Product: Shell Casings Vendor/Creator Davo or Davorama ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for puchasing the "Shell Casings" Package from Davo ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Shell Casings package features ejected shell casings in center fire 9mm and .223 style ammunition. The shell casing figures are a group of 15 or group of 30 shell casings that are linked together as an easypose bending and twisting chain. Also included are some additional figures of scattered shell casings on the floor in the 9mm and .223 style shell casings. As an added bonus, there is a belted ammuniton figure in .223 style bullets in an easypose linked chain. Use these figures to enhance your gun fighting renders and artwork by provided a much needed element... ejected shell casings! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- System Requirements: - PC and Mac compatible - Requires Poser 5+. - Has not been tested in DazStudio, but should work in DS with minor adjustments -Some material nodes/properties will have to be adjusted for DazStudio such as raytrace reflection mapping nodes and bump mapping nodes. - All files in .obj, .cr2, .png and .jpg format. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To install, open the zip file and extract the contents (make sure "use folders" option is checked) to the location of your poser.exe file. For example: c:/program files/curious labs/poser 5 Do not include "runtime" in the extraction path, it is already specified in the zip file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The figure files will be extracted to the Figures/Character library: Davo / Shell Casings / This contains all the shell casing type 1 and type 2 figures and the belt fed ammo figure ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Features: Belted Ammunition: This is an easypose chain of belted ammunition with the shell 2 type casing (which resembles .223 style ammunition) The first casing on the string has the easypose controls for bending and twisting. Place this figure on/near your belt fed projectile firing weapon. Use the easypose controls on the first bullet to bend and twist the belt of ammo. Shell 1 (Long and Short): This shell casing resembles a center fire 9mm style shell casing. This is a string of shell casings, each attached to a non-rendering sphere that displays in poser as a wire frame. There is a diamond shaped wireframe (non rendering) at the bottom of the string of casings, this is the Null base of the figure, use it to move your whole chain of casings around. This segment also has bending and twisting easypose dials as well as a "Shell Separation) dial that will increase or decrease the spacing of the casings. Each actual casing can be independantly moved and rotated away from the control sphere. This allows for more accurate spinning and variations of the ejected shells. There are 2 versions of this figure, the Short version has 15 shell casings, the Long version has 30 casings. Shell 1 - On Floor Set 1 and 2: This is a set of spent shell casings that are laying on the floor (Set 1) an another set of spent casings on the floor plus some that are bouncing off the floor (Set 2). There is a 'Scatter' morph on each figure that will spread the distance between the shell casings. You can populate the floor of your scene with several of these figures for a very cool scene that conveys a lot of bullets were fired. ----morph on each figure: Scatter----- Shell 2 (Long and Short): This shell casing resembles a center fire .223 style shell casing. This is a string of shell casings, each attached to a non-rendering sphere that displays in poser as a wire frame. There is a diamond shaped wireframe (non rendering) at the bottom of the string of casings, this is the Null base of the figure, use it to move your whole chain of casings around.

Shell 2 - On Floor Set 1 and 2: This is a set of spent shell casings that are laying on the floor (Set 1) an another set of spent casings on the floor plus some that are bouncing off the floor (Set 2). There is a 'Scatter' morph on each figure that will spread the distance between the shell casings. You can populate the floor of your scene with several of these figures for a very cool scene that conveys a lot of bullets were fired. ----morph on each figure: Scatter----- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RAYTRACING: Raytrace properties have been built into the material zones on these figures. In order to take advantage of raytracing in Poser, you will have to 'enable' raytracing in the render properties settings. I suggest a minimum of 2 raytrace bounces. More bounces will slow down rendering times. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please enjoy and have fun with this product.
