I decided, rather than update my Songbird ReMix CR2 and update the 150+ MATs, to do an INJ/REM for some special morphs to new characters. I used the DAZ deltas, chanvis folders for a template and built my INJ/REM files for each new morph... They load no problem, but the INJ morphs don't show up. What am I doing wrong?

Here's the INJ/REM files: http://www.empken.com/sbrminj.zip (26kb)

What do you mean by "the INJ morphs don't show up"? I opened two of your delta files 'INJBug.pz2' and 'INJFinchBeak.pz2'. The channels appear to be slaved to themselves, creating a logical loop (that's bad).

   actor 
        {
                channels
                {
                targetGeom 
                        {
                        name Bug
                        interpStyleLocked 0
                        

I sugest you delete the slaving code (marked in read). Or if your intension was to slave the morph to a valueParm channel in the 'BODY', edit the slaving code so that the actor name is 'BODY:1'. not 'tail:1'. Message edited on: 05/26/2005 13:34

Oh, I see how the "valueOpDeltaAdd" section of code works now... What I was after (using the xample posted) was to insert the "Bug" morph in the "tail" section along with the tail's already existing morphs. I did delete that section of code but still no morphs show up.

Okay, I did find out what was wrong... I need to add "hidden" morphs to the .CR2, even though the morphs aren't included
there, for example:

...
targetGeom Bug
{
hidden 1
}
...

So I guess I need a service release on my .CR2 anyways to get the new morphs...

thanks for your help

Yes, injection can only happen into an existing channel;

           targetGeom something<br></br>                        {<br></br><br></br>                       }

You can't inject a whole new channel, but as long as you have at least the minimum shell of a channel, the channel type/name line, and opening and closing braces (as above), you can inject into that.
