@ Mark@poser,
I can see how the tutorial might be a bit daunting if you have not done much of this sort of stuff before.
If you like I could try to make a pz2 (pose) file to fix your problem with the eyes. It should not take me long, and seeing a file for your specific situation, might help you understand how this stuff is done. To make the file I would need some information from you.
1). I would need to know the name of the figure e.g. "Victoria 3 RR", "Victoria 3 SAE", "!Aiko 3 LE", "JessiCasual", or what ever.
2). The internal and dial name of the targetGeom (morph) channel that houses the morph. If you imported the morph as an OBJ through the Poser Interface "Object > Load Morph Target", then the internal name should be the same as the dial name. If not, and you don't know the internal name, you will need to have the character saved in uncompressed CR2 format, not CRZ. Open it in a text editor, use the name that appears on the dial as a Search string. The first instance of the Search string may be a 'valueParm channel, you are looking for a 'targetGeom' channel. I need to know the name in that 'targetGeom' channel, e.g. "targetGeom PBMCC_05", or "targetGeom MyMorph", what ever. All names are case sensitive, "MyMorph" is not the same as "mymorph".
3). For the third and last piece of information, you will need to have Poser set to use "Poser native units" in the General Properties, as accessed from the Edit menu. Once you have Poser set to use native units, then apply the head morph, set its dial to a value of "1.000", translate the eyes until they are in the desired position, then note down the value of each translate channel. So the information you would give me, if you want to go with this is:
Figure name ?
Dial name ?
Internal name targetGeom ?
xTran leftEye ?
xTran rightEye ?
yTran leftEye ?
yTran rightEye ?
zTran leftEye ?
zTran rightEye ?
I can't guarantee that I can produce a file that works for you, but I think there is a very good chance. Do you want to give it a go?
