For my christmas present to the community this year I decided to fix somethign thats been bugging me for a while.  Jessi 1, (not Jessi g2) has a certain athletic appeal, but some terrible bend distortions make the figure frustrating to use.

So .. I decided to fix that.  After making several dozen bend fixing morphs, I made a 'few' full body morphs .. and then some more .. and some partial morphs .. and some scaling dials ... and some fixit morphs for the strang skull shape and jaw and ....

So here is Jessi 1 improved. If you have version 6 or above of poser you should have Jessi in there somplace and be able to use this figure.

Thanks to SnarlyGribbly and Baggins Bill for the lovely EZskin settings applied over jessi's stock maps.  Thanks to my poor much beleagured beta testers - SsgBryan, Geep and Villters

A set of morphs - bend fixes, fullbody shapes, head shapes, head fixes and scaling morphs to add more useability and flexibility to the jessi1 figure.  Promos shown with the Jessi1 mterials supplemented by ESkin settings.

Usage Tips and Limitations: this uses the regular jessi1.obz based figure NOT the 'hires'.  The Cr2 contains many morphs. Some scaling morphs may only work properly in poser 9 and 10. Bend fix morphs must be manually applied

Cr2 contains skin settings from EZskin2 by SnarlyGribbly, with his permission. Maps required are the stock maps from poser with no edits.

A number of head morphs were created using the dials hidden away in the Face room. Some were slightly modified via smoothing to be more useable. They are by no means perfect and you will have to fiddle. However they do add a range of options that were previously missing, so have fun messing about

Body morphs fall into the following groups

Spandex - these morphs are best used with SecondSkins, the smooth and remove features for the appearence of a bodysuit with no clothing mesh

FullBody - these morphs chape the entire body of the figure excepting hands, feet and head

Partial Body - These morphs change smaller sections of the body and are roughly grouped by region

Bendfixes - These morphs fix mesh crumpling caused by bending parts. They are roughly grouped by region and named by bodypart name, direction and degree of bend.

Headfixes - these three morphs have been left on and change the appearence of the head

Scaling - these morphs effect only the scaling dials on the figure and can be used to alter the bodypropertions

Many thanks Lyrra, I 've often thought she needed morph options to give her a less "dramatic" shape. Only just started looking at them but looks an excellent set.

As feedback (not complaint) I'm getting "The file has newer version number than expected" message when loading in pp2012. Just appears to be a warning as figure and morphs load ok - I'm probably doing something wrong but if you think its something more fundamental and need more info let me know.

Thanks Lyrra. I just wish she was weightmapped. I always like Jessi except for that big Sade-looking forehead of hers.

the file was saved in pp2014. older versions of poser will whine, but load it anyays.  the only thing that may not work pre-poser 8 or so is the scaling morph dials

EClark

well a wm version would mean conversion of all the clothing .. this at least has the benefit of backwards compatability. A little morph transfer and voila, the old wardrobe( all 8 things) is ready to go.

Try it with subdivision on .. it looks pretty darned good for an older lady :)

She looks great, thank you very much.

Thank you.  I look forwards to trying her out.  If you are using PP2014, then you can applying weight mapping within the program.  Interested to see if this enhances the applied fixes.  Thanks again.

adding weightmapping would do very little, unless you then adjust the weightmaps. but then you have to deal with all the clothing ...

Just use the subdivision instead. quick, easy, and less headaches getting thngs to work

Many thanks for this.

Most kind of you, thanks!

Beautiful work, Lyrra.  I always thought Jessi had a pleasant shape but now she's a lot more usable.  Thanks so much for making it available as a freebie.  You obviously put a lot of time in to this.

As long as the grouping doesn't change, it's nothing that 'Copy Joint Zones From' or Poser Place's Outfitter  (free at RDNA) couldn't handle.

 

Thanx for this Lyrra!

Hi

Thanks: I use the Jessi 1 figure all the time, I'll check this out.

Since my Lucy character is based on Jessi and I haven't had any luck trying to redo her and have her look the same in a latter version this is a welcome improvement.

If you shoot a mime, do you need a silencer?

Thanks, Lyrra :)
