Re: Beach Bum BoB

As for the facial morphs, I used a program called Argile. you can find a trial version of it at http://www.n-sided.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. It works perfect with TS. You will have to export your model as a OBJ, but when you import it back into TS you will find th...
