Start Poser or DAZ Studio. 2. Empty the scene and then load V4 or V4.1 and turn of IK and zero the figure. 3. Open the Character library and then Luthien. 4. Load the items of clothing that you want to use *IMPORTANT* Make sure you select V4 every time before you load an item of clothing. 5. Parent each item to V4. You can also magnetise each item to V4 with the V4 magnetise poses (supplied with V4 Base). 6. Select V4 and then open the Props library and then Luthien. 7. Load the smart props that you would like to use. 8. For an example of the kind of things that are possible with the outfit you should use the included poses, lights and cameras the first time you try it out. 9. Select V4 and then open the Pose library and then Luthien. 10. Load Pose 1. 11. Select the Cloak and load Cloak Pose 1. 12. Select the Dress and load Dress Pose 1. 13. Open the Light library and then Luthien. 14. Load Light 1. 15. Open the Camera library and then Luthien. 16. Load Camera 1. 17. Render the scene with the highest render settings and shadows turned off. 18. You can set the Cloak to invisible and repeat the steps above with the second example pose etc. 19. Bump maps in DAZ Studio and Poser 4: In DAZ Studio you will need to go to the Surfaces tab and select Advanced. Select the material zone you want to change and scroll down to the bump mapping options. Set the strength dial to 200% and the Positive dial to 0.5 In Poser 4 you should go to the surface settings menu and experiment with bump map strength settings to get the result you like best. See your instruction manual for more details. 20. I designed this outfit specially to make color change very simple. I included several MAT poses to give you some options right out of the box, but it is easy to change the colors manually to give you infinite possibilities. 21. MAT Poses: Select the item you want to change and then open the Pose library and then Luthien. Load the MAT Pose for the item you selected. Remember if you want to change the colour of the smart props make sure you select V4 first and then the prop or the MAT will not work. 22. Manual color change "Infinite Colours": Select any item you want to change. Go to the material room or surface settings menus. Select the material zone you want to change for the item. Select any diffuse color that you want to change the item to that color. The possibilities are infinite! 23. If you want to pose V4 manually or use body morphs then follow these steps: It is best to make V4's legs, feet and hips invisible for best results (see your manual for instructions). Pose V4 and/or use the body morphs you would like to use. To match the items to V4's pose and body shape simply select the whole body of the figures or select the smart props. Use the morph dials to fit the items and get different effects. There are lots and lots of morphs so take some time to experiment with them all. You can also scale the smart props or move them around to get a perfect fit using the dials. Tips and Limitations: I included templates for all the items for you to make your own textures or transmaps. You can give away the textures you make for free or you can sell them.
