First off, thanks to those who helped me locate a cool pair of boots. My problem now is getting boots made for Vicky, to fit Mike. I'm new at the converting process, and would like to know what the steps are in converting these boots. When I conform them to Mike, they dont' line up right. I can make them line up, but will they still be conforming? Do I need to bring them into another program to morph them better, etc. Basically, is there a step by step process that I can follow, tutorial, etc. Or just let me know here. Sincere thanks for all your help. Dragontales

the best thing to do is line them up than change the parent for each 1 to mike's feet then save them to the library with a different name, then you've got boots that will conform to Mike as well as Vicky Rob p.s select each boot seperately click on object on the menu choose change parent then choose the correct foot for each boot, just in case you needed to know how :) hope this helps

Actually, yes, that helps quite alot. It's something I didn't know. Too bad I'm at work, I'd be trying it out right now. Thanks again, Dragontales

heyas; i'm not sure that would quite work for conforming. if they are props (with inherit bends turned on), that would be fine. if i were doing it, i'd say bring in the boots, line them up and size them to michael's feet, then export them as a new obj for a new conforming cr2 made for michael. if you don't have anything that conforms to michael (or you have stuff, but it doesn't have feet), you can make a base conformer cr2 by following my painlessly easy conforming clothing tutorial ;)
