*MESHER'S RESOURCE* Hi-Res Bodyshape Poser Magnet Sets - New Sets added 2-11

[franciele]

War, I have a weird thing hapening with the Rio magnet. It's been doing it ever since I downloaded it but I keep forgetting to mention it. When I apply the magnet to the wavefront obj the thigh magnet explodes, if I close Poser and reopen the obj and re-apply the magnet it sometimes work some other times if I close the obj and reopen it a few times it will work too. I mean it works but with some work, just wondering what makes it do that. Any ideas?
None of the other magnets do it and I have all of them.

Yep, I see that a lot too, and with TMO's help I finally figured out how to fix it... if you go into the Properties tag on the magnet zone, there is a button to edit the Falloff Graph.  The problem is caused by the fact that I took the centerpoint out of that curve to make it straight... and for some weird reason, now and then Poser decides to freak out and make that curve shoot off into the stratosphere.  If you play around with the endpoints a bit it will eventually readjust itself to where you can stick a point in the middle, and adjust it again into a straight line, and it will be fine.  Here's a picture of what it should look like, just fiddle with it until it looks like that again.

Okie doke! I'll try doing that then. Thank you!

This is exactly the problem I was trying to tell you about Warlokk. Thanks for the solution.

Kurvy K isn't mine, it's the creation of Franciele over at FrannySims... you can find everything you need for her over there.  There should be a link to her site in each of her posts.  

[Warlokk]

Yes, she built it by making her own Bodyshape out of my base magnet sets posted here.  I just provided the tools, the creation is all hers...

[Warlokk]

Hi All--

I've posted the magnets for the new ToonGal bodyshape, check the main post!  

[franciele]

Yay! Thanks a bunch babe! You are my hero!

Question: What tutorial did you use to lean how to make magnets? I have Poser but I never use it exept to apply magnets. lol

Ok, shoot me if I'm being stupid but I'm lost. I decided to jump on the meshing bandwagon over the winter break and I did the meshing tuts over at mts2 using milkshape. But I honestly only want to do RIO stuff and that has poser magnets. I dl'd POSER 7 demo and DAZ 1.8.15, but with DAZ I don't know where to put  the magnets, it doesn't have a libraries folder and the menu comes up totally diferent from xenos' tut. Then with Poser I couldn't get a blank scene. I read both programs docs to figure out where I was wrong and searched for the correct answers I can't find them and I'm trying not to scream. I've been working on this since 8:30 AM. Please, please, please help a dummy. You can either PM me or reply here. I'd be ever so grateful

Hun, you have to delete the model that is loaded in poser and then fix the settings to make sure that it sticks ( menu< edit< gernerel preferences< document's tab< launch to prefered state ) and then you should have a blank window everytime And after you make the gmdc in meshtool, you can import it into milkshape to see if it explodes, rather that wait to see it in-game or bodyshop.

[jaccirocker]

Thanks MC, I'll try that. Have fun at the play tonite.

[jaccirocker]

Ok I did get it to work but it won't let me import in the demo-version and 250.00 is alot to cough up for a program, much less one I'm not sure how to use. Maybe someone can walk me through DAZ, or even using the magnets in milkshape if that's possible. Please

[Warlokk]

DAZ doesn't support magnets, or at least it didn't last time I looked, and Milkshape definitely doesn't... Poser is really the only way to go.  However, there is no need to get the newest one, I'm still using 6, and the magnets will work with 5, and those can be found for a lot cheaper.  The first Hi-res ones were done in 5, and I got 6 part way through that project, so both definitely work.

[jaccirocker]

Thanks War and MC, I'll try to see about finding those on the net tomm. Today was too long for me. I really and I mean really want to make a lots of stuff for RIO. And I feel like it's only fair that I get to it.

[jaccirocker]

Ok I've got Poser 6 installed now, I'm going to try the tuts. If after pullin out the last little bit of hair I have left, and still can't get it. I'll come back for help.
