Electric Bucket Bike's Pose for Victoria 8.1 & Genesis 3, 8 & 9
Hello,
The pose is the one created for Victoria 8.1, for the render #CarryGiftsOlympics.
I used it as a base and converted/adjusted it for Genesis 3, 8 and 9, with both genders for all generations and Genesis 9 Base as well.
I didn’t have the time to adjust the poses for Genesis 9 Anime, but the included manual has a couple of tips on how to make these changes yourself should you use a pose with a shape with small or big differences compared to the eight supported shapes.
All pose files are standard pose files: I thought about raising the bike’s seat instead of lowering taller character’s hip but it would have required either providing a pose for the bike for each supported shape required seat's adjustment or hierarchical poses. In the end, I chose the easiest solution.
The freebie’s name in Smart content is using a plural on ‘Poses’ to future proof the name and make it, I think, easier to update it, should I find new ideas for a pose with the bucket bike.
Warning As far as I can tell, the forum will change the name of the zip file attached to this message: DIM is picky about how a file should be named and will not recognise the randomly generated name created by the forum as a valid name so will not try to open the archive.
To avoid that problem, rename the downloaded archive to:
ELOR00000005-01_ElectricBucketBikesPosesforVictoria81Genesis389.zip
If you’re using a Mac, Safari may have extracted the archive automatically. If it’s the case, you need to compress it because DIM will only work with a zip archive. It’s possible to disable automatic extraction but I don’t remember how (I disabled it years ago…).
What’s included:
- One pose, available for Victoria 8.1 and Genesis 3, 8 & 9 base shapes.
- A manual with a couple of advice on how to install the freebie and how to use it.
- Metadata and all files needed by DIM to install them, almost as if it was a product sold by Daz.
What’s allowed:
In short non-commercial and commercial renders. More information in the manual.
If there is any problem (either related to the pose files themselves or a mistake in the manual, including a spelling mistake), feel free to report them here.
Comments
I was a bit worried when the forum started to misbehave just as I clicked on save after attaching both files
I just downloaded the archive, tested it and after renaming it, DIM did see it as intended.
Thank you for the poses and the useful manual!:)
You made an 18 page PDF for instructions on using a pose? is that correct? have you been taking all your medication? just kidding. thank you for the nice pose. I think some PAs could learn from you, what I would give for a PDF for some of the things in the store. But If you ever model anything, I expect a 600 page PDF.
" I think some PAs could learn from you, what I would give for a PDF for some of the things in the store."
I must agree! Sometimes I wonder if some PAs think their product should be like a computer game, with the user being expected to find hidden clues, and work out how to do what seems an impossible task for themselves!
