Re: Nea with more polygons (WIP) *nudity
-----------------------------------
Here´s the promised test :

See any difference between NEAs left and right breast ?

No ? GOOD !   :bigrinnin: 

But lets peek under her skin :

I exported the chest to Wings3D and carefully subdivided her left breast.
Much to my surprise i did NOT loose the UV info.
Maybe the reason is that I only ADDED polys, and did not remove any original vertex.

Also the bending still works exactly the same like it did before, so it seems the JointParameters don´t depend on polygon count:

The original shoulder blends perfectly to the subdivided breast although the polygon count where the parts overlap doesn´t match anymore.

What IS lost is all the morph info, so if one would rework Posette/NEA completely
like this all the morphs have to be recreated from scratch.

Still see a lot of possibilities in this, especially for one off charcters.
