When working With GenX, and you have your CR2 with the morph loaded, You MUST click the eyes as well, and the morphs that are directly related to the shape. Then with the eyes, head and all that makes the morph, I choose "create single morph". Most people just choose the head and forget that under L eye and R eye there are morphs that are related to the new face as well. These need to be translated as well in most cases.
That's where I was confused. I realize that dials have to be set for some characters, and if the dials were not set in the Michael 4 character before creating that morph, it would have been obvious that they weren't set properly in Michael 4 as well. But as you see from my screen shots, the eyes were set properly in Michael 4. So this appears to be related to eye translations. The morph was all properly dialed in on Michael 4 when I injected him into Michael 4, and looked exactly as shown in the left side of the two screen shots that I posted above. I then saved that as a CR2, just as the instructions said, and then dragged and dropped that CR2 into GenX.
When I brought it into GenX, there were no eye movement morphs to check, other than the standard Up/Down and Side/Side morphs which are rotational rather than translational. That seemed to indicate to me that the eye position change was done with translation dials, and not with a morph.
After dragging the CR2 (exactly as you see in those shots on the left) into GenX, there was a list of morphs to include/exclude for "Head", and a list for "Body." There were a couple of morphs for eyes, but they were Up/Down and Side/Side type morphs that also affected the eyelids. GenX didn't list anything at all for the eyes, and I couldn't figure out where I should look, or how to get them in there. There WERE no Morph Dials for "Rapper" transferred over to Genesis or Michael 5 to dial in. That was the problem.
So that is what prompted the questions. 8-)
