You can fix a specific Mimic pose file by opening it in a text editor like Notepad or BBEditLight and changing any morph names that are different on a particular figure. An easier way is to fix the figures by taking a single morph that's misnamed, set its value to 1, and spawn a new morph target. You will end up with an extra dial, that has the right internal name and will take the setting from a Mimic pose. If you just rename the dial, you don't correct the internal name. If you change the internal names or delete the original morph dial after spawning the new one, any other pose files that use the original names will no longer work. (BTW, my Xpression products can be used with Mimic. Of course, if you check the boxes in Mimic for adding eye and brow movements, the poses will affect the eye expressions.) If anyone is interested, I'll put together a list of non-Mimic-conforming internal morph names for Vic, Mike, Steph and the kids, and post it. Now that DAZ owns Mimic, we can expect that not only will any Mimic upgrade better support its figures, but that new versions of Millennium figures will have speech morphs optimized for its use. This is a great development! Elisa/gryffnn
