yeah... I did intend to make it punny and I am not going to get into that debate. Anyhoo... what is The Tailor ? is it freeware ? what is the homepage for it. I am waiting for the UPS guy to deliever my Poser 4, should be here any minute now, been using Poser3. regards, bob

When you get Poser 4, you will be able to do conforming clothing.
Clothing is usually formed over a copy of the base figure it is for.
The clothing is more like plate armor than cloth - on its own, it does not stretch. Morphs do this.
Once conformed, the automatic morphs of the base figure called JP (joint parameters) (magnets really) will also move the conformed garment with the joint - the failure is called poke thru - skin showing through the clothing.

If the figure has been morphed into a character with a different body shape, clothing will not fit the new character - unless it has morphs to match the character morphs.

Doing clothing morphs to match a figure is a long, tedious and endless process, using a modeler, or Poser magnets.

The Tailor ( for sale at DAZ) is a program that looks at the morphs for a figure and looks at a garment made to conform to that figure, you select a figure morph, or a combination of them - figures out a plus/minus shell of where the morphed verts are and uses that to generate an automatic morph in the clothing item to match.

The clothing morph is literal - no finesse - it will almost always need touching up to look smooth - especially if the figure morphs are extreme.

You translate Wendy Woppers to a sweater, the underside of the sweater as morphed, will be a jagged nightmare.

But touching up those morphs is way easier than doing it from scratch.

it's another of the childrens toys that they use when they want to play dolls.

Actually, the tailor is the key instrument in Daz's conspiracy to stop Rom Knights from distributing his freestuff...

I think we may not need tailor anymore when p5 comes out !!!

@ martian manhunter - that is one of the funniest comments I have ever read!!!

Martian, that was too funny!

Martain - the first time I have actually LOL'ed while reading this forum.

-bikermouse revises statement of 7/03/02. Tailor may be even more necessary when P5 comes out. -bikermouse walks away restraining giggle.

Let's make things simpler. Tailor allows you to fit clothes to figures whose bodies have been morphed. Without Tailor, we'd have more naked people, or their body parts would be sticking out. Tailor is now exclusively sold at DAZ3D. I have a Tailor tutorial on my site. **** PS, you might learn to spell my name right.
