Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 25 12:38 pm)



Subject: Stockings

Need some help with stockings. 

1 - I add the stockings (making sure Victoria 4 > Body is selected), conform them to Victoria4, and then set the parent to Victoria 4.  But when I inject the feet into the heels, the stockings don't follow, they stay at zero pose.  I can move the legs around and even feet manually and the stockings stay in place.  What to set the parent to?  Body, or some body part?  I've tried body, thigh, foot, none seem to work.

Help!

Are the stockings figures or props?  You are contradicting yourself by posting conform then parenting.  We need clarification about the clothing you are attempting to fit.

If the stockings are a conforming figure, (they'll show up on the figure drop-down list at the top left of the Document Window with Victoria) comform them to V4.  If they are dynamic cloth; that is, a prop ( it will show up on the Actor list under Props when Victoria is selected) , parent them to her hip.

For the latter, you will need to run a cloth simulation after posing Victoria.

They are conforming figures, they show up at the figure drop-down list along with Victoria. 

It is from the SHOOT20 School Days.

 

Also forgot PP2012 SR 3.1 on Win7 x64.

Thanks!

If you conform them to Victoria they should work.  I'd delete them from the scene, and just drag and drop the stockings from the Library onto Victoria and they should Just Work..

Agreed.  Stockings are either conforming or parented, not both.  As posted, conforming is enough to fit V4 without any further manipulation.  They will pose with she is posed.


Gator762 ( ) posted Wed, 20 March 2013 at 8:55 AM

That's the weird thing.  They do conform with the legs and feet moving Victoria's legs around.  But then when I inject her feet into heels (with Victoria > Body) selected, her feet are injected but the stocking feet are not.

I tried injecting the stockings into the heels afterward, that doesn't do anything.

That particular morph may not exist in the stockings which means your will need to use either Wardrobe Wizard or Morphing Clothes to inject the feature.  Afterwards, the clothing will, or should, respond to the morph once injected into V4.


WandW ( ) posted Wed, 20 March 2013 at 10:48 AM

It doesn't matter that part of Victoria you have selected when you inject the pose.

V4's feet move when the pose is injected but the stocking' feet don't?  That's curious. Is this the shoe pose that came with the outfit?   Check the bends of the foot and toe actors in both Victoria and the stocking; they should be the same; adjusting those of the stockings to match shoudl fix it.

I'd drop a note to the vendor, as if this is the case something is amiss.

 

However, if it's just poking through and you have a custom morph applied to V4, hborre's advice is good, but first go to the Properties of the body of the stocking and try checking "Include Morphs when Conforming". If it is poking through on a base V4, I'd contact the vendor...

I got a response from the vendor, and found why.  After injecting the feet into the heels, the stockings don't follow but then setting the feetpose morph to 1 corrected it.

"the stockings has a fitmorph for the feetpose.  Have a look at the BODY of the stockings to find the morph.  The Wardrobe Wizard does not create accurate morphs, it sometimes does, but it often doesn't."

 

I wish I knew about "Include morphs when conforming" earlier.  I tick that on Victoria before adding clothing, that makes things a lot easier.  I kind of wonder why it isn't on by default, would help lots of newbies like me I'm sure.
