cool script, but no offense or anything, but dont you  think its just more worth your while to program the script to act on models created nativly in blender, just as an easier way to do facial morphs?  say for example, you define a closed loop as the mouth and another for eyebrows and so on, you could program your script to act apon thoes.  i think that would be much more original and much cooler.

No offense taken but hm, hm... I don't understand one thing. I have seen so many complaints how Blenders native import/export script isn't good for morph creation because it reorders vertex data and now, when I'm creating a script that not only doesn't do that, but It has ability to import existing morphs and it will have ability to export custom full body or partial morphs in PZ2  or obj format, I get responses like yours... And don't get me wrong, I don't mind to get critics, but I've hoped that I will get more responses and requests for features from people that are complained about Blenders ability to create morphs.

personaly,  it is my oppinion that blender has a unique degree of creativity from its users.  in other applications, this has been corrupted due poser's almost plajoristic ease of use.  Due to poser, i am seeing fewer and fewer artists with knowledge of how to author desent materials, little knowlege of render process, and even less knoledge of modeling and topology.  Poser has virtualy no commercial use compared other applications.  I find that the most satisfying work of art is one created on one's own and when that work of art is guilt free.

I agree that there is not many goo artists that are having know-how but... I'm not an artist. I only create tools an objects for artists. Beside that, I don't believe in theory that good artist must know everything about everything. If that would be the case then we would never have markets like this one. And about commercial use of Poser... Hm, I don't believe that so many people are paying $250 for Poser just for their own fun at home. Or maybe I'm wrong?
