Here I go again! I tried to figured it out...I have tried and tried and tried....NO SOLUTIONS!! it's driving me NUTS!:( Somehow, with some morphs I always obtain 'exploding' polygons!What can I do?(is there a way to avoid this problem? or when we encounter it...to correct it easily?) Geez, tomorrow i'll have to shop at the wig store cause I haven't any hair left!LOL

Whatever modelling program you are using seems to be re-ordering the vertexes in the morph target. What program are you using?

I am using Lightwave to create everything....the make the setup in poser for the character(grouping etc) and when I add new morphs target...this is when it happens...

One of the big culprits for this in LW is using the cut and paste. Say, you cut the nose off and paste it into another layer to work on, and then paste it back onto the face. If you export the head as an object you'll probably get wrong # of vertices error. If you use the merge command and then export the head, the # of vertices will be right, but the morph will explode. Apparently LW reorders the vertices when merging objects. So that's one thing to avoid. Regards- Lemurtek

Ok..but the fact is that I only use the cut-paste unless I really need to cut something...I prefer for this matter using copy and I paste in another layer (but is it still changing all my # ???) Has anyone come up with a little something , a little magic trick maybe?? :) hehe

Neftis...No hair?? .... I don't believe it :-) (sorry couldn't help this entirely unhelpful post_ but this is a sort of 'bookmark' because I'd like to see the solution as its happened to me from Rhino on a couple of occasions!)

Only thing I can suggest is that you track down a copy of Compose and see if that helps. I don't know too much about it so I'm not sure if that will work, but it rings a bell for this sort of problem. Traveller could probably tell you. I seem to remember he used to have a tute on using compose to stop Rhino doing this.

I use Lightwave to model and make morphs for my clothing and I never get this exploding thing. First of all are you using endomorphs when making your morphs in Lightwave? I make all my morphs as endomorphs in LW, then I create a different file for each body group,and then I use an LScript graciously provided by Daz on their site that will export each endomorph as an obj. and it works flawlessly.

Well, if you ever want to market an alien head...
