Application Instructions:


Using the package with V4 or V4WM and Poser:


1. Start Poser and load V4 into the scene.

2. Open the Pose library and then open Simona.

3. Load the Simona Head INJ (nothing will happen yet). The REM file can be loaded to remove the morph.

4. To load the Simona morph load Simona Full MORPH. (You need to have V4 Morphs++ installed) OR to load the Simona Elite morph load Simona Elite MORPH. (You need to have V4 Elite Morphs installed)

5. The head morph can be used on its own by loading the INJ pose and then selecting the whole body of the figure and opening the INJection Channels:Community menu. Set the value of the morph to whatever you require.

6. Load one of the MAT poses to add the textures.

7. The make up options can be turned on by loading the Simona MU1-MU4 MAT poses after loading the Simona Full MAT. The Simona Full MAT features realistic eye textures that look best when the eyes are not moved. If you want to pose or animate the eyes, please load the Simona Alt Eyes MAT after loading the Simona Full MAT.

8. The Simona SSS MAT poses work the same as the normal MAT poses, but include advanced material settings for Poser 9 and above for creating very realistic skin sub surface scattering.



Using the package with Victoria 4 in DAZ Studio 4 or newer:


1. Start DAZ Studio and load V4 into the scene.

2. Open Poser Formats, My Library, Pose, Simona.

3. Load the Simona Head INJ (nothing will happen yet). The REM file can be loaded to remove the morph.

4. To load the Simona morph load Simona Full MORPH. (You need to have V4 Morphs++ installed) OR to load the Simona Elite morph load Simona Elite MORPH. (You need to have V4 Elite Morphs installed)

5. The head morph can be used on its own by loading the INJ pose and then selecting the whole body of the figure and opening the INJection Channels:Community menu. Set the value of the morph to whatever you require.

6. To load the textures and material settings open \Presets\Materials\Simona\

7. The make up options can be changed by loading the Simona MU1-MU4 MAT poses. The Simona All MAT features realistic eye textures that look best when the eyes are not moved. If you want to pose or animate the eyes, please load the Simona Alternate Eyes MAT after loading the Simona All MAT. There are both .dsa and .duf file formats for all content. dsa files are for use in DAZ Studio 4 or older and duf files are for use in DAZ Studio 4.5 or newer.
