Western Saddle & blanket prop & maps by Lyne's Creations. Saddle files used with permission of Scott Ayers - www.Pixelatious.com  Thank you, Scott!

This freebie is hosted at and was downloaded from PlanIt3D -  http://www.planit3d.com
with much Thanks!

Installation:
Unzip using folders to a temporary folder. Inside are folders named Articulate Prop and western saddle. There are jpg maps for the blanket and saddle, a saddle and blanket pz3 and this readme.

Install the folders/files as follows:

Place the folder named Articulate Props  with the files: newesternsaddle.cr2 and newesternsaddle.rsr into your: 
Poser-Runtime-Libraries-Character-Articulated Props folder.  If your zip un-zipped properly you should have a folder called Articulate Props with these files in it. Then you can just copy and paste it into your Character folder and it will as if it can over write. Say yes.

Place the folder named western saddle wtih the files files named westernmap2.obj and westernmap2.rsr into your: Poser-Runtime-Geometries.   
Important!  If your zip was unzipped properly it should have a folder named "western saddle" in it. You can copy and paste this folder into your Geometries folder. (the folder name must be exact!)

western saddle maps - Place these maps into your Poser-Runtime-Textures folder. The blanket map and the western saddle map in highest quality jpg format. 
Poser will ask for the maps as a tif, so just say cancel and no to the messages, and later assign the maps in the materials editor.

The saddle in your poser library will NOT have the blanket with it! If you open the western saddle pz3 file, it will have the blanket parented to the saddle, ready to put on your horse. You will still need to assign the maps. "figure 2" is the saddle, and blanket6.obj1 is the blanket.

Generally when assigning maps in Poser 4x, be sure to check the box that assigns the material to the whole figure!  For Poser 3 you will have to change the jpg map back to a tif or bmp.

These files MAY NOT BE SOLD in any manner, but may be shared with friends, and used for any projects, personal and commercial, with credit to Scott Ayers and Lyne's Creations, appreciated. 

To clarify- commercial use for IMAGES & ANIMATIONS only - NOT the maps, morph targets or obj's themselves.

Enjoy, and any questions, feel free to ask! I refined Scott's saddle mesh a little bit, made it a character, with the stirrups that can bend out, forward and back, as well as a "long" dial to lenghten the stirrups to fit your rider. The blanket and saddle may have to be adjusted in size and some post painting may be needed, as they do not fit the poser horse exactly.

REDISTRIBUTION or THE SALE OF THESE FILES IS PROHIBITED.

Enjoy, and any questions, feel free to ask!
