ok here's the deal....i'm working on my first movie...i made a head for my female....used the minnie from the pro pack and replaced her head....ok now the head is static as it is a prop...i add the morph target for closing the eyes.....dial it up to one...and blamo...the above image results...can anyone help?

heyas; the vertex order has somehow been changed. i dont know what a minnie is, or whose head you're replacing with who.... but okay, you took a head and somehow made it a prop. then you loaded the morph from the head that was still on the figure onto the prop. right? whatever you did to make the head a prop, you have to do the same to the head-with-the-morph-dial-on to make a morph for the head that is a prop. for example, if you exported the head from poser, then imported the obj and saved as prop... you need to load the head (on a figure), set the eye close dial to 1, and export that head from poser as a morph target to load onto your prop. why? well, cuz poser changed the vertex order, apparently. :/

well what i did was use a ready made figure....then i made the head and eyes invisible...now that i think about it i shoulda replaced body part with prop...ok anyway.....so i imported the prop....and placed it where the head goes on the figure......and created my lil cr2 thingy...then i edited the original prop in another program...imported it into poser...then exported it as a .obj file...and checked the box that says "eport as morph target"...and still this crap happens which is why i am so puzzled

I'm just a newbie, but would 'Another program" be Amorphium (Pro)? That would explain everything.

no the other program i used for the modeling was the rhino 2.0 demo...and for moving the eyelids i used anim8or....but i've noticed the problem with amorphium...seems it revereses the normals when you import to poser

You could try the Amorphium Pro trick that gets around the problem of changing vertex order. That is: import the prop to Rhino, then export and re-import it. That procedure just might get the vertex order right when you export the finished morph. p.s. reversing the normals is more of a texture problem.

heyas; i think that's your problem. maybe. instead of editing the original prop to make the morph for the head that you stuck in the cr2, export that head/prop/thing and use THAT to make your morphs. maybe. i don't think i'm following the description of your processes very well. :)
