I have just started on the very ambitious project of remapping Posette’s texture map to accept V3 Skin textures. It is my hope, that by doing so, maybe she won't be considered so Old Fashioned. This desire grew out of my previously efforts of remapped the Anywoman (Posette with Genitals) hip and genital area to conform to regular Posette skin textures (See lower picture). While I like the results, I think that she'd texture even better and more seamlessly with a V3 style UV.

In the lower half, you can see the fruit of my efforts of the past two weeks, which I spent re-mapping the PosetteWG's (Posette With Genitals) hip and genital. Anybody who's familiar with PosetteWG in either her ‘Anywoman’ version by imagorabbit version, or Arduino's P4WWG version, will recognize immediately how the hip texturing has become smooth and is now unblemished with the unsightly seams that once plagued this figure, and keep it from becoming a true variation of the Posette figure.

This is perhaps my fifth or sixth attempt to re-map PosetteWg's hip, and as all my previous efforts invariably failed because my version of UV Mapper pro just failure tp allow me enough magnification to untangle some of the figures fouled texture areas (Hellborn originally made this hip for the P3 Posette, but when it was cloned into the P4 Posette, some texture areas became rather fouled and over laid by each other.  But after acquiring a newer version of UV Mapper, magnification was no longer aproblem.

It was because of my experience in unraveling and re-mapping PosetteWG that I decided to tackle the even greater challenge of remapping the entire Posette figure so that she can then use V3’s textures.  I figure that with V3’s 'Bear Rug' texture style it both regular Posette, NEA, and PosetteWG will texture better than they do at present (aside from the fact that there are a great many free and commercial V3 textures that would look great on Posette, and that Posette would look great on them. So, therefore my present effort, wish me luck.
