This is my 1st successful attempt at fixing some of the problems involved with texturing for nude Meshes, originals or clones of Maxis meshes or parts!

Ever notice when working on projects of this sort that its nearly impossible to get the textures to align neatly once wrapped over the body??? Especially noticeable below the knees.

I believe this is because of the way the UV Maps are made. The feet are always disconnected from the body, causing much distortion.

ie...
#1. Limited possibility for details on shoes, &...
#2. A horizontal line above the ankles where the texture is vertically displaced (ill take note to make a screenshots....however you're not likely to encounter this unless making skinny/tight fit jeans like these)

Ive done countless tests using feet, shoes & boots from from both male & female Meshes until finally i came across these HiTop shoes that make texturing a little less frustrating!

Seeing how their so rounded its alot easier to customize your shoes! Also, the vertices of the top of the shoes are higher up on the UV Maps...so you will not encounter any texture displacement above the ankles! And your final little plus...these shoes resemble a cross between Nike's AirForce HiTops & Converse's boots...which are both very popular amongst us Emo/FashionCore Kids! YAY!!! :D

Finally, i am not completely satisfied with this as a fix for these alignment problems! Though its a great way to cloak them...it doesnt get rid of them at the source! I intend to continue learning as much as i can about Meshes, UV Maps & working your textures around them! So come every once in a while to see if ive posted any New Meshes!
