For example: c:/program files/curious labs/poser 5 Do not include "runtime" in the extraction path, it is already specified in the zip file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The files will be extracted to: Figures/Characters library: LABWORKS/ CONFINED LAB (this contains Lab room in shadow and non-shadow casting versions) LABWORKS/ CONFINED LAB / ROOM EQUIPMENT (this contains chairs, computer equipment, pod, isolation chamber, etc.) Props library: LABWORKS/ CONFINED LAB (the tool arm smart prop add-on tools) Pose library: LABWORKS/ (this contains basic sitting pose for V4 and M4 for the chair and stool) LABWORKS/ CONFINED LAB (this contains m4 and v4 pose for pod) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Figure descriptions: Lab Room: Large lab room with 2 posable doors at each end. One of the doors has a cap (located just below the floor) that can be moved up to cover the doorway so it isn't seen. All walls, ceiling and light module can be moved out of view for good camera and viewing angles. There are 3 pre-parented wall machinery/piping props on 3 of the walls, these can be removed if desired. Note: There are 2 versions of the confined lab, one with shadow casting and one without. The non-shadow casting version allows light to pass throught the walls and ceiling without casting a shadow. This is helpful if you are not experienced with ligthing in poser. Corridor Cap: This caps the end of the corridor. (pre-parented to Lab, not in library) Corridor Module: This fits in the shape of the doors for the lab room. You can stack several end to end to make it longer, or cap it. All walls and ceiling can be moved out of view for good camera shots. (pre-parented to Lab, not in library) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Room Equipment descriptions: Chair: Basic lab chair with high back. The seat swivels and back can recline. (basic pose for M4 and V4 included) Console Set: This is a re-arrangable console set with center, left and right control pads, buttons and switches. You can move things around to better suit you. There is a central, non-rendering, wire-frame displayed sphere just below the central pad that can be used to move all the items around. All the items in the console set also come as stand alones that can be used anywhere. You can use several console sets on the workstation table. Chamber: This is an adjustable height chamber with upper and lower platforms that can move up and down, a glass shield that can move up and down and 4 lighted columns on the sides that can be moved out of view. This chamber fits in the middle of the confined lab and can hold different characters and figures of various sizes. Chamber Pod: This is a posable "life" pod that can fit V4 and M4 (pose files included). The lid can be removed, the nozzles can be adjusted. The M4 and V4 pose are for the pod stand alone. If you use the Chamber Assembly, you may have to move V4 or M4 up or down to fit in the pod. You should parent V4 or M4 to the pod after placing them. Pod Mount: This is a base platform with adjustable stem and mounting pad for the Chamber Pod Lamp and Tool Holder: This is a posable lamp with 4 armatures and lamp heads. There is also a central column that can move up and down. 3 of the larger lights on the central column can be moved out of the way and have the tool arms placed in them. Chamber Assembly: This is a pre-parented set of the chamber, chamber pod, pod mount and lamp/tool holder. Tool Arm: This is a flexible tool arm with easypose bending built into the segments. At the end of arm is a posable armature which has a tool head attachment. There are smart prop tools in the props library that will fit into the tool head. There are 3 tool arms in the "chamber assembly" already pre-parented. Stool: Small, posable stool. (basic pose for M4 and V4 included) Table 1: This is an adjustable height table with a transparent central screen that can be moved up and down. The screen is ambient lit to glow in a dimly lit scene. You can move the screen out of view if prefered. There is a non-rendering sphere (that shows as a wireframe in poser) that is the base or parent bodypart the table is attached to. This sphere will move the table around the room, but also acts as a center point for adding more tables together to form a circle. 4 tables in a circle will just fit around the Chamber without protruding into the chamber. Table 1 Assembly: This is table one with a pre-parented console set and chair. Xtra Consoles 1 - 8: These are stand alone modules from the Console Set. Some of these items have moving parts. Place these anywhere. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Props library: (confined lab folder) There are smart prop tools for the tool arm figure in the props library: Face Plate (for V4 or M4): This is a face covering device with 4 hose/wires. The wires all terminate in the same spot and are intended to fit into the "tool face plate conn" prop, which attaches to the tool holder. The face plates are smart props and will snap onto and parent to V4 or m4's face. Tool Face Plate Conn: this fits into the tool head figure. It has a couple bending morphs. You should adjust the tool holder and face plate conn to attach to the ends of the wires on the faceplates for V4 or M4. Tool Laser: A laser head attachement with beam length morph. Tool Syringe: A syringe attachement with plunger/fluid morph. Tool Tweezers: A set of tweezers with open-close morph. Wall Prop: This is a smart prop that attaches to the walls of the Chamber. These wall props are already on the Lab room walls. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is pack 4 of several LABWORKS packages which include: Pack 1: Chemistry Equipment Pack 2: Open Lab Pack 3: Small Equipment Set Pack 4: Confined Lab Pack 5: Large Equipment Set For more information, you may make an inquirey to Davo at: [email removed] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks again for your puchase, Davo / Davorama
