I've tried to conform my first piece of clothing to the P4 girl. I'm getting there, slowly but surely. But I've not been able to figure out what causes the mishap on one of the pant thighs. I've proofread (and proofread again) the settings in the joint-editor. And made certain that they are the same settings for the bodyparts as the zeroed P4 girl. Here is the PHI file: #This file generated by PHI Builder V2.0 objFile :Runtime:Geometries:Myfigures:kidpants1.obj 1 Hip yzx 2 lThigh yzx 3 lShin yzx 2 rThigh yzx 3 rShin yzx ikChain lLeg lThigh lShin ikChain rLeg rThigh rShin Since I added ikChains to the PHI-file, - I didn't uncheck those when I did the settings in the joint editor. Hmm... what else: Yes. I am using an identical cr2-file as the P4girl herself. The only thing I have edited there is the filenames (2 places). So is this likely an error I made in the joint settings (I checked "Use spherical falloff zones" where they were checked on the girl figure. Oh, - :) and Scott. I'll get the cr2 editor. I'd like to try it first to see if it makes any sense to me. So I maled the persons and asked if there was a time limited trial somewhere.

heyas; i think you need the foot in your ik chain. in fact, you should probably have an empty foot entry in your cr2. and an abdomen, as well. actually, this looks a bit like you named the left thigh the same as the right thigh? so poser thinks you have one thigh under your hips. hmmmm.... maybe. what i would do is skip the phi file and joint matching and all that nonsense. create a zeroed out milgirl cr2, take out all the morphs, and then just plug your new obj's into that. and that's all you have to do. sometimes it needs minor adjusting if you have baggy clothes.

... "yScale" parameter for the left thigh of the pants.
If the "scale" of the conforming item is not the same as the figure, it can cause the deformation that appears here.
Just a guess ...
