Think J.Jonah Jameson, not just a skull cap. I have one already, but it's not quite looking the way I want it to. I'm planning to use this iN Poser, and would actually prefer an old-style geometry-based hair to a hair-strand file. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciate it.

    COOL. This is what I'm looking for. Anyone know if there is an M4 fit?

    Any hair (well almost) can be fit to any figure by parenting it to the head instead of fitting it to the figure, and using the y-translate and x/y/z-scale functions to get it to fit.

    Thanks for the tip. I prefer to save time by purchasing something already created specifically for the figure I'm using. But, when I can't find what I'm looking for, I will definitely start mixing and matching.

    I have a similar issue.  I'm trying to get Daryl hair (M3) to fit genesis 3M.  I worked with the x/y/z functions and was unable to get a good result, but I am a complete newbie so it is probably due to lack of knowledge/skill.  Does anyone know whether "wear them all" for gen 3M is the right product to make the Daryl hair fit gen 3?

    @Worlds_Edge ytran - 0.61, ztran - 1.26, xscale - 93.2, zscale - 111.1, subdivision applied (select hair/item in Scene tab, then Edit>Figure>Geometry>Convert to SubD).

    I have Wear Them All, but I just loaded the hair with Michael 7 selected, and it parented itself (no Autofit dialog box appeared, nor was there a right-click option for "Fit to").

    It does work well with Michael 7, I hadn't tried that.  I'm trying to fit to genesis 3 M.  I used the numbers you gave me and they are certainly a better starting point than what I had before.  I'll keep playing around with them.  I'm not sure what subD is, but I will research and try it, thank you!

    You also say that you have Wear Them All - am I correct that its purpose is to do what I want to do?  In case I'm not successful, it's always good to have a backup plan.

    I've seen a couple on rendo for m4 but they all seem pretty expensive.
