Just picked up http://www.daz3d.com/wicked-women-2-for-v4
Aaand... I have no idea how to make it work. I have a Victoria 4.2 model. I double click !Wicked 1 INJ... and nothing happens. I select head, try that. Nope.
What am I missing? They are .pz2 files, if it matters

I think the key words to this is (.PZ2 and .PMD) I don't think DS handles PMD's real well, it prefers delta's
Oh son of a... I missed the 'poser' compatibility. DUH.
Yeah, I have this one in the wishlist until I could tell for certain if the Poser only was valid or another of those, "Yes, it's Poser only, but it will work in DS if you do this". I guess I can take it out of the wishlist.
I'm not going to bother returning it because it was cheap in some bundle and trying to figure out what I should get back is just not worth it.
But better be more careful next time. Sheesh.
Opening a Poser product with external morphs works, but PMD morph injection (= adding completely new morphs by loading a PMD) doesn't AFAIK.
Yep, same thing happend to me. I've noticed that there are a few RuntimeDNA products like that after I bought a hair bundle that I can't use in Daz apparently.
There was a plugin for Studio 3 that loaded PMDs but it was never updated for version 4. If you have access to a version of Poser that supports them (7 or later I'm sure does, earlier versions I'm not sure about) then load it into Poser, make sure that "Use external morphs" is switched off and save it as a new CR2 and that should work.
Once there was a PMD injector for DS. Does anyone know if it still exists?
there may be a way to do it in DS3 and export the obj and use as a morph target.
lots of work but it might work in the PMD injector is still available for DS3 and you own DS3.
If DS3 can save CR2 files you might be able to use that and avoid the whole obj and morph target method. Come to think of it if DS4 can open DS3 scenes (I think it can) then just load the morphs in DS3 and save the morphed figure as a scene. If you actually bought DS3 when it was available I think you can still download it from your product library.
For DS3 the Content Creation Tools would be required to export CR2.
DS3 downloads have been disabled in the store for some time. I have it in my product library, but it's only a content pack. At some point, the Content Creation tools were free for DS3. I have it.
The PMD plugin for DS3 works on pz2 files that call PMD morphs, but not on cr2 files. I tried converting an old model that has a cr2 with a PMD, but try as I might, it still didn't work. The Wicked Women says it has pz2 files with PMD, so it might actually work in DS3 with that plugin. I don't own the Wicked Women product to try tho.
I only started using DS with 4.7 or so, so... yeah, not an option for me. ;)
Oh, damn.
Just discovered I'd bought Wicked Women 2 at some point not realising it was really Poser only.
Shame there's no viabale workaround without buying Poser. Wicked Women is an excellent set of V4 faces with real character, and the second set look just as good.
iirc there was a domension3d utility at rendo coupd save a pmd binary file to a pz2
think it was binary morph editor
if you have Poser you could try saving a new cr2 or pz2 with the binary morphs turned off in prefferences
For what its worth, the first one

works fine in DS.
I didn't think DS read .pmd files. I own all those packs from when I tested at rdna, and they were only for Poser that time.
