I was also seriously pissed by my inability to put clothes designed for one figure on another figure.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Eight and a half years later, gay and lesbian poses have appeared slightly in mainstream markets like Renderosity and heavily in porno markets like Renderotica. The autofit function in Daz Studio 3+, and\/or the Clothing Room in Poser Pro 10+, and\/or PhilC&#8217;s Wardrobe Wizard, and\/or Evil Innocence&#8217;s CrossDresser [okay, now it&#8217;s XD 4, to be cooler, I guess] allow users to fit almost all clothing items on different figures, though special things like therianthropic parts remain a challenge. I guess I can say that one of my greatest sources of digital frustration has disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I have a new one: clothing fit across the breast. Daz&#8217; autofit does pretty good work in clothing conversion, but it can&#8217;t handle the pectoral area well. Conversion of clothing for prominent breasts to clothing for minimal breasts = weird peaks where the breasts used to be. Conversion from clothing for minimal breasts to clothing for prominent breasts = shrink-wrap effect with no realistic draping. Conversion from clothing from figure A for prominent breasts to clothing for figure B with same = shrink wrap and no draping.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there are the most problems with the two types of body shapes I most use: a) flat, minimal breasts [e.g., Jareth] and b) prominent, fat, sagging breasts [e.g., me and pretty much everyone else]. In the first case, rippling and puckering develops around the pectorals as autofit tries to flatten out all that &#8220;boob geometry,&#8221; as it&#8217;s referred to on the Daz forums. In the second case, autofit tucks the clothing up under the breasts and refuses to drape it. This is why vendors make a small fortune in products like &#8220;breast fixers,&#8221; &#8220;fit control,&#8221; and other suites of projection morphs to forcibly shove the mesh into a more realistic position. And, of course, prominent breasts [and fats] distort clothing meshes and textures unrealistically.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, besides HAIR, one of my prime motivations for learning how to model is BOOBS. Specifically, I want to make some basic clothing that accommodates prominent, fat, sagging breasts without shrink wrap. I also want to make some basic clothing for same that doesn&#8217;t get stuck up under the breasts. Of course, I haven&#8217;t seen anyone else achieve this, but I also haven&#8217;t seen anyone with the same level of frustration as me. And frustration is a powerful motivator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About eight and a half years ago, I failed spectacularly in my attempts to find mainstream gay or lesbian content, specifically poses, for digital models.
