Models Required: Any Genesis 8 figure Any addons required to use: None ====================================================================== ABOUT THE SET ====================================================================== This set of poses is designed to be applied to Genesis 8 figures. It depicts people in various positions around and in the pool and beach. LIMITS ON/OFF A couple of the poses move the figures beyond DAZ's default posing limits. When you apply these poses, DAZ will ask if you want to turn limits off. This will in no way have a detrimental effect on any other part of your scene so answer yes. CLOTHED OR NUDE All of the poses have been created for nude figures because it's impossible to predict the size or shape of all possible clothing or hair options. This means that hands may be closer to the body than they would if the figure is clothed. This is incredibly easy to adjust if you want your figures clothed. Simply select a view that is side on to any hands you may wish to adjust, then use DAZ Studio's Universal Tool to grab the hands and make any minor adjustments. FITTING TO FURNITURE - SUGGESTED WOKFLOW The poses were created using a set of fairly standard props. It is unlikely that they will all perfectly fit your furniture straight out of the box. I suggest that you start by choosing the Reset all pose to restore the figures to a zero AND zero position, apply your preferred pose, setting the figures to your preferred height for interacting with the floor, then position your furniture in relation to the figure. If the furniture is not the correct size, it is the far easier to make minor scaling changes to THE FURNITURE rather than scaling the figures. A DAZ STUDIO SHADER BUG Sometimes, when body parts are touching underlying clothing, the body parts pick up the shader properties of the clothing beneath. This is a bug with DAZ Studio. To overcome this, either move the body part away from the clothed part until it stops taking the underlying shader, or do two renders, one clothed and one nude, then composite them in your preferred image editor. *PRO TIP By default, no Poser/DAZ figures have geometry that responds to collisions with solid surfaces. Extreme poses with body parts pressing against each other, or any pose in which a figure is standing, kneeling or seated will look unrealistic if you simply position the body parts so that they simply touch the surface. For standing, sitting or kneeling figures, I always bury the figure a little way into the surface that they are in contact with. For extrememe poses or siimply when body parts are in close contact with each other, you may wish to use DAZ Studio's Deformers to depress the underlying geometry so that points of contact look more realistic. ====================================================================== TAGS ====================================================================== pool, swimming, swim, deck chair, deckchair, lounger, rubber ring, beach ring, dive, swallow dive, pike, breast stroke, freestyle, front crawl, bomb, lay, relax, recline, swimming pool, water, back stroke, float, sculling, scull, dog paddle, doggy paddle, ====================================================================== COPYRIGHT & LICENSE ====================================================================== Copyright (c) 2018 Ace Pyx.
