Anyone having this G3 Female Problem?

Just started having this issue today. I loaded up a G3 Female Kallisto character. When I loaded she has huge chubby cheeks.

I loaded some other g3 female characters and exactly the same. I also loaded the g3 base female. Same thing. G3 males are normal.

Also all g8 females are normal. Has anyone seen this and know a fix? really weird issue.

Here is an image, on the left G3 female base, and right is Kallisto

    Could be you have a specific morph that is always on. It happens often with freebies, check the hidden section also.

    You are right, I just figured it out, which morph. I didn't realize the Kaitana character I bought does this. I thought the chubby cheeks looked familiar. lol

    That's weird that it was dialed in for g3 female by default. I will have to send a message to the creator of that character if that's the case. weird.

    Thank you FSMC for the help.

    This appears to be a very very common issue in which other morphs get somehow saved to the base genesis morph. 

    I have the same issue with Genesis 3 Females. I had to hunt down all the morphs that where effecting it (in the parameters tab) and dial them all out to zero, then I made a shape morph with those morphs dialled out. So now every time I load G3F I use that shape morph to dial out the other morphs. I know there is another way to fix it, but I don't know how.

    @Divamakeup "I know there is another way to fix it, but I don't know how."

    I believe you should be able to dial the offending morph out then resave G3F base. I would be inclined to uninstall both the offending morph/character and G3F, the reinstall G3F base and go from there.

    The problem has nothing to do with the base shape. It's a morph with a non-zero default value, and the problem is contained entirely in that morph's file. My prefered way to solve it is to locate the offending morph file, open it in a text editor, and change the value to zero.

    +1 for text editor fixes.

    sometimes the interface just doesnt have a way.

    Anyone have a recommended text editor? I have a few files id like to fix.

    Thanks all for the help. I will check that out. I don't see Kaitana a offending character. I think she is quite cute. Yet I for sure don't want her to invade all my G3 females though. lol!  I will try to edit the morph file.  awesome help my Daz people!

    Not true when people have saved the morph over the base file. This is often the cause of the issue that the Op is dealing with.

    So you mean the Genesis 3 female morph base was altered? I will have to check that out.

    Ok , I fixed it. I went into the data folder and found the morph files for Kaitana. almost all of them needed to be edited. I set all the values to Zero. and it works now. Weird.

    How did you save them and fix them?

    Never had this problem with Kaitana. I purchased and installed her back in 2016 though. There must have been an undocumented update that messed things up.

    I go to edit the morph file in a Notepad++ and it just looks like an alien language. It's complete gibberish. What am I doing wrong?

    Sounds like it's a compressed file. Try using an unzipper on the file and see if you can read it then. I use 7Zip, which works well. If you only have standard Windows unzipper I think you can copy the file, change it's extension from .dsf to .zip and unzip that.

    What I did was go into the character that is causing the problem. which is in data/people/genesis 3 female/ (authordirectory)/(whatever character)/

    there should be some .dsf files  open those up with wordpad or whatever text editer. Then scroll down to morph and look for the value text and put it as 0 for each file. If they need to be of course. This worked for me , befere Hamelon gave me a fix for Kaitana.  This should work for other characters as well.

    Thanks so much for this info. I was going nuts trying to figure out why all my Gen 3 Females had chipmunk cheeks : ) It was the Kaitana morph causing the problem. I uninstalled, but plan to re-install and try the text editor zero out trick. Thanks again!
