Pic Description: |
I saw this free combine harvester port by Stefano96, found myself humming a silly ditty about roller-skates...

Free Noesis ripped the SFM format to an OBJ mesh and a mapped JPG texture set. When I tried to match them, I realised there were two object ''groups'', for main body and cab-glazing, but only one ''material''. Looking in OBJ file with free Wordpad found only a single USEMTL call. I changed this to match its group''s name, added a second for the other material.
The texture map is ''busy''. To get the single LHS ''loading'' and 2+2 ''driving'' lights to glow in Poser using ''super-ambiance'', I had to mask them to white, with rest black. Took me several tries to get it right. As lights were hued amber to match the body, would have been *much* easier if I''d looked on the alternate red, green or blue texture maps. I''ll post ''finder'' map in comments.
After several tries, OBJ imported to Poser at ~0.75 % of original scale. I twirled it level, dropped it to ground. Applied the Diffuse and Normal maps to body material, then the light mask to ''Ambiance'', dialled that up. The glazing was a balance between transparency and a green hue to show it was there.
I posed LaF on the top step in her ($$) Rendo ''combats'', iterated lighting until scene looked okay. A 14 pixel-sample test render showed no problems, so I got serious. This is superfly, 96 pixel-samples, progressive, 1024 vols & buckets, using both my twin graphics cards. |

Here's finder map for those lights. Lower left is the single side-light. Centre does both front spot-lights. Blocky right does both driving-lights...
Oh, and I figured the tune link: Melanie sang sassily about her brand new roller-skates, the Wurzels did hilarious adaptation for combine harvester...

Cool, a harvester! Nice find, thank you kindly Nik ! ' Poser-rigged' farm implements seem to be rare; at least here's the OBJ !
