HOW TO POSITION THE WOMANS
An Everyman's Guide
1. You need
ModGuy's Loader.
2. Open the Loader folder, the same one you'll find the Loader.swf in when you want to play SDT. Open Modder.swf.
3. Once you open Modder you'll see the following interface.
The four buttons on the bottom, as well as the POSITION bottom in the middle right, are the ones we're looking at today. I've circled Knees in red - let's start with that. Click the Knees button.
The girl's knees are now attached to your cursor. Technology! I've circled where my cursor is in Red so you can see exactly where the cursor attaches to the Knees. To place the Knees, simply put the cursor where you want them and left click once. The Knees will then anchor to where you clicked and you can continue doing other things.
4. We can do the same with the other parts available to us. At the time of writing, Modder supports Knee, Arm, and Hand placement. Let's try moving the Arms now - make sure the girls arms are set to On Legs, then click the Arms button, circled in Red below.
Like the Knees, the girl's arms are now attached to your cursor at the wrist. The function is exactly the same as the knees - move them where you want, then left click. The Arms will anchor to that point. I've circled in Green where my cursor is.
You can go on to use the Hands and Flip Hands buttons at your own discretion - when you click Hands, moving your cursor rotates which way they're pointing, and left clicking sets them in place. When you click Flip Hands, it flips their facing. You should be able to figure out how to properly handle these by now.
5. Now for the final part - you can save this position and load it in the Loader whenever you want, with any character. To do this, once you're happy with your position, click the POSITION button above Flip Hands.
You'll get a prompt asking you to save a Position.txt file. You save this into a mod folder and load it like any other Loader mod - if you're not familiar with how to do this, here's a quick summary:
- Go into your Loader folder
- Open the Mods folder
- Make a folder in there named with what you want your position to be called (boundblow1, for example)
- In the original Mods folder, open Mods.txt
- On its own line, enter in the name of the folder you just made, a colon, then the name again. This is so the Loader can recognize it. In our example, we would enter boundblow1:boundblow1.
- The position of where you type the mod name in is its position in the list - if you want it at the top of the list, type it in at the top of the txt file.
- Save the txt file.
Your folder is now ready to go - save the Position.txt in there. So, going back to our original example, we'd click POSITION, then save Position.txt into the boundblow1 folder that we made.
Now open the Loader and go to the pop-out mod menu on the right. If you did it right, you'll see your mod folder there - click it and it should load your position. For our example, I've circled it in Red.
The girl's arms must be in On Legs for her arms to be positioned properly.
That should about cover it. You can play around with different positions and make as many as you want. It's worth bearing in mind that the Position will differ depending on your screen zoom - for best results, make sure you're saving the position at the largest zoom so you can load it at the largest zoom easily instead of trying to remember what zoom you were at when you saved the position.
Have fun!
