The package consists of 4 types of tape props: large and small round tapes, and large and small cut pieces of tape. Realistic iray material makes the tape props look lifelike in renders. The props are easy to use even for those who don't have much experience with dForce. Simulation Preset is also included in the package. All you need to do is to apply the simulation preset, position the tape prop close to the figure and hit the "Simulate" button, the tape will contract around the figure, and you can enjoy the realistic result. You can scale the props in any way you like depending on what you'd like to tape. This product is not figure dependent in any way, so you can now tape any part of any figure in any way you like. How To Use: Load the tape prop you'd like to use. Position the prop close to the figure but make sure that it is NOT touching the figure in any part. Double-click on the "All Tapes Simulation Preset" icon to automatically adjust the simulation settings that will suit the tape props simulation. Hit the "Simulate" button (Simulation Settings pane). Allow it to simulate for a few frames (10 frames are more than enough, even 5 frames can probably give you the result you need, you can always change the number of frames if you need to and you can choose which frame suits your needs best). If you need to return the tape to the default state, select the tape, and go to the main menu Edit/Object/Geometry/Clear Selected Objects. NOTE: If you are using the tape on sharp objects (with very small polygons) and you experience some pokes through, go to the Simulation Settings pane/Collision and up the number of Collision Iterations (Per Subframe) and then repeat the simulation. A greater number of the collision iterations will improve the collision between the prop and the figure but it will also slow down the simulation so don't put a larger number than you actually need. NOTE 2: To get the best results make sure to position the tape near the figure, try to position the tape in a way that all parts of the tape are as equally near the figure as possible, the parts of the tape positioned further, will contract more before they reach the figure and therefore appear more narrow in the end. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT THE TAPE IS NOT TOUCHING THE FIGURE BEFORE YOU CLICK THE "SIMULATE" BUTTON! If some part of the figure is in your way of positioning the tape near some other part of the figure, you can always switch off the visibility of that part until the simulation is over. NOTE 3: If you need a larger diameter of the tape, use the Scale X and Scale Z sliders, you can also use the Scale Y slider to get a wider tape if you need it (Parameters/General).
