How to use Geoshells

kgnotg

Hi guys I am a total amateur in this but I do want to complete one picture. 

I have gotten to the point where I have the caracter positioned but had to add an item on his chest from an addon. This item comes grey and I was told to apply geometric shell. 

I selected the item, clicked create new geometric shell and selcted defualt settings and then ok. 

I want is the item to becaome the same skin as the surrouning area.

A s a result a new column was created but not much else changed. 

If there is another eaier way to cover the grey item I am open to know about it. 

Cheers.

Is the item designed to work with a Geoemtry Shell? if so it should have a materials preset, select the Geometry Shell and double-click the preset.

If I am reading that correctly OP never added any material. (I selected the item, clicked create new geometric shell and selcted defualt settings and then ok). This sounds like nothing was added to the shell to make it have similar textures to the surrounding area.

It turned out that there was a scripted shell I needed to run which was in the same folder.
