Save As -> Support Asset -> Prop/Figure
While some people might recommend wearables, this doesn't create a proper library entry. As such, it will bloat save files. Create wearable presets after a proper prop/figure save by all means, but not as a way of saving something you intend on reusing.

or be able to distribute it later for others to use?

Unfortunately, this will not be possible unless you have distribution permission for the model you are modifying.

Geometry edits cannot currently be saved in a way that does not include the original mesh data, which would violate most content licences. (Morph files have to be a special format that works in a way that only works if the user already has the base asset )

The example render of the above Genesis 8 Female shape

with the 100% fix from PhilW https://www.daz3d.com/face-transfer-shapes-for-genesis-8

and materials from https://www.daz3d.com/babina-8

and hair: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-camira-hair-for-genesis-8-and-81-females

Then I have used the same reference photo to generate Genesis 8 Female character with Face Transfer

and then I have used a fix from https://www.daz3d.com/face-transfer-shapes-for-genesis-8

The improvement is clearly visible.

Below is another Genesis 9 Female generated by Face Transfer 2

Clear the delta

how do i use it? will this fix the mouth?

when i try to use it ,it just makes the space i mark so it wont move with the morph.

isn't there a way to remove that from the morph itself so that the mouth won't change?

what you showed me in the image what did you do so the mouth will look normal, do i need to use blender?

I did the Face Transfer Shapes pack for Face Transfer, now looking into doing similar for Face Transfer 2. 

Thanks, you did the splendid job for the Face Transfer.

Would be interesting to see, what you will come with for Face Transfer 2.

 

Thanks for the compliment! 

Usually we have different ways for converstion, then fixing morphs will be a must. As the vendor "move" the mouth / teeth into the mesh of Head when sculpting this beast. If you wanna get it back, you have to "Clear the delta" on the converted beast's morph while selecting the polygons of mouth / teeth. Then refine it with sculpting / moving in external application like Blender, re-rig them necessarily in DS before ERC Freezing. I just roughly tweak them in Blender... TBH, that'll be a bit complex and cumbersome...

I wonder why you had to convert this Beast into G3M... because such a task would be much difficult than converting a human figure or an ordinary animal, let alone this Beast is peculiar in terms of "design"...

PS: I don't think your way of conversion is wrong. You just need to "fix" these things. I most time convert figures with Wrap but this Beast is unique, I just used the way of fitting first then export / import obj as a converted morph, nothing special.

I checked the file list on the product page, if they're EM3DCharmaine_body_cbs_shin_x155p_l and EM3DCharmaine_body_cbs_shin_x155p_r, the reason should be that EM3D Charmaine's body morph was not set as the 2nd stage controller on these corrective morph, thus the corrective morphs now works on Base figure and each character when you bend the shins of them...then the back of thighs and shins will be distorted. It's the issue from the vendor. You may send a ticket to Daz asking for the fix.

Or, you may drag the EM3D Charmaine's body morph to the 2nd stage controller of these corrective morphs in Property Hierarchy and re-save the morph assets...

A little fun with the Iden beard and NG's socks:

Thanks guys!

Your guy and the socks look really good.

Thanks! He's the first Face Transfer 2 character I finished and put into a completed scene. And as everyone knows, comfy socks make everything better.

I'm really not having much luck with conversions. I've tried through some batch conversions as wel as in scene from a G8 to G9 and the result vary from slightly deformed to wildly mangled. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong but I'm definitely not getting the results I see others getting. Screenshot attached from Agma 8 to Gen 9 (added some clothing for modesty).
I've tried answering the pop up question for zeroing as both Restore and Zero in case I'd picked the wrong option but this is generally what I'm getting.

Any ideas on what's happening here?

It's a hit and miss for me as well. Daz core characters like Charlotte 8 and Victoria 8 transfer well, characters from other sites fail miserably.

Not sure if it's true, but I found this:

- characters installed through DIM seem to work better than those installed through DAZ connect

I definitely agree that DIM installed characters are better.  Metadata seems better, etc.  (You can force convert to get around bad metadata)

- dial out HD morphs

Yes.  These cannot be converted anyway and just mess stuff up.

- 8.1 characters seem easier than 8 characters

I would not expect this to be true (and hasn't been in my experience)

From the manual:

The Converted Character’s Body is wrinkled. Because of the way that morphs must be converted, a morph that on Genesis 8 appears to only touch a small part of the head can affect the whole body on Genesis 9. You need to show Currently Used parameters to show all morphs on the converted character. Then, one by one, dial in the morphs to find the offending morph(s). Once you find them, delete the morphs from your HDD (click the Gear icon, Parameter Settings, and look at File Path for the asset to figure out where the morph is and what it is called). You should also resave the character with the offending morph(s) dialed out (set to 0)

i have to admit, that i did not bother to install the beta to play around with FT2 yet.
but i wonder...
would one not be able to use "usual" morph packages on these morphs?
i am still using G8 most of the time and my G9 library is limited,
but i would assume, that there will be a lot of morph packages around like it is already the case for G8.
would one really need a specific FT2 morph package?

Thanks for the comments, CHWT.

I agree, it would be great to get some morphs to fix the buccal area and weaker chin/neck definition.

There was an addon for the first version of the Face Transfer, so maybe some brave PA will create a new one.

Really puzzling.  So, Daz bought the rights to the character model from the PA, then radically changed the head and/or face?

I'd love to read the reasoning behind this, but I suspect Daz's general opacity (and maybe an NDA) will keep this weirdly mysterious.

 

Actually they included all the original parts as I understand it. The original face is included after all, they just added extra stuff to create a fuller package which is pretty cool. 

Huh? But to me, your Maryam morph looks totally different from the one in the store. Am I getting this wrong somehow? 
 

Oh, and thank you for including the info on the eyebrows!

You're welcome! I think the texture map maybe makes a big difference.  Besides the Helena map, I also used the Nala map with a slightly darker translucency colour, and the G9 Essentials materials

I don't think that's the same shirt. (sorry) The one in the store is buttoned all the way and doesn't appear to have a morph to "open" it. The sleeves are also different. (just trying to help) 

LOL!!! "And finally, Morph - Sci Fi 20/Texture Preset - 20" Kills me every time that comes up! LOL!!!
