EASY BREAST GUIDES
The EasyBreast system is a zero system. It means it starts from zero and nothing happens until you move one handle.

THE CONTROLS
When you load the EasyBreast system on Victoria for the first time, you see many coloured handles showing up
It's important that you know what are those handles for, and the specific function each one has.  
The Red Handle:
This is the EasyBreast's main handle. The red handle moves the deformers around, affecting your V4's chest area. Almost all your workflow will have to do with this handle, any movement of this handle will have an effect on Vicky's chest. To keep things simple and intuitive we've decided not to include many dials, because the deformers obey to the Red Handle movements. If you pull the handle down, the V4's breasts move vertically, if you pull it to sides the breasts move horizontally. If you scale the Red Handle the breasts grow or shrink. If you rotate the Red Handle the breasts rotate. The Red Handle always produce symmetrical movements. If one breast rotate to left, the other does the opposite.  
What if you don't want simmetry? No problem, the small Red Handles can move the breasts independently :)
The Blue Handle:
This is the EasyBreast's secondary handle, but extremely important. The blue handle moves the deformation zones, if you were reading a book with a lens the Red Handle would be your hand but the Blue Handle would be the lens. Again we've decided not to include dials on the Blue Handle, If you pull the handle down, the deform zones move vertically, if you pull it to sides the breasts move horizontally. If you scale the Blue Handle the deform zones grow or shrink. If you rotate the Blue Handle the zones rotate. Like in the Red Handle's case, the Blue Handle always produce symmetrical movements, and again there are small Blue Handles to get non symmetrical effects if necessary :)  
The Yellow Handle:
Even if this Handle won't affect your workflow much, it's important - this Handle moves the deformation's pivot! What?? The origin of the deform effects start by this Handle. Extra cleavage, extra gravity, extra jump effects....can be done by the Red&Blue team, but will look better if you move this handle a bit ;)  

THE POSES
There are some special poses we need to understand to use the EasyBreast at full potential
!Magnetize Clothing
First and most important Pose of the pack. To be applied on clothing, with V4 already loaded with the EasyBreast on her. It transfers the magnets' effect from V4 to the clothes  
Type 1 and 2
Nothing else than two function types, to offer more posing and fitting options. You can swap between them anytime, and see if the different effects range suit your scene better.
Clothing Fits
It may happens the clothing don't fit well on V4's breasts simply by clicking the !Magnetize pose, specially when combined with morphs or under extreme shapes. Then you may need to use one of these poses to increase the power of the magnetizing feature.
Effect Strength Poses
These poses alter the magnets effects and zones falloff. A light effect means the breasts will behave softly to the Handle's orders, the effect starting at the center and loosing strenght when propagating. A strong effect means the breasts will behave almost like a block, like made of one piece. The default, or medium effect is in the middle of the two extremes.
Other Poses
The rest of poses are not so special therefore I will make only a quick remark. There are Enable/DisableNipple poses to hide that breast part, specially useful in case of nipples poking through the clothes. The On/Off poses to activate or deactivate the Fixer and the Center, the Reset poses to reset the small Handles, the big Handles or all the Handles, and to reset the Fixer. Finally we have the Hide/Show poses, to hide and show the handles by groups or all at once. The Poser users will find the Handles are invisible to render, but the DS users will need to hide them before rendering using thoses poses. Or you may simply want to hide them after posing the breasts.

USING EASYBREAST

So it's time to jump to Poser or DS!

 

Step1: Loading figure

Load a Victoria4 by DAZ. It's important that DS users disable the "Auto Magnetize" feature of their program before continuing, to do so click F2 and under Content Manager uncheck the "Auto Magnetize" box

 

 

Step2: Loading EasyBreast

Find your EasyBreast, DS users will find it under Characters and Poser users under Props, and load it with Victoria selected. Because it's a zero system, nothing happens until you start moving handles.
 

 

Step3: Using EasyBreast

Now we can start moving handles :) You will find the nipple dials inside the Red Handle (named Breast)
 

MAGNETIZING CLOTHES

Let's load some clothing!

 

Step1: Loading clothes

Select a clothing to use with Victoria and load it. In the image the V4 bikini from the Victoria4 basic wear pack. It doesn't conform well because we previously moved the handles

 

 

Step2: Magnetizing Clothing

Select the clothing and use the !Magnetize Clothing pose on it. Mmm it doesn't fit perfectly...yet
 

 

Step3: Using Poses

Select one fit pose, for exemple Clothing Fit Light, and apply to clothing...that is
 

THE FIXER

The EasyBreast system comes, as like any of my characters, with a useful tool called the Fixer.

 

Step1: A job for the Fixer

Now let's grow the size a bit and put the breasts toguether. A pokethrough appears in the middle of the breasts area, and it's hard to fix with the Fit Poses. This is a job for the Fixer
 

 

Step2: A job for the Fixer

Select the clothing and load the Fixer, a red F icon will appear. Double click on it to access the dials
 

 

Step3: A job for the Fixer

I've used the Center dials built in the Fixer, the Center In/Out dial at 0,5 and the CenterZoneXscale at -2,2 to smooth the effect a bit. As you can see, the pokethrough is now fixed.

Happy rendering!
