The best results I ever got with ERC was when I wrote it this way: valueOpDeltaAdd conformingTarget rCollar [morphname] deltaAddDelta 1.000 I always do multiple character scenes. ERC tends to work in single character scenes but seriously messes up in mulitple character scenes. I've written a little Python script that copies the morph seettings from a character to its conformed clothes - doesn't matter whether the character or one of its conforming clothes is selected. It still needs some tweaking (it doesn't copy morphs from non-matching actors - yet). It's possible to attach a python script to a cr2 or pp2 that runs on loading the figure/prop. That script then would have to install a callback function that gets called whenever the figure is conformed to another figure (or in the case of a prop, when it is parented to a figure). And this callback then should install other callback functions that would copy morph/JCM values from the conformingTarget to the clothing figure/prop. I'm still figuring out how to handle deletion of clothing figures and prop - the callbacks should be removed then. The main advantage of this approach would be the total and complete elimination of crosstalk. I'm going to try the the Netherworks approach too. It IS a lot easier to do.
