I finally got to install V3 (after a bunchload of error messages caused by an un-updated Poser). Now I can't seem to find my way using morphs. Can anyone guide me through my first steps? What are INJections? I'm kinda lost here.

I hate to be obvious, and this isn't meant to be an insult, but did you take a look at the ReadMe files included with V3??? I ask because I often forget how much information the creator of a product will put in a ReadMe that would be useful to review before I try using the product. You might also read the DAZ faq on "How do I use Victoria 3.0" (I've provided the link.) I'm sure other people will have better advice, but this might give you a start.

LOL dialyn...you aren't the only one guilty of not reading the readmes....I do it all the time, then wonder why I can't find something that I just installed. Doh!! ;o). Laurie

Go to the Pose folder and look for the !V3 morph folders. (I moved and renamed mine, so I don't remember their exact names.) Select a folder, and double click on a morph. You now have the morph installed. You may need to click on a different body part, then back to the body part that has the morph for it to show up. Yep, the readmes help a lot. (Of course, sometimes the Barbarian method works, too: Hit button, see if something happens. Hit another button, see if something else happens.) ;-) Cheers!

Thanks! Once more you've been very helpful. I'll be delighting you soon with some of my works. :)

Some of the readme files barely provide any useful information. But then you'd know that if you read them!

It's pretty self explainatory. INJ files add morphs REMs remove them. They also have a little Plus or minus in the thumbnail incase you forget what folder you are in. :D Having Just got V3 and played with her this afternoon, I have to say I LOVE the Injection concept. At first it seemed like it would slow down my character designing by adding an extra step, but actually once you get the hang of it it's faster because you don't waste as much time looking for a morph in a huge list. Another brilliant thing was once I was happy with the face I created I spawned a morph target and hit the REMove all face morphs button. and I was left with a nice clean character with just the one Morph target. which I can now add expressions to. :D
