About BreastUp and BreastDown

These are not in fact morphs. These are complicated code thingies that use V4's built in magnets. To use, you must apply to the clothing, the Magnetise to V4 pose in the DAZ V4 folder.  This will attach the clothing to the joint magnets and make the breast movement morphs work, as well as all the other v4 magnet corrections that turn on during bends.

 

Using Morphing Clothes

When it starts you are in the Figure Tab.

This is where you load your cr2. if you are using v4 load her here, you will see no morphs loaded. this is expected.

V4 (and all gen 4 figures) load with empty slots for morphs to be injected. this helps keep filesize slimmer for better render times.

On the bottom right of the screen you will see Inject.  Click this and brows to where your v4 morph injections are stored, usually Libraries:pose:DAZ Victoria4:MorphInjections  Load up all the ones marked INJ that you need.

Now in Morphing Clothes you will see a list of zillions of morphs. It shows the master dial in Body as well as the other dials in all other body parts. Just worry about Body.

At the bottom of the screen choose Select and Body. that should highlight all Body morphs in the figure. deselect any you do not want to transfer

Now go to the Transfer Tab. THe important options are dress/not dress , Enable Crosstalk (usually yes), and the output option. When you are happy with the settings,  click trasnfer and go get a cuppa coffee.  AFter a few minutes the morphs will transfer, and you can go load your destination cr2 in poser and see how it worked.

You do NOT need to add channels to the clothing with MorphManager, MorphingClothes does that itself. You cannot copy morphs from mesh A to MeshB directly, MorphManager is only useful for copying morphs from identical figures. Say V4 to V4 or so forth. It was created circa Poser4, so it does not 'understand' all the new innovations in cr2s. I generally suggest NOT using it these days. If I must trasbfer morphs at the cr2 level, I use PoserFileEditor which is a full featured Poser file format editor and kept up to date.

More Breast Options

If the built in breast options arent working for you, check out Posermatics exhaustive series of breast morphs for v4 over at DAZ. NaturalGravity Morphs, Natural Breast Morphs, Natural Petite .. several hundred breast morphs all told. These will most likely need transferral or magnets to add the fits to clothing.
