hi Jagger once helped me on a question almost like these. today my problem is : i have a rsr of a helmet on poser and i want to morph it, so i exported as .obj and in max i made my changes and saved it. opened poser and the helmet then i load the morph a new dial was created(shape1),now when i move the dial ALL object moves and morphs, what i want to do is just morph... can you help me??? thanks

The x, y, and z coordinants have changed from those of the original object. To correct this: 1) Load the original figure 2) Import the new object you created 3) Position the new object exactly over the original figure 4) Export the new object to itself 5) Now reload the morph from teh just changed and positioned object file. This will put the x, y, and z coordinants of the morph to the orginal x, y, and z coordinants of the figure itself. This is just a fix for this problem. It should have worked, but something changed the coordinants when you were doing the morph, or the object wasn't located at it's default position when you exported it to make the morphs. This used to drive me crazy until I figured it out. Now I actually use it as a method to put some sway into the morph. Hope this helps!

The secret is to take the OBJ file straight from Geometries as your morph stock. Exporting offers Poser the opportunity to introduce information that you do not want. To save what you have done this time: You can also save your morph by putting the OBJ file you exported from Poser, in Geometries and deleteing the rsr there. Now the base and its morph will work from the same place. You will need to fiddle with the location dials to get the object back where you want it, in this case, probably by zeroing, since the OBJ that you exported had the location as a part.
