Hi cat women….
I see Melody and Micah for A3/H3 are onsale once again at RDNA… but I have always been confused about these products and the addons (The Furries?)... What products do I need for cat women and beyond? Does anyone here recommend? There are some bundles too… Would love to get them furred in Carrara but not sure where to start… I guess I’d like to get the whole gang… What bundles should I grab that don’t duplicate…?
Thank you for your time… I’ve always found this product line kind of confusing….
Love all the images. Thought I’d post a couple of my cat people pics. They are actually filtered Furries promos.
To answer holly, Melody and Micah are essentially A3 and H3 with a new head and tail added, so they can wear A3 and H3 clothes. As has already been mentioned, you need RTEncoder to decode them, since the original body mesh belongs to DAZ. Furries for Melody, Furries for Micah and Furries Bundle (includes both Furries for Melody and Furries for Micah) include morphs and face and tail shaping poses for Melody and/or Micah. No textures come with them. The Melody version requires RTEncoder to decode. The Micah version uses PMD injection, and does not require RTEncoder.
Furries’ Furs are texture sets, and usually include some new face presets (requiring Furries for Melody, Furries for Micah or Furries Bundle), as well. However, Furries’ Furs Chihuahua does not include face presets since it is a Real Deal. The extra faces to go with the chihuahua, as well as a set of horse/donkey faces are separate Real Deals. Then there is the Furries’ Deer set that has deer face presets, a deer collar, deer antlers, and textures for the collar and antlers. The texture used on the deer is not included, but is part of the Furries’ Furs - Skunk and Squirrel set.
If you were to purchase something, you’d definitely need Melody and/or Micah for the base model. To get other animal shapes, you will need Furries for Melody, Furries for Micah, or Furries Bundle. For textures, you will need some of the Furries’ Furs sets.
Hope that explains things. If you have other questions, just let me know.
