I've been using the thigh boots from free stuff, but I've come to hate them a great deal. Reason being, the UV map makes no sense to me, and I can't create a texture map of rippled leather due to this bizarre uv map. They come out looking like foam Rubber every time, and I weep a little. I am not yet strong enough with the force to go around creating conformable clothing. So, if anyone feels like either making sensible new ones or figuring out how to make a good tex map of the old ones, I would...well...like that alot. -Darth_Logice

Just remap the Boots OBJ the way you want it with UVmapper. Keep a back up of the original OBJ and RSR though.

Sorry iots my fault. I really did not think about the UV map when I made them bit its simple fix. Unfortunatly They have no OBJ file, I thpught it would simplify the instalation process. If you are not up to waiting a week or two for new versions (Finally got some decent web space!!) you can export teh boot seperatly, remap them ands then replace bodyparts with the old boots, I also have a new set of skin tight PVC boots waiting to be posted with a UV map.

Here Here! I also would love to get my hands on some boots sans heels...the heels just dont go with the rest of a warriors outfit. Elfsong

Hey Phil, while yer at it......man I love these boots but can't use them......if I save them in a Poser scene file then go to reopen, I get the dreaded C Exception error and can't recover from it.....I'm on Windows 95B using a Pentium 300MHz with 128MB RAM.....do you know of anyone else having this problem? Could it be a platform issue? Usually this happens on objects where Poser doesn't like something about the faces (maybe?)....... Krel
