My M4 wants to wear a Hawaiian shirt. Anyone seen one for him?

I can't seem to find a Hawaiian shirt (like Tommy Bahama) for M4. Or really for anything.

I swear about 50% of middle aged Americans wear them...including me :-)

Has anyone seen a clothing pack with Hawaiian shirts for M4?

    Similar thread from a couple of weeks ago.

    There just isn't that much out there for that product niche.

    One other thing you could try would be using a floral texture from Fabricator or some such on Cold Life. (I have no idea what's "cold" about a short sleeved shirt, but whatever.)

    If you have the excellent M4 Bad Guy outfit, grab the ones from this thread: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/22032/
    They also work with the Genesis version.

    Palm by Prae over at Renderosity

    Even comes with the textures and shorts.

    Maybe a Niche market, but there is quite a bit of content if you know where to look.

    Stylin' might work, again with one of fabricator's floral shaders http://www.daz3d.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=fabricator

    needs a shirt geometry meticulously uvmapped so a detailed print wouldn't have distortions

    I'm at least looking for a hawaiian friuit shirt texture for some freebie product. But I don't even see that.
    Hell, I don't even know where to look for a Hawaiian fruit shirt seamless texture in order to try making one myself!

    Simplest way is to texture a shirt with a seamless tile.

    1. Use a search engine for Hawaiian Shirt Seamless texture.
    2. Set the texture in the diffuse channel of the shirt's material zones.
    3. Set the Horizontal Tile and Vertical Tile value to 5 for both as a starting point. Different values will alter the pattern size.

    Here's a sample using the Stylin for M4 Over shirt. This shirt only has one material zone.

    If the shirt has multiple material zones, you may need to adjust each material zone's horizontal and vertical tile settings to have a consistent pattern size across all material zones.

    why does it need to be seamlessly uv mapped on seams?
    none of the clothes in my real life wardrobe are
    the fabric itself can be easily made seamsles in say Gimp under filters, map, make seamless
    (or presumably in photoshop if you have it)
    you can find an image of a palm tree and a hibiscus flower, erase the background with erase brush and just use them as brushes to stamp a fabric too.

    I started out my post with "Simplest way is to texture a shirt with a seamless tile." Which looks best, but if one doesn't care if the pattern doesn't match, then it doesn't need to be seamless of course. Note that no one posted reply to this thread since the last 10 hours.
