im sure that you can distribute the mesh if you used v3 m3 or any other mesh like that as a visual ref and only that. im a little rusty on copyright law but i think you gotta change the mesh 75% from the normal b4 the product becomes yours to distribute. Um. Rubbish. You cannot distribute the actual mesh under any circumstances. Not even if you change it. If you think I'm wrong about that, you might want to check out the copyright forum here. You also cannot directly distribute morphs for the unimesh characters, which is why merchants create inj and rem poses for their products. These use the mesh and morphs owned by DAZ, but do not disribute them. There are several excellent tutorials on making MAT poses here on renderosity: that's the one-click solution for skin textures. The one-click solution for morphs is the INJ/REM pose. INJection Pose Builder will do this for you, as will Injection Magic. Une INJection Pose Builder if you've created a character using only the DAZ-created morphs. Use Injection magic if you have created custom morphs yourself or are using custom morphs made by someone else - like the huge expansion packs that are brokered at DAZ. (Remember to make it clear which additional morph packs are needed when you sell or distribute your character). There's an IPB tutorial on the DAZ site (look under "tutorial arcarna". Can INJection Magic take this character, who now has a bunch of magnets all over him that I cant delete, and make a single INJ/REM that will apply all the morphs AND mags? I don't use IM, so I'm not certain, but it was marketed as a tool that could create an inj pose to combine custom morphs with morphs made by others, for legal distribution. You'll probably need to spawn morph targets from your magnets, but yes, IM is supposed to be able to do what you want.
