Action Star Poses question - strange body morph?

This has been bugging me for a while - anyone who has the Action Star Poses for V7 http://www.daz3d.com/action-star-poses do you think the body morph changes when applying the poses?
Specifically pose "Action Star Relaxed".
I can't tell if it's the pose that makes the body look weird, or if there is a body MORPH change (as in, the pose was saved with body morphs included)
Attaching screen shot - the G3F on the left is in the pose, the G3F on the right has not been posed, just rotated so you can see what I'm seeing.
The breasts and the abdomen adn butt on the left figure look NOTICEABLY different.

It does look like there are morphs being applied. Try restoring just the shape on a figure after applying the pose and see if it changes anything.
Edit > Figure > Restore > Restore Figure Shape
Hmm I tried that and the figure didn't change at all.
There has to be SOMETHING cos that is the most awkward looking pose ever - her abdomen/belly is drawn in and when she is clothed, her boobs look ginormous.
Actually having said that, I've just discovered that "restore shape" doesn't work on ANY of my G3F's morphed bodies. At all.
If the figures were memorized at any point, restore wouldn't change their morphs. Maybe try zero figure shape instead after loading the pose.
Restore figure will restore it to its memorised state. So if you load Olympia 7 dial out Olympia and restore it will reload the Olympia default state.
Zero will restore it to base Genesis 3 Female. It definitely looks like it has something dialed in.
You could also apply the pose to default Genesis 3 and under parameters select Currently used and it will display all of the dialed in morphs.
It's possible the poses were saved with some shaping parameters. If thats the case it should be reported as a bug.
I didn't know about the "currently used" in parameters, thank you for that! I did that but all it showed was "Mouth Realism 100%", "Navel 100%" and "Render SubD Level 2"
HOWEVER I did notice that when I turned Hidden Properties on, I can see that for the Pelvis, the X Scale, Y Scale and Z Scale have all changed and their values are not the default 100%. The same iwht the abdomen lower and abdomen upper and the pectorals. Is it normal for the SCALE of those things to change for a pose?
edit: i tried some poses from different pose products and I'm not seeing the X, Y, Z scales change for those body parts, so now I'm wondering if THAT is the problem?
Hi Jakiblue, sorry for the trouble you're having.
There shouldn't be any scaling & translation issues, however I just re-downloaded them and I'm having the same issue on some of the poses.
I'm emailing Daz now, but I think the offices are closed.
I can PM you a zip with the correct files too if the office is closed for New Years.
wheeeeeeeeeeeeee! :) I was asking here cos I wasn't sure if it was a problem before I submitted a bug for it - couldn't work out if it was just my eyes or what. LOL.
I haven't gone through all the poses, just that one in particular so don't know if ALL of them do it. Would LOVE to get a zip of the fixes in case it takes a while for DAZ to push them out as I'm wanting to use the pose in a promo in the next couple of days. Thank you!!! :)
+10, now THAT'S customer service. I haven't looked at the G3M poses that I got yesterday yet...but I have even higher hopes now.
Hold Ctrl when clicking on the morphs then in the pop-up un-check all the scaling, translate and morph boxes.
Recieved an email back from Daz and they are updating it asap, I guess there's at least a skeleton crew working at the office over the holidays after all.
@Jaki, PM me your email and I'll shoot you a zip just to make sure you have it for your promo.
I just went through all the G3M poses and they checked out ok. If you notice anything strange though let me know and I'll look into it.
you're wonderful, you know that?
just pm'd you, let me know if it doesn't arrive cos the new pm system confuses me LOL!
