Yes, I've been meaning to make this for a couple of years now but work isn't always kind, or I get distracted by something else. However it just so happened I had art for art's sake planned so was able to fit this in.
I took Wilmap's Cherokee Tear Dress for Genesis (found here: https://www.wilmapsdigitalcreations.co.uk/view_product.php?id=145) and created several materials for it as well as gave it dForce settings. That's all this is.
The dForce settings worked for the most part. However. The bottom ruffle is not attached and turning down the dynamic force in that area only created draping problems. To compensate I turn the bottom ruffle invisible and created some dress morphs so that, when used, the dress will drape into a shape similar to what I'm used to seeing at Powwows.
The materials are set for iRay. This means you might absolutely need Wilmap's lace settings for the fabricator on at least one dress, and the iRay Fabric Basics set. I did try to replace with my own materials as I could. I also made a vain attempt at a displacement map with sloppy thread stitches - lol. Even with sloppy sewing the dress looks better than if I'd tried to make it myself in rl.
I did try to make one or two that would fit the textures I had made for the dancing shawl even though I can't seem to find the Optitex biblical shawl anywhere anymore. Some of you might still have it, though.
Now for the readme text and disclaimer:
If problems crop up I will try to find the time to fix, but my work life forces me to offer no promises. Can't hurt to try!
I will not change my personal library hierarchy for your convenience. You should find them under: Libraries -> Props -> ! Wardrobe -> ! Native A. I am not sure if my zip program did that properly but that's how it should be.
Made with Daz 4.10
Taput ni once again to Wilmap for making this dress. Usually when I have made requests in the past I've had my face ripped off. She needs to be commended forever and ever for her generosity. « Less
Recently got dForce working. Got a lot of catching up to do...
