Hi all,

I just got Mimic 3 Pro and am trying to use it in DAZ Studio 3 with one of my characters that I created from V4 and all of her morphs.
In DAZ studio I get my character loaded, bring up Lip Sync, load the sound file I made for my character, analyze it so it works with her talking, then launch Mimic Pro.
In Mimic Pro I can only load the base CR2 file for V4, so I am not working with my character.
In Mimic I play with my own sound file and the phonemes and get them to work pretty well with the V4 CR2 file. I save it as a project, not knowing what to save it as so I can apply it to my own character in DAZ Studio.
When I click to go back to DAZ Studio I choose to replace the sound file that I just made in Mimic, but it does not seem to change or make my character speak any better.
How do I apply the sound track I made in Mimic to my character in DAZ?

Thank you very much!

You need to export a pose (.pz2, I expect, or maybe .fc2) from Mimic then apply that to your V4 character in DS.

Thanks RH, your sugestion about saving as a pz2 file seems to help.

Here is the video I made after tweeking in Mimic Pro and DAZ Studio.

I also used the FX Pro Studio to get the lights in the background, animated.

Looks like Carara Pro and Mimic has more control but I have not bought Mimic for Carrara yet, or used Carara very much at this time.
