Oh, using a text editor there is another way you can do this, similar to hiding the figure, only what you are doing is hacking the cr2 so that only the head and eyes load. You are still calling the original object.

To do this make a copy of the cr2, I will use V3 as my example.

I change the name of the cr2 to V3head.cr2 so as not to overwrite my original.

In a text editor, near the top, you will see a list of the body parts, that will look something like this:

actor hip:1
{
storageOffset 0 0 0
geomHandlerGeom 13 hip
}
actor abdomen:1
{
storageOffset 0 0 0
geomHandlerGeom 13 abdomen
}

etc. for each body part

Delete the following lines:

storageOffset 0 0 0
geomHandlerGeom 13 "name of body part here"

For all body parts - except the head and eyes - it will look something like this for all the empty body parts

actor hip:1
{

}
actor abdomen:1
{

}

Again, do not delete the lines for the head and eyes. This tells Poser to load these parts of the mesh when loading the figure.

Save the file.

When you load it in Poser, only the head with the eyes will load. Again, you can use morphmanager to delete any unneeded morphs from the cr2.
