PT Dress 2 Howto

Back

Extract the zip file to your poser 5 directory with the "use folder names" box checked. The files will be extracted at the right place in your poser download directory.

Launch poser and load your preteen character.

 

Dont forget to uncheck all the inverse Kinematiks parts.

Select preteen body.

Using Window -> Joint Editor, click on Zero Figure.

Then select the Downloads directory and open the Poserfashion Dir in Props.

Load PTDress2.

 

The  prop will fit exactly  the character zero pose.

Don't be suprised if the dress bottom is  up. Because of the dress shape, it is the best way for starting and be able to fit any character pose.

 

Now Go to the cloth room.

Create a new simulation with 60 frames. Check Cloth self-collision. Don't use Drape frame as your cloth already fit to the zero pose.

 

Clothify the dress

Click collide against, check your  figure (pretten), let the default parameters, uncheck "start draping from pose", check the 3 "ignore collision" boxes for head and arms.

 

Set your animation to 60 frames.

On frame 30, load the pose you want to work on.

(We keep always 30 frames free to allow the cloth to steady).

 

This item work well with the default dynamic parameters, so you don't need to change them.
