*"IIRC, you started this thread/process off with the intention of transfering some morphs from V1 (?) to V3... I don't recall off-hand how similar thier face shapes are, but things are going to go badly if they are very much different."
*That's apparently a bit of a limitation with the present method, as well. V3 to V1 actually works fairly well, although I haven't tested any complex morphs involving the ears, which don't line up - I don't have any V3 shaping morphs. JoePublic has found some trouble transferring morphs between dissimilar heads, but found a workaround involving lining up the geometries so the mouths corresponded decently with one another. This makes me wonder if some sort of 'marker' method could be used. Place a box at the mouth, nose, ears, for both the source and the target, and correlate verts and polys within the corresponding boxes. Maybe.
I guess we'll see.... All of this probably deserves a smarter programer. Then it would probably end up being a 'for sale' script somewhere, however.
Thank you again. I hope to get things together to start testing these ideas, within the next few days. I'm slowly groping toward both an understanding and a seemingly feasible structure. Hopefully.... :)

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking. He apologizes for this. He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.
Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below. His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
