Usage Tips and Limitations

The LotusDream hair is a complex and versatile hair, modeled and rigged with flexibility in mind.
You will find several bones inside the hair and veil to allow the back part and braid to be poses separately from the main hair.

Getting started

Load your V4
Load the LotusDream hair (and perhaps the veil if you want to use it)
Conform hair (and veil)
Pose V4
Use the control dials in hair (and veil) located in the 'neck' part of both figures to adjust shoulder parts, back parts and perhaps braid part
Use morphs in hair (and veil), but be careful with control/ morph combinations - see notice below!
Apply MATs to your liking
Render...

The hair and braid
The braid is set up as a separate body part of the hair. Therefore it will NOT follow posing and movement of V4 after the hair is conformed. You will have to translate/ rotate it into position manually. Several controls in the 'neck' part of the hair were created to help you with this, alongside with a few adjustment morphs.
Use the translation/ rotation of the body part 'braid' itself first, then use the 'braid top' controls and morph for finer adjustments. The other parts like 'braid 1' etc are for movement and posing.
When using the bones of braid and hair together with the existing morphs like 'Wind', you might find some distortions or even breakage in the mesh. This is a technical problem and I suggest you use morph/ control combinations sparingly and carefully.

Generally, the additional bones of the shoulders in hair and veil are meant for fine tuning and adjustment. Smaller values, combined with the 'shoulder up' etc morphs, will give you best results.

The veil
The same things which apply to the hair are valid for the veil as well.
In addition to the mentioned morphs and controls, the veil also comes with two adjustment morphs for the veil top to fit the upper end of the braid when posing.
'Adjust braid' and 'Adjust braid top' will expand and/ or enlarge the bulge of the veil to fit the top end under it. If you still find pokethrough, try bend the top of the braid forward or sideward.
