Just bought PhilC's Wardrobe Wizard and having great fun converting everything in sight... well you have to have something to do between world cup matches.

Anyhoo, i converted As Shanim's Artemis pants with no problem except for the magnets. These didn't seem to convert with the clothing and so the pants are no onger as well covered by the 'control zones' of the magnets (as you can guess i'm not much of a magnet user).

So can anyone tell me how to adjust these magnets so as they affect the pants as they used to? Is it just a case of moving the zones or is it more complicated than that?

Doesn't anyone know the answer to this? 

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi

Wardrobe Wizard does not convert any props attached to a figure so this will also apply to magnets. Save the original magnets as a set of props and reapply them to the converted figure. Depending on the relative sizes and positions of the figures that you are converting between, some reposition and adjustment may be required.

If you can provide a screen shot I may be able to give a better answer.

Thanks PhilC for answering this. I think I understand what you mean but here are a couple of screen shots illustrating what has happened. The first is V3 with the clothing as designed.

This second image is the conversion to the TenTen figure. As you can see, the 'zone' of the magnets no longer falls over the pants as it should.

Is this a free item I could download and test?

Have you tried selecting the magnet zone and adjusting its yTrans value?

Sorry it's not a free item, it's by As Shanim and it's called Artemis Lingerie available in the marketplace here. I haven't tried doing anything with it... magnets scare the bejabers (sp) out of me and i didn't want to risk messing up the conversion work i'd already done. However, in the meantime i've read your tut on magnets so when i get a couple of hours of free time to play with poser again i'll give them a tweak and see if the world ends or not. Anyway, I appreciate your time over this.

Well when I started with Poser there were so many bejabers piled up arround my chair that you could not see the carpet. But with the help of my friend Ctrl+Z, I slowly got their complaining down to a dull roar :)

Let me know how you get on. I'm sure you can do it.
