I have The Tailor 1.5 and am realizing that it doesn't work with Poser 6 (somebody correct me if I'm wrong), so I was thinking of getting the Wardrobe Wizard. So my question to those who own it, does it work the same as the Tailor, creating morph targets from a figure and transfering them to clothing? Also is WW compatible with Poser 6?

thanks for any suggestions,
Leee Also, I read the description of WW of Phil's site, but still not sure if it will do what I want it for. Basically taking standard clothing for Vicki 3 and making them fit my morphed version of Vicki.

i have converted some clothing with wardrobe wizard and then tried to run it through taylor but get error message.

Did you save the converted clothing back to the library? Doing so will create the cr2 the Tailor wants to see. You should be able to load an original piece of clothing then the newly saved clothing and transfer whatever morphs you ned. I always save my converted clothing, then I don't have to mess with it when I want it. Load it up and good to go.

yes, i did it from the saved version of the clothing

If you have Poser 5, you can setup the Poser 6 Runtime as a second Runtime. You can then open up the Poser 6 .cr2 in Poser 5 and save it back and rename it. You should be able to open the "new" .cr2 in Tailor.

Okay thanks, I'll give it a try!

Just curious, Why would you want to run clothing through Tailor after converting it through WW? bB

To put certain morphs back into the clothing. I have a pair of jeans that uses a boot fit morph so I put it back in using the tailor.

Wardrobe Wizard can keep your clothing morphs, so there's no need to put morphs back into a conversion. You just have to switch to Advanced Convert To, and use "Unwelded, UnGrouped". Over at PhilC's website, he has a nice tutorial with pictures that shows how to convert clothing while keeping all clothing morphs intact. Check it out: How to retaining existing morphs and body handles. http://www.philc.net/WW_tutorial1.htm bB

I've read all of the tuts. Been using it during the beta testing. Some times I do things out of the norm, works better for me. What I do may involve chopping up the obj with UVMapper, editing the cr2, whatever is needed, including using the tailor because sometimes a figure morph is the only way to get a proper fit.

Oh, okay. I do some odd ways of converting too sometimes. Sorry, i can't help you on your Tailor Poser 6 question. I can only guess what the problem is, FBM are set differently in P6? P6's compression file format? shrug bB

What happens if you go into your General Preferences > Misc. and uncheck the Use file compression and Use external binary morph targets. Edited to say, before you save back into library.

I actually like Wardrobe Wizard for the simple fact that I DON'T have to clutter my .cr2s with worthless moprhs for all eight of Vicki's breast sizes, etc :) So I just do conversions on a need to have basis, that is, I have my character fully morphed first and then do the convert to. Sometimes I don't even save the clothing cr2 since I may want to use another figure or morph the figure differently. The conversion to a figure takes about 5-10 seconds!

It didn't take me very long to discover the incompatibility between the Tailor and P6.

I hope that we get a Tailor 1.6 (or something) to fix the problem soon.

The Tailor is too useful of an app to let it drop behind the development curve.

I just ran across the same problem. It's not enough to turn off the file compression; the center of mass props are presenting a problem in The Tailor. I agree ... a patch would be a good thing!
