" If the hood does not fit the head, the head must be adjusted "
(old Shaolin proverb)


While working on Geo Shells - or rather: my BGC (Below Garment Correctives) - I also experimented with body parts other than the models' backsides. I was particularly interested in caps, hoods or simply oblique deformations. The result is now available




Here is some of the information that also accompanies the project:


HEAD SHAPE MORPHS

IMPORTANT: please use the "Preset Reset" preset first before assigning another preset

Instead of the presets below, you can also use the sliders to fine-tune the morphs according to your model. You can find the sliders here:

Model selected in the "Scene" pane -> "Parameters" pane -> Hidden -> Base Correctives -> Head -> TW ...


NO "HIDDEN" DIRECTORY?

If you do not see the "Hidden" folder, you will need to adjust your DAZ preferences. This is easy. With the "Parameters" pane selected, click on the side "burger" menu (4 horizontal lines) and select Preferences -> Show Hidden



DFORCE DROPPER

dForce Droppers are an easy way to simulate fabrics such as sheets, blankets or veils. It is very easy and quick to use if you follow the tips below:

1) Load the model, a pose and the desired head shape. Do not move the model to a different position. Now load the dForce Dropper (TW Veil). If the model has been rotated by the pose, adjust TW Veil to the orientation.

2) Switch to the "Simulation Settings" pane and change the setting "Initialization -> Start Bones From Memorized Pose" to "Off". Now click the blue "Simulate" button.

3) As usual, you can no longer change the pose after the simulation. To move / rotate the model and TW Veil at the same time, proceed as follows: shift-select the model and the veil in the scene and select Create -> New Group in the main menu. Select the new group for moving / rotating.
