Measure Metrics / Figure Metrics update?

I got the MM update on DIM.  Although it doesn't have a specific G8 setting, it will measure G8.  However, the Figure Metrics' resizing morphs seem to be disabled.  I'm assuming that means that the G8 meshes aren't yet included. 

Any idea when and if this will be updated for G8F?  I use Figure Metrics all the time for my own characters.  So, I'm really hoping the G8 update will be available soon.

Man, I'm really hoping I don't have to rebuy every single addon / converter / utility to use with G8.  I was so glad that I'd finally gotten my toolset pretty well completed.  I'm already wondering when Facegen will come out with the update for G8.

    FaceGen should work with G8 I think. Just use the G3F and point to the G8F folder instead.

    I was wrong about FaceGen working with G8F but you can do SickleYield's character transfer tutorial to transfer G3F FaceGen Morph to be a G8F morph. Here is the post with the link to that tutorial in another thread:

    Thanks very much.

    I just transferred a FaceGen G3F morph to a G3F morph very easily using SickleYield's tutorial.

    It is listed under Head as per her instructions and I did set limits on it in the slider section to 100%.

    SickleYield Character Morph Transfer Tutorial

    I tried to do the other turorial elsewhere but the were to vague or the DS UI had changed or lot's of little caveats. The one linked to above still works & is very quick & concise.

    I was going to make a PDF with screen captures for you but after doing Sickle yield's tutorial there wasn't much point as it is more concise and enough but for all but beginner DAZ Studio users. If you like I can still make a screenshot tutorial though.
