*I've been looking for SVDL but am having trouble finding it. Any tips?

*Skeetshooter - SVDL is the Member Name of the gracious artist whom wrote SpawnCharacter.py, as well as RemoveMorphs.py, not an it...(heha)

"There are scripts for nearly everything, I'm surprised that there isn't just one simple script that you can use to just have all of the morphs that you didn't dial up, deleted... not just hidden."

Acadia - SVDL's RemoveMorphs.pydoes remove the morphs that you hav'nt dialed in(Any set to zero.)  I think I remember SVDL saying something about just hiding some part of something, but run the script, you'll still see a huge reduction in the file size of your .PZ3.  My 250MB V3CharacterStudy.PZ3, saves at about 50MBs after I've just run this one script!  I think what he meant was that the morphs data itself is actually deleted, but then the "Dial," part of the GUI, is only really hidden.

*"I think it's the    stripzero.py,  and / or spawncharacter.py"

*Acadia - StripZero.py is Ockham's script, but I believe it is only meant to remove morphs from a .PZ2.  Ockahm's StripZeroCR2.py is, I believe, very similar to SVDL's RemoveMorphs.py, but that it only works on a .CR2 file, while SVDL's script works on a .CR2 that exists inside a .PZ3(So, it really works on the .PZ3...)

" Either way, it sounds complicated."

*Acadia - I often wonder how often I'll have the chance to offer advice, before you you'd get there for me.  If you ever need my help; especially for something as useful as this, please just ask,  I'll be glad to have a round of E-Mail Tag with you!
