Does anyone know of an easier way to transfer MT settings from Left chest to right (or vice-versa) on Vicky other than twiddling the individual parameter dials? The figure symmetry menu item only seems to affect limbs. Buck

You could try Masa's "MTmirror"... Check the links at right

Which link would that be???

Here's the URL http://www.eurus.dti.ne.jp/~masasi/PROGRAM/MTmirrorU.html It's Masa's program. His main page URL is http://www.eurus.dti.ne.jp/~masasi/index.html It is a brand new program, and there haven't been many reports of how it works. I don't know if it will work with Vicki or not. She seems to be "different" in many ways, and some "standard" tricks don't work with her.

Are you asking about making morphs yourself? or applying already loaded morphs? MTmirror is for making morphs, and a handy program it is. You have to dial in each morph. If you are going to on/off the morphs, you can use the short cut under body and set up whole body morphs.

Jaager caused me to think in another direction. I don't know if it will work with aftermarket morphs, but set your dials on one side chest (for example), click edit/copy or press control/c, then select the other side chest, click edit/paste or press control/v

Specifically what I'm now doing is... Starting with a Vicky fully loaded with MTs, I pose her left collar, setting parameter dials for breast size, droop, etc. until I have the effect I'm looking for (possibly a dozen settings). Now I note all the settings for the left collar, go to the right collar, and individually set each parameter dial the same as the corresponding dial for the left collar. My question is, is there an easier way of doing this? (it seems like the figure symmetry function should do this, but it won't) I'll download Masa's program and play with it I'll also see if I can find any way to do the copy and paste thing. Letcha know if I find a way... Otherwise, it'll have to continue being the "brute force" method. :) Buck

Did you try copy/paste like I suggested above? It works for the stock morphs. I haven't tried it with morphs made by others.

wyrwulf!!.... Your technique works great!!! I never knew Poser supported copy and paste operations for MTs. Thanks a lot! One happy Buck :))

Happy to help. It will work for posing, too, but it usually reverses the pose for the opposite side.

I will have to try that. One suggestion: after you have your collars formed just so, save as a new cr2, open it in MorphManager, select a collar and combine the morphs into one. (char)breasts. export it if you want it in your morph library, delete the constituent morphs, repeat for other side, save the cr2. When you open in Poser set dial to 1.0. I suggest not including any "gravity" morphs in the combined one or deleting same. As you use different poses you will need to adjust those. If the conformation looks good, share the combined morphs.
