Attached above is the text of the "116B-Hi-Geom-MJ.pz2", a file to inject the 116B geometry with MikeJ's UV mapping into the high res figure. It is the complement to the "116A-Hi-Geom.pz2" file that injects the standard 116A geometry with the old UV mapping. Both these files inject geometry on a one obj file per actor basis, rather than using a single obj that contains all the geometry for the entire figure. The actor by actor approach to injecting the geom (objFileGeom) seems necessary, as I have not found a way to to inject a whole figure geometry (figureResFile).

Both of the files mentioned above can be used on either the "Antonia-116-altUVs" figure, or the "Antonia-114" figure, and hopefully on the standard Antonia-116 figure when it is released. They should not be used on the low res figures, I have made separate goem-injection files for the low res figures.

The main idea behind the geometry injection (at the moment) is to allow textures that use different UV mapping to be used on the same figure whilst it is loaded in Poser, with the figure still maintaining the same morphs and morph settings when  either geometry is injected. This would not be the case if you merely used the Poser "Change Figure" (single tick) function. In that case injected morphs and morph settings would be lost.

As odf pointed out, this is only experimental stuff. I'm posting the files here in case anyone is interested in following the progress of these experiments, or wants to help with them, but in truth it is probably only of interest to odf and myself at the moment. Anyone who does want to try out the geom-injection poses will also need to download and install the obj files from these links:
