Start Poser or DAZ Studio. 2. Empty the scene and then open the Props library and then TheBoss. 3. Load the props that you require. 4. *IMPORTANT* The MAT poses for the guitar will NOT work in Poser unless a figure (M4, V4 etc.) is loaded. 5. Open the character library and then TheBoss. 6. Load the Strap figure (see below for posing details). Using the props/figures with a character: 1. Start Poser or DAZ Studio. 2. Empty the scene and then load M4, V4, A4 or H4. 3. Zero the figure and turn off IK. Turn off any posing limits for the figure too. 4. Open the props library and then TheBoss. 5. Load the props that you require. NOTE: Select the character before loading each prop to make sure the props are smart propped to the figure correctly. The guitar is smart propped to the hip and the plectrum is smart propped to index finger 3. 6. Open the character library and then TheBoss. 7. Load the Strap figure. 8. Open the pose library and then TheBoss. 9. To change the look of the guitar select the figure first e.g. M4 and then the guitar prop and finally load the MAT pose that you want to use. *IMPORTANT* If you don't follow these steps the MAT pose may not work. 10. Select the figure and then load one of the poses. The M4 poses work with M4 and H4 and the V4 poses work with V4 and A4. 11. Select the Strap figure and load the matching pose to pose the strap. 12. To pose the strap manually when you create your own poses it's best to start with bone_1 and position it using the dials so it connects with the hook on the top of the guitar. Next move along each bone one after the other and pose them using the dials until you are happy with the fit and curve of the strap. Good luck trying to get the other end to match up with the hook on the bottom of the guitar, it can take a while :) 13. I recommend rendering with full details, shadows on and polygon smoothing turned off. 14. Have fun with the props and poses! Tips and limitations: The guitar prop has a lot of material zones and there are texture templates included for all of the parts that need them. This means that the prop is incredibly customizable by making your own textures using the templates. Please feel free to redistribute any textures you make, either commercial or free. If you have any questions just drop me a line at the email address above. I hope you enjoy this product for Poser and DAZ Studio!
