Subject: Create single mat pose for multiple hair props


MNArtist ( ) posted Mon, 11 August 2014 at 11:33 AM · edited Thu, 16 May 2024 at 3:35 AM

Apologies if this has been covered, but I haven't found it searching through forums (though a very old, similar thread at RDNA).

I want to create a single mat pose for multiple dynamic hair props associated with one character. This is an animal, so there are about 25 separate body parts. I can create the mat not problem, and have that saved, and can apply it individually, but I want to create a "group" for lack of better term, for all the hair props and be able to change them all at one time to the same material (I have 2 color variations of the "hair.").

Does anyone know of a solution for this? 

You can see a render of the figure/hair props I'm working on here:

if it helps clarify the situation at all.

Am using PoserPro2014, Windows7

Thanks!

Save it as a material collection.

Have tried that. It won't recognize all the different props. Have even tried saving out the animal with all the parented hair props as a new cr2 - which creates a material zone called "hair" in figure's material room settings, but it still won't apply to all the props at once.

The only script that would be able to handle that is Bagginsbill's old VSSProp.  It was created for the purpose.  Unless there is something @ RDNA which works just as well or even better.

Well, if they're all being saved to the same material, there are also scripts that can do that sort of thing.

when you have one figure with multiple material zones and you want to copy the material of one zone onto a selection of other zones (instead of just all zones - and while keeping texture maps) then Snarlys EZMat can do that. It's free and worthwhile trying to see if it works in your case.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.

visit www.aRtBeeWeb.nl (works) or Missing Manuals (tutorials & reviews) - both need an update though
