MATERIALS
- Every effect is a separate geometry-shell layer over the character's own skin: the original skin maps and shaders stay untouched; eye and eyelash materials are not replaced.
- Clear water tears with Fresh, Wet and Drying settings; crying makeup and redness colour layers; 6 tints multiply the makeup colour (Original Color resets it).
- Texture maps: Crying FX 465 maps (2048x2048 x120, 4096x4096 x345); Crying FX 2 460 maps (2048x2048 x115, 4096x4096 x345).
- Backscattering 0 on every layer. Designed for NVIDIA Iray.

SHAPING
- The layers are parented to the figure and follow its shape morphs, expressions and pose (blink, jaw open and head turn are part of the package tests).
- Left tears, right tears, makeup and redness each sit on their own shell offset, so left + right tears and both packs stack in Iray without hiding each other.
- Optional 3D tear relief (displacement) for close-ups, off by default.
- Added a geograft after the layers? Click any preset of the pack again and the layers leave the graft uncovered.

TECHNICAL
- Figures: Genesis 9, Genesis 8 Female, Genesis 8.1 Female, Genesis 8 Male, Genesis 8.1 Male with their standard UV sets.
- Polygons: no new mesh - each layer is a geometry shell of the figure's own mesh:
Genesis 9: 25,156 polygons / 25,182 vertices per layer (base resolution)
Genesis 8 / 8.1 Female: 16,368 polygons / 16,556 vertices per layer (base resolution)
Genesis 8 / 8.1 Male: 16,196 polygons / 16,384 vertices per layer (base resolution)
- Tested: package-only load tests of the bundle zip in DAZ Studio 6.25 and DAZ Studio 4.24 (every preset applied on 5 figures). Layer stacking checked with Iray renders on Genesis 9, Genesis 8 Female and Genesis 8 Male in both versions.
- Standard UVs only, no alternate UV layouts. Stills only, no animated tears. With overlapping tears from both packs keep 3D tear relief off or adjust the shell offsets.
- Already own one of the packs? The bundle installs the same files over it.
- Preview characters, skins, hair, clothing and lights are not included.
