Instructions

This is a simple pair of flat-plane hinged wings with NO TEXTURES.  Download my freebie FractalWings or my (also free) MoreWings, & use the materials & masks (in the "textures" folders) from those.

I originally intended to make these fully textured, but that was 1.4MB vs only about 100kb for the untextured version.  So download my free wings & throw out the Poser stuff you can't use.
  
TO  APPLY TEXTURES:

First off, create a picture plane, go to the Materials Lab, make sure it's the Bryce default guy (leo),& under the little preview pic hit Copy. Exit back to the main workspace.

click on the triangle next to the word Create
to open the Bryce objects library.
Click on User to open the User Group of objects.
Click on Import at the bottom.
Find the wings4bry.obp file and click on Open.

Select the wings object & click the little M. In the Materials Lab, under the little preview picture, click Paste. Now click Diffuse, Ambient, Diffusion, Ambience, & Transparency (See settings1.jpg).  Then click P & the little button above it to open the Picture Editor. Load a wing texture in the first window, then the corresponding mask ("mask" or "TR") in the second window. Textures apply to both wings at once. Exit & go back to your scene.  You can delete the picture plane you made--it has served its purpose.  

You can apply the pix & masks directly without creating the picture plane first, but for some reason doing it this way eliminates the ghostly transluscent effect you sometimes get in the transparent parts.

Once you have the wings textured the way you like, save them to your Presets object library.



To 'flap' the wings, Ctrl/click/select each wing individually & rotate around the y axis.  DON'T UNGROUP! It's not necessary.
