How to share custom morphs?

3Diva

I've made some custom morphs in ZBrush, both partial face morphs, as well as full character morphs for G8F. How do I share the morphs? I've loaded them from ZBrush, saved them as Morph Assets - now I just need to know how to share them. What folders and files do I need? Is the original OBJ needed to be included? Etc. 

Is there a tutorial on how to share custom morphs?

Here are some of the morphs: 

Three full character morphs (so far, I plan on doing more):

Some nose morphs:

    

 

Any help you guys can give me on how to share these (and other morphs I'm making), is much appreciated. :)

Nice job on the noses. Somebody else in the Freebies section wrote up a nice mini-product creation for sharing guide a few months back but I don't remember their name.

Did you do them on the base figure?  If you did them on a character, you need to bring them in with MLP using reverse deformation, but not on the base figure.  Save them as shape assets.  There will be no user-facing files, though you can create presets for them.

Your files should be in Data > Daz3D >  Genesis<version> > Female > Morphs > <folder with your name> > <folder with product name> > <your morphs>

You know how to set up when you bring in with MLP?

And, no, no obj files (especially if done with a character).

Thanks! :) If you remember the name, please let me know.

Thanks, Cris. I wish there was a step by step tutorial. There would be more PAs joining the Daz dev community. It's not easy learning this stuff and the tutorials I could find where either really old or seem to leave out information.

I'll try and figure it out. :)

Me too.  I remember seeing that tutorial and can't find it now either.  I totally agree that its a bit of struggle to track down the info needed.
