Quote - > Quote - I am a dumb ass when it comes to poser file creation somewheres I am doing something wrong. I am thinking my problem is something I am doing in binary morph editor which I bought yesterday. I was wonder if you could elaborate more on exactly what you did there.

Quote - aella: I've uploaded your morphs to the developers site as PMDs. It's as I thought : once loaded into Antonia-96 and converted to deltas, they work fine with the latest Antonia.

Here's what I did in detail:

  1. Opened Poser and loaded Antonia-96.
  2. Loaded each of your obj files as a morph target.
  3. Saved the character under a new name.
  4. Opened BinaryMorphEditor and loaded the character file created in step 3.
  5. In the selection window that popped up, checked all morphs loaded in step 2 (here it paid off that I gave them all names starting with "aella-") and pressed "OK".
    6) Saved a PMD file.
    7) Saved binary injection and removal poses.

Here's what I think odf was proposing:

Load your morphs into Antonia 96 and then export each morph as a new obj morph so that you create new deltas. Those new obj morphs should, in turn, work in the new Antonia. I'm 90% certain that's what he was suggesting. I think he meant for you to bypass pmd injection altogether until you create the new deltas and have them loaded into the newest version of Antonia.

Yes, I think that's basically what I was suggesting. The workflow I described above is one way to achieve that. But I'm confused as what you mean by 'obj morphs'. Exporting new obj files will not work. One needs to create deltas based on Antonia-96 and export those deltas. One way to do that is to load all those morphs into Poser and create a new cr2. The new cr2 will then contain the deltas that can be extracted into INJ/REM poses.

For new morphs based on Antonia-114, the workflow is basically the same. The only thing to remember is to load the obj files as morph targets into whatever version of the figure they were made from. Once the deltas are created, they should be freely exchangeable (except maybe for very sensitive ones like nipple morphs - no pun intended).

aella, which step were you struggling with?
