Hi, I have imported a glove from max as obj into Poser 6.It surrounds James hand just right.
How do i make it conform to james hand?
I select the glove and select "conform to" but the james figue does not appear on list.
Should it?
What am i doing wrong.

thanks

Parent it and save it as a prop, then load the prop.

it may not be a trivial problem for you to create a conforming glove figure from a max obj file. nor do I recall a tutorial on it anywhere, hence you might just make it a non-poseable prop, per acadia's suggestion.

the question is also what do i parent the glove to how to save as prop.
I cant say the the poser help is to clear for me and easy to understand.

Hmm.. Not trivial..

To just parent the glove, all you need to do is to load James from the library, import the glove (probably with all import options turned off), if necessary position the glove (on James's hand). Then in the glove's Properties palette, find the "Parent to" option. Select James's hand from the drop-down menu. That will parent the glove to James's hand.

In the main (preview) window, select the glove. Open the props library. Select (or create) the library you want to save into. Hit the "+" (=Add To) button at the bottom of the open library.Follow the prompts from there (I think there's only one , which asks you, in effect, if you want to save this as a parented item. Say Yes).

HOWEVER.....

All that will do is allow the glove to move with the hand. It will NOT do anything with the fingers of the glove. To do that you need to change the glove into a conforming figure, and that's a whole new (and complicated) area.

And one I'm not competent in...

Sorry that I can't help more,
