Hi is it possible to transfer materials between figures of the same geometry? In other words, I have a P4 female figure to which I have added a material (through the grouping tool). Now I have another P4 Fem who I want to set up with the same materials. This new figure also has some added materials, so I can't just use my first figure with new morphs or textures. The original materials need to be transfered. Is there a way to do it? Thanks.

heyas; if you're using all the same base figure (ie: p4nf, which you are), you can probably do it. will it be easy? not really. hmmm... okay, the first think i would try is this: load your modified figure. now select the figure you want to add the new mat/group to. then replace the figure, and tell it to 'keep modified/custom geometries.' that should do it. if not, you can paste them from one cr2 to the other in cr2edit by john stallings. you need to copy the geomcustom from the top of the new figure's cr2 into the body part of the next figure's cr2. (replace the geomhandler and storage offset lines). you can also, while you're there, go down to the figure section and grab the new materials settings and copy them over. um, hopefully, the first method will work! ;)
