How can I load a series of INJ that I use often all at the same time? I should try to keep unnecessary INJ away from my base character - is this right? Thanks! ARP

When you are satisfied with a character you created save the corresponding Mat/Mor pose so next time you'll just have to load the morphs you need and their correct setting with one click. DAZ sells a couple of utilities to create injection poses: Injection Pose Builder and Injection Magic.

THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING!! THANK YOU THANK YOU! Do I need Injection Pose Builder and/or Injection Magic to save the corresponding Mat/Mor pose? Or can I create MAT right in poser? ARP

A Mat pose is a pose that only load textures and material information. A Mor pose is a pose that only set a value for a morph that is yet present in a figure. A mat/mor pose do both thinghs. An injection pose inject the morphs in a figure that has only some place holders for them called morph channels. Curious Labs, the makers of Poser do not officially support Mat/Mor or injection poses. They are discoveries made by advanced users that hacked Poser's file formats. You need third party utilities to create them... unless you want to learn how to text edit a Poser cr2 in order to save it as a pz2. Injection Pose Builder and Injection Magic create only injection poses (those poses that just load the morphs and their settings). There are free utilities in the Poser free stuff section to create Mat poses starting from a cr2. There are also commercial utilities i the Market Place too. If you use Poser 5 there is a free Python script to create Mat poses. You can find it in free stuff section too. For the injection pose check DAZ site under the software/utilities section and see what is best for you and your pockets :) There should be a free utility too, but I just can't remember at the moment sorry.

For ease of use, I have the following in my own folder in "Figures" The base figures, without morphs, as supplied. In my own "Custom Figures" subfolder: The base figures with all morphs loaded, for character development. The morphed character without clothes or hair. Sometimes I will also have the morphed character with clothes and hair. This applies to characters bought from other artists as well as my own characters, although I usually group bought stuff in a relevant folder, such as "V3 characters" etc.
