see in Figure 1 the blue plane and the green plane?
just regular primitive planes
the black fabric is the bottom section of the mcjA3Maillot for Aiko3

you select the hip node of the maillot
you select the green plane
run a special script
and 2 seconds later you have on your disk an image like figure 2
each point is the location on the texture map of where the green plane cuts through a facet of the maillot
repeating this for the blue plane and the buttocks of the maillot
we get all we needed to build a transparency map like fig 3
which we apply to the opacity channel of the maillot and we get a bikini bottom which is not all warped wrong by the poser-rig !

so if M4 needs a pair of "man-pris" I just do this? Cool!
So in essence, you made a bikini bottom out of a pair of shorts? Nifty.
it should also be a big help when making ''body-paint'' things like stalkings
( it's somewhat related to the 3d-painting plugin i may do someday )
