    I haven't found my answer yet and I have searched, The Griffin for Big Cat 2 says it requires the Griffin Wings from Daz Horse 2 and links to it. But then in the second description paragraph the phrase 'griffin wings' is highlighted and leads to a different griffin wing product which is more expensive than the Griffin Wings for Daz Horse 2.

    Which griffin wings does the griffin take?


    I don't know how this info got put down as the griffin wings for DAZ Horse 2, This is incorrect. It should say "Griffin Wings" only. I don't know how that got put in. This was done a year ago, so there may have been info lost. The Utube video spells it out pretty clear.

    So my apologies it was not done by me!

    i'd be excited to see a small domestic cat also. The Mill big cat, and the little cat are very old, and are definitely showing their age.

    ...yes, when will we see the Little Kitties2 (and please, make them load in at the proper size)?

    In the description of the product he says, "I have also created a special fit pose for the Griffin Wings so it's easy to set up, even with the matching presets." and links to http://www.daz3d.com/griffin-wings

    Anyone have it installed to see which wings it works for or is it both?

    Did you check this in poser by any change ! I'm trying the Griffin Wings for Daz horse 2, and can't say it's a drop and drag process. So if people own Griffin Wings hey don't need to buy "Griffin Wings for Daz horse 2" in QA it was tested with the Griffin Wings only, and the Pose preset is for the Griffin Wings not the Griffin Wings for Daz horse 2. As the horse wings don't work in poser.

    If you have any question about how the Griffin for Daz Big Cat 2 works check the Utube Tutorial

    Just a request that if we get cat armor can it scale a bit to fit over fur? :)
    But i'd also LOOOVE some big cat armor!

    Hm well not sure how thatd work without the use of dynamics, as technically, the fur would squish beneath it... but it will have adjustment morphs, which would prolly be enuff to fit it (hopefully without floating) Or to the contrary, morphs can be done to possibly make the fur squish in the right places. Not sure, Id have to check it out better.

    I meant the LAMH fur. I know the fur would squish in and i could brush it out a little but it still won't be skin skin tight. I'd have to brush the fur tighter beneath the armor. :)

    i can't deal without LAMH O:-)

    My first render with these nice cats :)

    Choices

    Story: Working with these mighty cats had been part of the job description when he accepted this undercover job, actually befriending them had not however and now he no longer knew what he wanted to do. He had never regretted working in the special service, but he had always felt something missing. These weeks working as a big cat handler had been the best in his life, and now his time here were coming to an end. He smiled as the cats near him noticed his mood and he gratefully accepted their comfort, he needed to decide where he actually wanted to stay, a choice that was not as easy as it might sound....

    Items used:

    FW Darc

    Daz Big Cat 2

    Cattitude Poses for DAZ Big Cat 2

    Magic Falls

    Grassy grounds

    Streetwear Jeans

    Basic Hair

    FW Dan (dogtags)

    Advanced Spotlight

    LB's Potted Palms

    Yesterday was a crazy day so I have not been on my computer to try out any of the Big Cat 2 stuff. Right now I am at the library but will try to play with the wings and the Big Cat 2.

    On a side note will there be a hippogriff made for the Horse 2? or is there already one? Sorry for the side note

    These look great. Have the old ones and have not installed them yet. I would not hesitate to buy this set and install it instead...looks so much better.
    Is there a bundle price for them or one expected to be available soon?
    Still working in Poser7 and feel left out with all the DAZ new stuff. Too bad not available for Poser as a native install. has anyone tried this with the DSON converter/ installer (though still not sure how that converter actually works just know I can't use it unless I have Poser 9).

    Before this gets to a LAMH thread (which I love) I'm not sure if we should be staying on top of the awesome cats rather than LAMH tech discussion, which probably should be in the LAMH thread or PM or something? Because this is specifically the Big Cat 2 discussion and don't want it to get locked before I even get the big cats ;) heh.....
    hope that made sense, i'm a tad sleep deprived with Christmas real life stuff goin on....
