Ups. Being no native may I ask whether "being super anal about sth." is really used these days or if damn autocorrect has made the day?

And regarding the morph for the hair: Yes, please make it available :-)

The only thing making me hesitate for a minute in purchasing the Isolde character is wondering what hair that is that she's wearing.....

Customized it a bit. I guess I could make the morph available. Why does this make you hesitant though? Isn't the "dress up" up part half the fun?

I just did a quick convert and saved the log, but apperently it's too long to copy-paste and it's not an allowed file type for attachment.

I don't need the complete Daz log... just from when CC starts through processing the clothing.  You can copy them out of the log and paste them into a TXT file

That's whar I did and it was too long. Here is the end part only:

Ah... I've checked the 4 corrective morph from Z Leggy Goddnes, they're set correctly. So only if you dialed the morph: Z Leggy Goddess Shape, those 4 corrective morph would be triggered. So, in general, if you still need Z Leggy Goddess Shape, you need to import this morph and the 4 corrective morphs into Bender.

And ha ~ that Pose comes from G9 Starter Essentials product, as attached.

BTW, thanks to Padone，he has already reported the above issue and Thomas confirmed it. Well, let's see if he is willing to fix it... hoho ~~  https://bitbucket.org/Diffeomorphic/import_daz/issues/2073/jcms-are-wrong

To me, I personally don't really care if they're 100% same or not (even though technically they could've been the same...), because I rarely rarely compare them after importing the figure assets in to Blender for work.

Has anyone tried Mixamo Rigged G9? Sounds interesting, but does it works? Usually the compatibility between mixamo and DAZ characters reaches up to g2, to transfer Mixamo movements to DAZ for g8 you need to import them with g2 and then transfer the movement from g2 to g8 with the appropriate scripts (this is the only method I know) . Also, is there anything similar for g8?

Yeah, that's right. To me, most likely it's an issue of orientations but the only way of identifying that is to open DSF (or DUF file if you never saved morph assets with version 4) , check and compare the orientation formula values and fix them if they're really the culprits....

That... will be a cumbersome task...

You are right. Making a morph from the state the character is currently in will be easy, and there's no need for the head split for the morph as the head & body are inseparable to me.  With that option available it's probably not worth investigating the cause too far as it'd take much longer than diching the model & starting again.

Is there any reason why you can't just simply delete the head geometry above the box and save the figure with the head-parented box as a scene subset? That would work for any figure's head morph.

I like elegant solutions, but when you can brute force it in a fraction of the time...

It's likely that a corrective morph to make blink work with a shape or character is applying when it shouldn't - crosswind's test ought to find that. I think at least one character did have this issue, but as I recall it was fixed in an update.

Well, if so, it should be very easy to fix it, just like the common workflow:

- reset your Version4 figure's pose firstly, set Resolution Level to Base, export it to OBJ file.
- load a G8F or G8.1F base figure, load HeadSplit dFormer on her. Import OBJ via MLP with the option of Attenuate by + HeadSplit dFormer, so as to have separate Head Morph and Body Morph.
- Adjust Rigging to Shape. Then load that Pose Preset (expression) for testing. If there's no issue, ERC Freeze the Head and Body morph. Save morph assets.

Then you can further save a new version of this char.

I have some older toon eye shaders that I play around with once in a while, that only render well in 3DLight (and they worked fine with G8).  I know there is a utilty that allows the transfer of legacy UVs to G9,  but I'm going to guess that even using that utility, the eyes are going to be problematic since G9 handles eyes very differently than G8 and older figures.

Has anyone successfully applied legacy toon shaders to the G9 eyeballs (I read up on the geometry and I don't think it's possible)?  At the moment I'm considering performing some old school mad scientist eye surgery and swap out the G9 eyeballs for G8 eyeballs, but is there an easier way?  I need the eyeballs to render well in 3DLight and the new G9 eyeballs I don't think will work.

I've picked up a number of general-purpose morph packs for G9. It sometimes takes quite a bit of trial and error, but I can generally find some combination to flatten out just about anything.

It's probably the Orientation, each bone in the base figure has a specific orientation (six to choose from), and by changing them in a morph it can really screw you over when you pose the figure.

I have all of the expression packs from newguy as well as this (there's a feminine one too)

And I've found these all to be invaluable. I find myself using G9 now almost exclusively for main characters because of the expression possibilities that I never was able to achieve before. And they transfer beautifully to blender via diffeo to animate, and they transfer back to daz perfectly if I want to render in Daz.

Yes crosswind you're righteous, I tried "Breast Gone" and "Breast Small" slider on many vendor G9 characters but with no avail.. I don't know if it's vendor or developer fault.. So I sculpted my character in Blender -as you suggested- and brought it back via "Morph Loader Pro". I hope DAZ guys find a solution for this.

Actually it's not really a fault... Technically, the vendor could create an MCM (Morph Corrective Morph) for each character, just like what I did, but practically it's not really possible... so that's why we better learn how to fix it.

You did it well!

Bought this since it includes a G9 version which is supposed to work as well on the ladies. Unfortunately there is no morph to fully do away with the bulge of the thong. There is a "Gen Small" morph, but this one does not completely remove the bulge.

So if SilverMoon is maybe reading: adding a dedicated "no bulge" morph as an update would be great!

I added a dynamic surface to the fabric and dforced the cloth as a workaround, but the mentioned morph would be good nevertheless.

+1 agreed. The beauty of G9 is the versitility.

Yes, another one.

This is an oddity I've come across rather than a problem, and I'd appreciate it if anyone could give me a steer as to what may have caused it.

3, maybe 4 years, ago I had a custom G8F character sculpted for me by TritiumCG. This character has gone through a number of iterations and now is in my Scene Subsets at version 4.  The morph is in the data directory as it should be, I just add different clothing and slightly different textures/ body morphs active from the DAZ body morphs packs to refine the look a little with each version.

This morning I experimented trying to make an expression pose, doing it to Cherubit's Milan G8F. Much to my surprise this came out well enough for me to save as a pose preset.

Which I then tested on my Version4 custom character. Not everything worked properly. The eyes went left, not right, and up, not down. But on the version 1 custom character which I loaded in next, the eyes were correct, as they were on 2 more G8F characters and a G8.1 character.

I must admit I don't know where to start looking for the cause of this. Especially as the Version 1 character worked after being loaded into the same scene as the version 4 character. I can work around it, but it's as if the up/down and side-side for both eyes have been multiplied by -1.

Odd, very odd. Any ideas? Any known causes that I'm unaware of?

If you could suggest something, please let me know.

Richard.
