovations in Poser have come from the little guys with the big hearts and the ability and tenacity to realise their ideas.

Good on ya Phil! I hope you make a mint out of this. You deserve it. Congrats to Kamilche as well.

The characters have to be hard coded into the Wardrobe Wizard to be converted to/from This sounds like a job for EXTERNAL FILE MAN! (in big booming superhero announcer voice) Instead of 'hardcoding' into the plugin each new figure supported by the plugin, create and read a 'configuration' file that contains all of the necessary data. Then you write one program and continue to increase its scope through a simple (or not so simple) file. Or is that the current approach? (still looking for my wallet.) ;)

Ohhhh it's not the regular pay pal only site ... eeekkk! I am going to try the demo and it's update asap, and then most likely come back and get it before I can't afford the "regular price"... hmmm England right? So if I order REALLY LATE at my time here in California, then I bet Phil will be there to process it! :))) Er.. the payment thing says it's here in the states.. confused... uh.. so when is the best time to order? Thanks all who have commented and especially the PICTURES! I can't help but think that some clothing makers are having fits a little bit... but what makes this a GO for me is when I read the supported characters includes the new Anton Apollo (spell?) that I DO plan on getting.. but can't afford a lot of new clothes (especially when I will most likely be getting skin textures for him...!!)... well this wardwrobe wizard may be a real life (credit card budget) saver!!! OHhh wait a minute...!! Phil your whole site is not just pay pal anymore!! Ohh noooo... budget is in trouble now!! Thanks so much for changing it over...! :))

I ASSUME we as owners of the first one will get updates... to... ?? (often the updates included with a purchase are limited to a certain number.. or did I read somewhere we will get unlimited updates?? sleepy here too.) Thanks for the help!

@ Kalypso Sorry for the lateish reply, I'm unfortunately without internet at home atm. Anyway: here's what you do. Convert the clothing but when you hit Convert To, use the No weld option. Save the clothes to the palette as usual and use morph manager to transfer the morphs. Save. Load the clothes again now with morphs and use the Weld button in WW to weld it. Save the new, now welded clothes to the palette again (just overwrite the previous) And now you have a morphing piece of converted clothes :o) Easy peasy :o)

Thanks :) Unfortunately my issues with WW are getting weirder by the minute, it converts inconsistently, sometimes the clothes conform, most of the time they don't. If I don't see a yellow outline during the process they do not conform. I'm beginning to suspect it might be the original meshes that have the problem. But I've also had certain meshes that wouldn't conform no matter what - and then on the 6th or 7th attempt I'd get the yellow outline and then it would work. So, at best, it's quite haphazard for me after the updates :( Could someone who has a Poserworld subscription, Mike 1 and Hiro try converting the Model Leather Jeans and Model Shirt and the Santa Cruz pants and Santa Cruz top? The Model Shirt finally converted after 5-6 attempts. The rest just get resized, look ok but I either see the magnets being applied or nothing during the process, no yellow outline, and therefore no conforming after the conversion.


PhilC posted Wed, 01 June 2005 at 4:52 AM

Couple of points:-

There are a couple of items of clothing that are causing errors and we are trying to track down the cause. A suspicion is geometry switching, or maybe an error in the clothing geometry that only the Wardrobe Wizard is picking out.

Yes Lyne, it can get confusing trying to keep up :) To clarify,

Kalypso posted Wed, 01 June 2005 at 5:09 AM Site Admin

I suspected it was the clothing Phil, otherwise it wouldn't account for the various results I'm getting. Oh, and should I download WW full 02 or since I have WW full_01 just apply the two service releases I got, SR1 and SR2a?


PhilC posted Wed, 01 June 2005 at 5:53 AM

If you are running the '01.zip whether updated or not, you should download the 02.zip followed by the latest update. I suspect an email did not get through to you. Please email me at pcooke@philc.net and I'll get back to you with a link.

Kalypso, I'll try those as soon as I get home (providing my Internet has come back, which it should :o) Phil.. 01.zip? 02.zip? Where'd you get those? I feel like I'm missing something. I've had some clothes it won't convert, it gives me an "Out of range" error.. but then I haven't tried any updates so that might help... I also got some "spikes" on some of the clothes, not sure if it's a grouping error or a problem with the JP's. In any case I'm VERY satisfied with WW! I just want to know what causes the Out of Range issue. Any ideas?= (it happens EVERY time on the Dark Wizard M2-dress from PoserWorld. Now I wonder if Steve groups his clothes in a way that confuses WW since it seems there's more PW clothes that has issues. Then again I've also converted a lot of clothes that just works perfectly)

Phil, I just got the email with the link, thanks! Ernyoka, whenever you get the time will be fine, just want to make sure it's not my installation or something else. I've also not been able to convert lots of V1/2 clothing from various sources, not just PW. I get the feeling that the script just stops working before it completes the conversion. Just when I'm supposed to see a material change and a yellow outline, instead it just stops. The clothes "look" converted but do not conform. I'll try with WW_02 and the update, maybe that's the problem. Just three more hours left to download LOL!


RHaseltine posted Wed, 01 June 2005 at 9:13 AM

TG - the current version of WW is in a file called WardrobeWizardFULL_02.zip, with an SR available from the public Wardrobe Wizard page. If you have WardrobeWizardFULL_01.zip PhilC is saying you need to get the updated version so ask for a reset download (I think).

Didn't seem right to let this thread hang on #99 so I fixed it. BTW Phil, I just got my copy. Thanks both you and Kamilche.


Lyne posted Wed, 01 June 2005 at 4:10 PM

I got mine... I think... got two e mails confirming my order was processed...and now just holding my breath for my download link... should go get the SR while I wait I guess... and look around Phil's whole store??? oh oh... dangerous! At any rate... this is pretty exciting! I didn't get an answer to my one question on "updates" as the bugs are worked out, but feeling pretty confident that Phil will take care of one and all, what with his practically being an icon in the poser world after all these years! ;) Sorry I do not know "Kamilche" - but THANKS to you too!! :)) Lyne

Got mine working again, it was the mix-up with the second release. Now I've got WWFull_02 installed. I tried installing the SR2a but had the same problems with it so I went back to version 1.22 and it's working great again!
