I am working on an animation project where my basic P4 woman body and all my existing cloths work well. The options for her head however are limited. I thought I might just attach Vicky 3 or Steph Petite's head onto Posettes body. I have alot of characters, hair, and expressions for millenium Characters. I also thought that cutting down on the V3 body Mesh size might help performance. If this is possible, please walk me through it - I am a bit new to modifying characters this way. JP

The hybrid figure is available at Netherworks Studios.

I assume you don't have Vicki 2? There's the V2P4 option if you do.

I do have Vicky 2 - I was never sure what the V2P2 option did. I guess I need to read the readme - or doc where ever that is. I actually tried with reasonable success to stick the head on the body via making body parts invisible and parenting the head to the neck. Is there a way to export / re-import a body part - such as vickys head?

What we've been trying to explain is that you don't need to do any of this. ;-) If you have V2P4, then you have a figure who can wear Posette clothing, but have the full set of Vicki 2 head morphs. If you would prefer Vicki 3's head, just download the V3P4 figure from Netherworks. The method you're describing will only ever give you "reasonable" results at best. There will be gaps, maybe visible seams where you join the two meshes together. You would need to involve a 3D modelling program to get it right. But why bother when others have done the work for you?
