Tho I got lots of great response to the style and lack of style to this dress. The remaining fact is still there. I need to be able to conform this. I'd like the sleeves as posable, but i can just as easily create morph targets for them. Please! Any takers? I really have tried everything, but the right thing. I will struggle on, if not. James

Have you tried opening the cr2 file,in a text editor, for another clothing figure then changing the geometry references to point to your geometry file(should be 2 listings)? I used parts of the catsuit and miniskirt to make a long sleeved mini skirt this way and it works fine, just when you save it it saves as a text file all you have to do is change the ".txt" to ".cr2" manually and if you have a .rsr file for the dress delete it and load your .cr2 file from your library in poser. by the way nice dress reminds me of the witch? in snow white.

Yes Markm, Tried the trick of using another "cr2" file. I've got much closer, But things are still screwy. The forearms, hip, chest and thighs work, (well somewhat), but I can't get the shldr's and collar's to fit. I'm sure eventually someone will come to my rescue. Or maybe by then I'll figure it all out. James

Is the piece around her neck and head part of the dress or is that seperate?

Bushi, The head, neck and chest are object-group-painted. I just used the Group tool for those. So, NO, they are not part of the dress. James PS: Oh markm, the Evil Queen from Snow White was the inspiration.

Send me the dress and I'll give it a try. You have my email address from sending you Galadriel's.

Here's a strange thought - have you considered trying to use the CR2 for the figure wearing the dress instead of one for a similar piece of clothing?

Yes CEB. That was the first cr2 I tried. Well Thanks to PhilC I have now got it 99% done (he did the finishing touches on the Joint Parameters -- Yea Phil!!!), I still need to morph the sleeves and other good stuff. Be prepared! This will be available SOON! James
