I refer to it as the "undercut Dodger" tutorial because M3 users begged and pleaded for a way to use morphs on the M3-M2 figure's body, and were told "no" for quite a while. The justification was that there was no point to morphing that figure because it was made to wear M2 clothes and they wouldn't fit right if the figure was morphed. Pointing out things like The Tailor to add matching morphs did no good. Then Dodger released his "Daniel, the Aeon Hero" figure, a Mike 3 reshaped to match Mike 2's body and wear his clothes, but with the ability to use M3's morphs. If you look at the release date at Poser Pros and the tutorial date at DAZ, and assuming they're correct (not adjusted because of edits, updates, etc), Dodger released Daniel on May 14, 2004 and suddenly, on May 19, 2004, DAZ finally put out a tutorial showing us how to do what we'd been asking for since M3's release, essentially allowing you to create a Daniel for free and eliminating the need for Dodger's product. I can't say there was any connection there, but you have to admit, given that Dodger and DAZ had recently had a falling out, the timing is awfully suspicious. If BastBlack's idea doesn't work, does turning dials in individual body parts work? Are the morphs themselves broken, or only the control dials in the body?
