Thank you for puchasing The Terminus-4 "Hanging Pack" package from Davo To install, open the zip file and extract the contents (make sure "use folders" option is checked) to the location of your poser.exe file. 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: Terminus-4 Pose library: Terminus-4 / subfolders: Gallow 1, Gallow 2, Gallow 3, Gallow 4, Gallow 5 Long Drop, Gallow 5 Short Drop and Hanging Post Props library: Terminus-4 / (tight throat magnets) The Hanging Package contains: Special Note for all "hanging/garrote" poses: There are many ways to restrain your characters, hands tied in front or back, legs tied or not tied, etc. I don't provide restraints for the Terminus-4 packages, so the poses I provide for v4 are mininal, in most cases, only the hip placement and neck and head for the "after hang" poses. The poses are progressive, you should start with the before-hang, then mid-hang (if provided), then after-hang. I have supplied a "Generic arm-leg pose" folder in each pose library, this will allow you to apply some alternative arm and leg poses that will not affect the hip/neck head locations required by the before, mid and after poses. There are "zero" morphs also in the generic arm leg folder. The nooses are all parented to each gallow figure, not an actual part of the figure, you will have to apply the before and after poses the noose as well as to v4. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Noose-Long Rope: This is as stand alone noose figure. It has 3 bending styles that have easypose. The noose rings pose, the neck rope poses and the hanging rope (from noose rings to gallow connection) poses. The first noose ring is the parent base that moves the entire rope figure. The intention is to position the first noose ring and then position your character. Then you pose the neck rope around the neck and back into the base of the noose. You can then pose the hanging rope from the nooses back up to the gallow connections. The "mesh display" segments on the hang rope and neck rope are the easypose controlling nodes and they control 10 segments at a time. I feel that this is easier for posing since you are not trying to control the bending of the entire rope from start to finish. Noose-Short Rope: Same as the long rope except it has fewer hanging rope segments. Both nooses can be attached to just about anything. A Noose coil base (can be connected to a beam and re-sized, it also has a knotted rope stub to poke the end of the hanging rope into). A rope coil base is also provided, this can be placed on a beam and resized, then wrap the end of the noose rope into it to match. Gallow 1: This is a short drop gallow with add-on short noose rope. The drop plank, release bar and foot pedal are posable. There are pose files for V4 and associated poses for the noose. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Gallow 2: This is a short drop gallow with add-on short noose rope. There is also an add-on right and left noose base and rope. Pose files are include for the right, middle and left noose configurations in the pose library. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Gallow 3: This is a long drop gallow that works in conjunction with the execution room from the core pack. The "Floor 1" half of the floor of the execution room should be turned off (made invisible) and the room position pose applied from the pose library to position the room around the gallow. The trap doors open and close on the gallow and the release lever is posable. There is also an add-on right and left noose base and rope. Pose files are include for the right, middle and left noose configurations in the pose library. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Gallow 4: This is an adjustable height gallow with right and left noose options. Right and left noose ropes have been added to the gallow. Pose files for both sides are in the pose library. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Gallow 5 Short Drop: This is a stand along gallow armature and add-on short noose rope. Pose files are provided in the pose library. This gallow can be added to other items of your choice, just leave room for your victim to drop. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Gallow 5 Long Drop: This is a pre-assembled gallow used in conjunction with the scaffold figure. The drop platform has been parented to the scaffold as well as the Gallow 5 armature. The noose-long rope has been add-on. There are pose files in the pose library. If you want to add more gallow armatures, use the same pose files as in the library, just shift over the scaffold to the right or left before adding another gallow armature. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Drop Platform: This is a generic platform with posable levers, release bars and drop platform. The hinge on the back of the drop form is the base location, you can place the platform on the side of other object, just swing the drop platform open and closed a few times to get it positioned correctly. This platform has been added to the Gallow 5 long drop. Hanging Post: This figure has an add-on noose rope, adjustable height, posable rope winch and connection rope with side to side morphs. The add-on noose rope goes up and connects to the top of the post, then the extra rope segments are hidden inside the post. There are pose files for the noose and v4 in the pose library. See the Special Note above for v4 hanging poses. The v4 "After" pose requires the use of the "Tight Throat" magnets in the props library. Ramp Steps: This is a simple ramp with wheels and steps. It can be used well in conjunction with Gallow 4. Scaffold Tower: The scaffold tower has 2 platforms at the top, one is a solid platform, the other has a trap-door drop platform. The trap-door platform has been placed beneath the tower, of view, to use it, set it's "y" transation dial to 0.0 and move the other platform down and out of view, or make it invisible. The bracing on the front and sides of the tower can be moved up and down. The concrete blocks at the base of the tower is the parent base of the figure, move these to move the entire tower. You can adjust the height of the tower to make it lower to the ground, just select the posts and move the tower down, you can then reposition the side and front/back bracing out of view or lower. The scaffold railings can be removed or height adjusted if needed. Scaffold Stairs: This figure is used in conjunction with the Scaffold tower. It comes in to the rear of the scaffold. The stairs can be moved lower and sunk into/beneath the concrete pad at the bottom. This allows for height adjustment to match the scaffold if you adjusted the tower height.
